The present paper introduces an original approach for the validation of learning objects (LOs) within an online Community of Practice (CoP). A social validation has been proposed based on two features: (1) the members’ assessments, which we have formalized semantically, and (2) an expertise-based learning approach, applying a machine learning technique. As a first step, we have chosen Neural Networks because of their efficiency in complex problem solving. An experimental study of the developed prototype has been conducted and preliminary tests and experimentations show that the results are significant.
