- 7. WHAT IS KNOWLEDGE Knowledge refers to interconnected information on what something is, why something happens, and how to do something . What: definitions of concepts and relationships, taxonomies Why: understanding cause-effect relationships How-to, know-how: analysis/synthesis; methods, procedures for generating new knowledge Knowledge is never complete, or 100% correct, can be incoherent and controversial… is messy. Knowledge acquisition is incremental (what in layers, why with imperfect accuracy, starting from know-how and learning what/ why in the process)
- 8. KNOWLEDGE TYPES • Source view: Theoretical (science, theories) vs. Experiential knowledge (personal, learned by doing) • Communication view: Explicit • can be communicated to others • definitions, taxonomies, theories, procedures, cases Tacit • difficult to communicate • experiential, analytical & synthesizing skills Sharing and capturing tacit knowledge – one of main goals before knowledge management and knowledge support systems.
