Mechanics of the MOD Part1
Moftech students can join the online discussion tonight. Choose a conference group where you think you will feel comfortable sharing. Ask the moderator if you can join the conference. Introduce yourself and mention your section. After that, you can participate in the discussion.
Moftech students can use English, Filipino or broken English or broken Filipino in the discussion. As much as possible, stick to the discussion. Everyone is encouraged to share ideas, opinions, experiences and knowledge.
The moderators are tasked to encourage the interest and sharing of facts and opinions in the discussion without being rude or impolite to others. Moderators
Topic for discussion tonight: SUPPORTING KNOWLEDGE WORK
Subtopic1-- What is tacit knowledge. What is explicit knowledge. Can tacit knowledge become explicit? How?
Subtopic2-- Human capital refers to knowledge, skills, innovativeness of employees as well as company values, culture and philosophy. The enterprise may engage in knowledge creation-capture activities and knowledge absorption-reuse activities to gain from the pool of human capital (or intellectual capital) they have. Question--"How do we get people to have more knowledge in their heads?"
Subtopic3-- Is it possible for the enterprise to nurture a knowledge-sharing organization? How? or if you think it is doomed to be just a wishful item in the enterprise, what are the reasons why people would not participate in a knowledge-sharing endeavor?
Good luck! I'll be around tonight to listen. :)
