The purpose of this study is to investigate the practice of KM and organizational performance at one leading organization in implementing modernization strategies for Malaysian public services. In this study, there are four factors of KM practices namely; culture, structure, people and technology, which were based on the literature survey. A questionnaire was used as the main instrument in gathering data, and a total of 82 respondents were involved in this survey. Descriptive statistics using mean and standard deviation were performed to analyze the data. The results of the study revealed that information technology infrastructure factor scored the highest mean and followed by cultural issues, structural issues and people (human resource) which are all factors that scores at medium high level (mean = 3.68 to 3.39). The result also showed that the level of organizational performance is at medium high level in the organization, with an overall mean score of 3.59. This study will provide some worthy thoughts of how organizations should organize to manage the competitive knowledge to ensure organizational effectiveness and performance. The results may also be used as a stepping stone for further empirical research on KM Practices in the public sector to enhance the initiatives within departments, teams or organization.","PeriodicalId":306661,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Infonomics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130466457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The large grading load associated with assessing open-ended work often leads to a greater reliance on multiple-choice questions. While multiple-choice questions provide beneficial information about student performance, they may fail to capture other elements of student performance in regards to communication, writing, and generation of ideas. One potential solution to this problem is the concept of adaptive comparative judgment (ACJ). ACJ is based on the simple premise that while peers may not have the ability to place an objective grade on a paper, they can competently compare two different papers and choose which is superior. With a large enough number of student “judgements” on a body of peer work, the collective results from the comparison process can produce rankings that are on par with how the instructor would rank these papers. This session will highlight the instructor’s use of ACJ with an MBA problem-based class. ACJ was used over a number of consecutive assignments, and it produced a high correlation with the instructor’s rankings. Students also expressed satisfaction with the system and may have benefited from seeing other (anonymous) student work. ACJ represents a promising and fairly easy-to-use approach for grading open-ended work in large classes.","PeriodicalId":306661,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Infonomics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134217525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to researches, new trends have appeared among MOOCs users like: MOOCs users belong to the young generation ages between 18 and 40 years old, not to mention that most of them are graduate and post graduate students. They have a good education background and their parents are likely have so. On the other side, MOOCs disadvantages have become more obvious: the high drop-out rates in courses, the questionable true evaluation of student understanding, and the lack of formal certificate or credit hours transfer option for students. At first, formal education institutes look to the MOOCs as a type of self-learning or a stand-alone learning experience that can’t add much to the formal type of learning that they provide to their students. Lately, that wasn’t the case. New trials and models have been emerging slowly over the time as a combination of MOOCs with formal education. MOOCs have been integrating repetitively and in a different ways in the formal education. These trials and models are trying to get both MOOCS advantages and at the same time to increase education quality. This study discusses how MOOCs have become over time part of the formal education and how likely this is going to developed in the future.","PeriodicalId":306661,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Infonomics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123521526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
