Opis

Knowledge Management (KM) is the technique of using the information and knowledge that is supplied to, generated by and inherent in any organization or institution, to improve its performance. Education, whose business after all is knowledge, often fails to appreciate the potential of KM. This volume addresses the topic of knowledge management in education, and how it can be harnessed in practice to help improve learning and education. It should be accessible to education readers.
