SemBoK

As part of a Community Of Practice building exercise we’re doing with Project10X, I have volunteered to put together an outline of a “Semantic Body of Knowledge” or SemBoK for short. What we’re trying to do is put a vast array of competencies into an organized structure. I’ve got a reasonable start. It will become public in the near future, but in the mean time I’m looking for a few people who would give it a rigorous critique.

I’ve identified 60 competencies, and have a paragraph on about half of them so far. Hopefully by the time you read this I will have a first draft of all 60. I expect it to be 10-14 pages long at completion.  It’s organized a bit like a college curriculum (although it’s been a long time since I’ve been in college).

I’m looking for people to review it for completeness and relevance (i.e., are their topics under or over represented) and to edit the descriptions and fill in the suggested readings for each topic. If you’re interested, and would really commit to preparing a critique, email me and I’ll get you a draft: mccomb <at> semanticarts.com
