RESUMO

During the last decades the cultural industry succeeded in promoting and approving increasingly stricter national and international intellectual property protection laws to the detriment of society at large. Innovations are becoming more and more inhibited due to the fact that new knowledge is always built on previous knowledge with an access control getting increasingly tighter over time. The school as institution is, in particular, seriously affected by unbalanced intellectual property protection laws. The school is less and less capable of providing to its students an education it considers most proper due to financial restrictions and ever increasing costs of contents of educational interest. This dissertation presents a contribution to promote the sharing of "open" contents, i.e. contents published by their authors under licenses of use with less restrictions than the ones by default imposed by copyright laws. The target population of the developed system is the school community. As well as offering a directory for open contents, the system provides an alternative way of navigation in the content universe stored in the hierarchical directory by the way of "associative" indices defined by registered users.
