Purpose:

The purpose of this assignment is to assess students’ understanding of key concepts, especially in relation to the practical implications for knowledge management in firms.

Description:

Knowledge management (KM) is a jargon-laden multifaceted area of learning and practice. For this assignment, students will be given a list of terms and must consider definitions and value statements that relate these terms to KM. Each student will select four terms and critically analyze their importance to the practice of KM. The explanation of why each term was selected should provide a definition, and then focus on the value of practical application in KM, including providing support from the literature and real-life examples.
