This Fall 2008 semester at the University of Texas, I’m teaching a course on: Knowledge Management Systems
This course surveys Knowledge Management systems that enable the access and coordination of knowledge assets. Technologies reviewed will include intranets, groupware, weblogs, instant messaging, content management systems and email in both individual and organizational contexts. Students will use these KM technologies, review case studies, research methods of knowledge organization and analyze and design KM processes and systems.
The course is chock full of fun topics including:
- Knowledge Management
- Collaborative Work
- Personal Information Management
- Personal Knowledge Management (if there is such a thing)
- Intranets, Portals and Organizational Knowledge
- Networked, Dynamic Collaboration
- Collaborative Filtering & Recommender Systems
- WiFi, UbiComp & Smart Mobs
Of course, we have a class blog too: Knowledge Management Systems @UTexas
