This document discusses using social network analysis and game theory to enhance cooperation networks. It describes research on COalitions in COOperation Networks (COCOON) which uses social network analysis and agent-based simulation to study factors that influence cooperation in networks. The research aims to develop a Network Awareness Tool and recommender system called COCOON CORE to help bring together individuals interested in collaborating. It evaluates different aspects like quality and usability. In conclusion, it discusses how knowledge, cooperation and influence can help individuals work together to create new things and proposes COCOON as a way to do this.

123. Network Awareness Tool

124. Network Awareness Tool
(NiB / NAT)
• can visualise teacher-teacher and teacher-theme
relations
• can map the informal reality
• is a supporting instrument
• is a reflection instrument
• is a social browser (Yellow Pages)

125. Network Awareness Tool
(NiB / NAT)
• is not an Intranet
• is not another Facebook
• is not a standalone tool

126. Added value for professionals
• Awareness
• Peer support
• Realise that we do not have to rely on a single
expert
• Join networks to build knowledge together
• Realise how valuable conversations with my peers
are and what benefits they have

127. Added value for management
• See what really ‘drives’ the organisation
• Detect core themes/interests
• See learning networks and communities
• See how and with whom teachers cooperate
• Utilize existing informal learning networks
• Support informal relations
