− | == Introduction == | + | == Context == |
| + | This theme provides learners with an understanding of key definitions of knowledge systems. |
| | | |
− | ''Knowledge Management'' (KM) is a management discipline that aims to sustainably improve the effectiveness of organisations and social systems through deliberate and planned systems interventions.
| + | == Competencies == |
| + | Expected competencies after study of this theme are: |
| + | * Understanding of definitions of information, knowledge, and action in the domain of Knowledge Management |
| + | * Able to articulate strategies for reconciling layperson and KM definitions |
| + | * Understanding of the Williams AKI model |
| + | * Exploration of strengths and weaknesses of AKI model and alternative knowledge models |
| | | |
− | It is a multidisciplinary management science, drawing from diverse fields including information theory, data sciences, librarianship, communications, marketing, psychology, biology, sociology, and management research.
| + | == Key Topics == |
− | | + | * What is a knowledge system? |
− | Many KM curriculums for both tertiary qualifications and private certifications only cover a small subset of the areas relevant to effective practice of knowledge management in organisations.
| + | * Defining information, knowledge and action |
− | | + | * Williams AKI model |
− | The '''RealKM Open KM Syllabus''' is an initiative which attempts to systematically describe the themes and topics required for a fully-rounded education in knowledge management theory and practice.
| |
− | | |
− | The goal is to provide a reference standard which can be used to:
| |
− | * compare the content of educational KM programs
| |
− | * create a common language for KM specialisations
| |
− | * assist KM practitioners to identify opportunities for personal improvement
