Abstract

The chapter analyzes the theme of collaboration in scientific research through Web 2.0 IT tools and a constructivist approach to knowledge, learning, and e-learning. It analyzes, in particular, the case of Sulcis CCS Summer School. Organized by ENEA, Sotacarbo, and the University of Cagliari, the school provided information and materials on technological aspects of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). This work might become the model for a new approach to education and research thanks to collaborative learning using the LMS Moodle. In this case study, the construction of knowledge moves from a teacher-centered model to one based on a community of practice. This model is naturally a “prototype,” an experiment in progress, that needs to be refined through further experiences.
