“…This is achieved by organizing formal, systematic and direct processes to create, store, retain, evaluate, enhance and increase organizational knowledge for future benefit of the organization (Leung, Lau, & Tsang, 2013;Martensson, 2000;Turban & Aronson, 2001). KM also aims to enhance the quality, content, value and transferability of individual and group knowledge within an organization (Mentzas, Apostolou, Young, & Abecker, 2001). Therefore, KM is capable of sustaining long term competitive advantage.…”

. To improve the learning experience of the first trimester undergraduate students in an Australian university's offshore campus: A knowledge management methodology. Journal of Information Technology Education: Research, 13, AbstractDue to the successful implementation of knowledge management (KM) in many commercial organizations, KM has been recently extended to higher education institutions (HEIs) to manage scholar knowledge, and institution policies and procedures. To address the lack of insight in regards to the engagement of tertiary students to manage knowledge at a course level, a KM methodology is proposed to allow students to interact with lecturers in and outside large lecture halls to create, disseminate, use and evaluate knowledge.The proposed methodology provides electronic, telecommunication and manual channels to allow students to ask questions in lectures when they fail to understand any incoming knowledge delivered by academics regardless of time and space constraints. Knowledge developed based on students' questions can further be evaluated and extended using mechanisms to comment and recommend features. In additional, students are able to create new knowledge and to solve problems using incoming knowledge as the methodology which can enhance knowledge understanding throughout the learning process.The proposed methodology was applied to a business computing course at an undergraduate level, conducted in an offshore campus of an Australian university in the third trimester of 2012. The methodology was evaluated using quantitative analysis. The findings show that the majority of the students agreed the computerized tool incorporated in the methodology (Facebook) could enhance their learning experience by allowing students to ask for, share, discuss and extend knowledge.

“…The first steps towards the realization of these objectives concerned the development of a Community of Practice, the KennisNet, incorporating the facilitation of direct contacts between members and an intranet-based knowledge-sharing server using existing technical infrastructure, a Lotus Notes network, are depicted in Figure 2. The development of the knowledge repository was inspired on work by [16], [25] and [20]. Its functionality enables direct access to contents, publishing and browsing of knowledge items, and allows the implementation of facilities for discussion and broadcast of questions and requests.…”

“…These include knowledge objects, knowledge assets, knowledge creating activities [20] and knowledge management episodes, such as making a decision, solving a problem, conducting an experiment and performing a scenario analysis [21]. Fowler [22] approaches this diversity by recognising the existence of different ways of conceptualising and representing knowledge through, for example, anecdote, metaphor or diagram.…”

In the challenges faced by organisations in the area of knowledge management, there is clearly a role for information and communications technologies in supporting the exploitation of business knowledge. This paper proposes a model of knowledge processes, based on the concept of "activity", i.e. what people do, as determined by the cultural-historical activity theory. The evolutionary development of an implementation of the model in currently available technology is described, together with the results of an evaluation of its suitability and effectiveness. This work is substantiating both the practicability of the implementation and the usefulness of the structure for the extraction of rich information that can support group memory and knowledge processes.
