Abstract

Existing research shows that schools will greatly benefit from implementing knowledge management systems (KMSes). However, designing and implementing such information systems presents an overwhelming task for schools which do not have a knowledge-sharing culture. This paper explains how we designed a KMS in a rural low-knowledge school in Costa Rica and how the participatory methods applied during the design process initiated the creation of a learning culture that would encourage the use of the KMS. This paper makes a methodological contribution to the KMSes field by providing three detailed methods that can be used by KMSes developers to approach handling the social and technical dimensions of a KMS.

支持教育环境中知识管理系统设计的参与式方法

现有研究表明，学校将从实施知识管理系统中受益匪浅。然而，对于没有知识共享文化的学校来说，设计和实施此类信息系统是一项艰巨的任务。本文解释了我们是如何在哥斯达黎加一所低知识农村学校设计KMS的，以及在设计过程中采用的参与式方法是如何开创一种鼓励使用KMS的学习文化的。本文通过提供三种详细的方法为KMSes领域做出了方法学贡献，KMSes开发人员可以使用这些方法来处理KMS的社会和技术维度。
