Description
Summary:Knowledge management (KM) is scattered among several knowledge types and various management methods. One problem with this methodological fragmentation is incommensurability, as the various classifications do not share a common language. This paper suggests a unified typology, and toward this end adopts a classification that for the last five decades has become prominent in the education field, especially with the rise of the "significant learning" trend. In education, the classification divides the learning outcomes into three: knowledge, skills and dispositions. The paper derives a coherent framework from this classification that integrates the verification, management and evaluation of knowledge. The knowledge-skills-dispositions framework is comprehensive, internally cohesive, and mostly advantageous - each type is tightly coupled with an adequate management method. Further, it has the advantage of imported experience from the domain of education, a gain that KM professionals can appreciate.
