Abstract

Purpose

This study aims to present a qualitative analysis of how higher education institutions (HEIs) faculties manage knowledge to facilitate the learning and engagement of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Design/methodology/approach

This study uses a qualitative research design to collect responses from 39 HEI faculties to understand how they manage knowledge to facilitate learning in individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Data collection tools comprised a set of predetermined questions, soliciting written responses.

Findings

Coding of the collected data confirmed that there was a knowledge management process in HEIs for enabling higher education of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. A total of six themes emerged, clarifying the knowledge management process. The four components of this process were creation, storage, sharing and use. In addition to the four process-related themes, two other themes that emerged were barriers to knowledge creation and supportive culture. This covers the relevant aspects of the set-up around the knowledge management process in HEIs trying to improve the higher education of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Originality/value

There is a need to improve the education of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, which requires effective knowledge management. This paper reveals details of the steps in the knowledge management process relevant to this aim. This is a unique contribution, providing a basis for future research and the introduction of required knowledge management practices by HEIs dedicated to providing high-quality education to students with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

管理知识,促进智力和发育障碍人士的学习:知识管理中缺失的部分
目的本研究旨在对高等教育机构(HEIs)院系如何管理知识以促进智力和发育障碍人士的学习和参与进行定性分析。设计/方法/途径本研究采用定性研究设计,收集了 39 所高等教育机构院系的回复,以了解他们如何管理知识以促进智力和发育障碍人士的学习。数据收集工具包括一组预先确定的问题,征求书面答复。研究结果对收集到的数据进行编码,证实高等院校有一个知识管理过程,以促进智力和发育障碍人士的高等教育。共出现了六个主题,阐明了知识管理过程。这一过程的四个组成部分是创建、存储、共享和使用。除了四个与过程相关的主题外,还出现了另外两个主题,即知识创造的障碍和支持性文化。原创性/价值改善智力和发育障碍人士的教育需要有效的知识管理。本文揭示了知识管理过程中与这一目标相关的步骤细节。这是一项独特的贡献,为今后的研究以及致力于为智力和发育障碍学生提供高质量教育的高等院校引入所需的知识管理实践提供了基础。
