This special issue focuses on recent directions for the alignment of collaborative knowledge management and e-learning, and their rising impact on research and pedagogical practice. Finding effective ways to collaborate, and to create and share knowledge among people who are connected via disperse networks is one of the most challenging tasks. Many of our traditional learning models and educational systems are not yet ready for new forms of collaboration and knowledge management. To achieve effective education and training, we need to pay attention not only to the technology itself, but also to technology infrastructures, pedagogies, social, and management aspects.
Topics of interests will cover but not be limited to:
- KM in Interdisciplinary Research and Scholarly Collaboration
- Strengthening Collaboration through KM
- Narratives, Stories and Anecdotes for Learning and Knowledge Transfer
- New Models of Virtual Real-Time Collaboration, 3-D Collaborative Learning Environments
