The objective of this research is to present a systematic analysis, in which we seek to identify the concepts of intelligent city, with the intention of recognizing the nature of this intelligence before the participation of the population. Therefore, the research associates concepts as smart cities, citizen participation and social web, identifying publications between 2012 and the first quarter of 2018 and questioning what the intelligent city is and how this concept is able to (re)organize the learning processes of the territory from the informal dynamics of the contemporary city. The qualitative analysis of the documents revealed an innumerable of definitions and related terms: smart, intelligent, ubiquitous, digital, knowledge, sustainable, crowd sourcing, innovative; structured in three types of approaches: technological focus, focus on human resources and focus on citizen-related governance from the following domains: media convergence, public and regulatory information policies, infrastructure management, real-time data mining and extraction, geographic information system, crowd computing, smart cities education, and social monitoring and control. In spite of the access to a great amount of data, we verify that the concept of intelligent city is referenced by a significant number of researches, but, in smaller number, works that present models of construction of a collective intelligence for the city. From this perspective, we identified the need to recognize technological education interventions for communication between individuals and the city. Because we believe that only through the implementation and management of techno-educommunication ecosystems will be able to promote a culture of participation.

“…Schneider et al [13], in the absence of a consensus, present as the definition of crowd computing the variety of tools that allow the sharing of ideas, the non-hierarchical decision making, and the full utilization of the world's cognitive surplus. The social curation web sites fit this definition because their social capacities allow the exchange of ideas, the websites don't employ any kind of hierarchy in its curation practices, and make use of the world's cognition.…”

“…Lastly, the social curation websites fit the concept of social computation, defined by Schneider and colleagues [13][15] [16] [17] as being an area of computation concerned with the intersection of social behavior with computational systems, having as its core the links and social contexts maintenance with software support and technology for people having an active social life.…”

This paper analyzes five social curation tools, chosen for having a relevant number of users and for being subject of other academic studies. Based on existing literature, the concepts of curation, digital curation, and social curation are discussed. Three main research questions are the objective of the research: how 'social' are the studied tools, if they are adequate to crowd work,and how good they are as search engines. It is concluded that in the current state of affairs, these tools are quite social as social media sites, but little social as social curation sites; that they are not adequate to crowd work. It is observed, however, that these tools use the wisdom of the crowds to filter the vast web content, and that they may be seen as crowd computing tools.

“…A primeira delas refere-se ao foco estreito da maioria dos estudos envolvendo as plataformas de curadoria social sobre alguns sites como o Pinterest. Em primeiro lugar, uma análise exploratória das plataformas de notícias sociais foi conduzida, sob a perspectiva da "Computação de Multidões" (Gomes et al, 2013;Moraes et al, 2014;Oliveira et al, 2015), em busca de desafios e questões de pesquisa (Padoa et al, 2015), que também produziu uma tipologia destas aplicações (Schneider, de Souza & Lucas, 2014). Esta pesquisa inicial nos ofereceu uma oportunidade de pesquisa e design: os ambientes de notícias sociais.…”

Resumo: Neste artigo descrevemos o segundo ciclo de construção e avaliação do Acropolis, uma plataforma de computação social que permite aos cidadãos construir e compartilhar suas narrativas pessoais sobre histórias noticiosas complexas ou de longa duração. Resultados experimentais produzidos por meio de avaliações quantitativas e qualitativas demonstraram, através de evidências positivas, que a nossa abordagem proposta foi capaz de apoiar o envolvimento dos cidadãos na curadoria colaborativa de conteúdo de notícias. Usando a metodologia de pesquisa ADR concluímos o segundo ciclo deste estudo com um conjunto de recomendações de design para a construção de plataformas semelhantes.Palavras-chave: Curadoria social; narrativas curadas pelo usuário; crowdsourcing; design science research Building a social curation environment to engage citizens in news stories: an ADR case Abstract: In this article we describe the second design and evaluation cycle of Acropolis, a social computing platform that allows citizens to build and share their personal narratives about complex or long-term news stories. Experimental results produced through quantitative and qualitative evaluations have shown, by positive evidence, that our proposed approach was able to support citizen engagement in collaborative curation of news content. By using the ADR research methodology, we concluded the second cycle of this study with a set of design recommendations for building similar platforms.
