Information is ubiquitous, available from many distinct sources and the main issue is to get just the right piece of information that might satisfy our specific needs. Many of these sources organize their informational resources on a given ontology. However, these ontologies are static and do not allow for personalization. This fact degrades the value of the service if there is no easy mental mapping between user specific needs and the general source ontology. Organizing informational resources according to particular needs might increase users’ satisfaction and save their time. In this paper we present a methodology to filter and organize informational resources according to users’ interests, thus granting users with a personalized edition of the resource, especially tailored towards their specific needs. We believe that this methodology may be applied in educational scenarios, where we have a repository of educational objects that are organized according to specific objectives, automatically producing specific courseware. Our experimental results confirm that it is possible to automatically personalize document resources with high precision at a reduced editor workload.engconference object
