This is it. I've finally reached my last year of university. It's been a rollercoaster, and I'm down to my last few courses. It's a wonderful feeling.
One of those courses is Knowledge Management, or KM. In requesting that we create blogs, the professor has made it clear that this course is meant to be practical and not just academic, which I hope will make for a pleasant experience.
I'm not new to blogger.com - I created my first blog when I was sixteen and wrote in it periodically until a few years ago. Blogging is a wonderful concept, I'd like to get back into it.
The field of KM isn't new to me either - in the army, my team had to put extra effort into efficient knowledge management for two main reasons: 1. Many tasks had to be completed within a few hours, even at night, so any information needed in order to complete a task had to be readily accesible; 2. One-third of the team members were replaced every six months - one group of soldiers would complete their service and a new group would take their place - meaning that training had to be quick and easy, and also that no one really had the chance to become truly professional. Knowledge was stored in a shared file and in old emails.
