Educational Social Networks (ESN) can provide spaces for interaction and exchanges between learners, but they do not guarantee motivation for them to happen. INTERACT uses the contextual history of users to enhance interactions among ESN users. In addition to the model, the developed prototype is presented. The evaluation was based on data collection generated by the activities of volunteers in the experiment and in questionnaires, with the central observations being the participation, recommendation and reaction of the participants. Results showed an increase in the volume of interactions at the moments of prototype performance. Finally, the volunteers' perceptions about the quality and assertiveness of the INTERACT actions are presented.
