The study utilizes data from 26,857 posts collected from the South Korean self-generated online teacher CoP, 'Indischool'. This data was then analyzed using natural…

One of the common aspects of professional culture is that teachers share their knowledge and experience only occasionally. However, principals can significantly contribute to reducing this weakness by demonstrating knowledge-sharing in their leadership role. It is critical for Iranian principals to play this role because there is some weakness…

Knowledge-making in South African universities is set up and framed in particular ways, with a Euro-centric bias. We argue that many of the contributions that African first year entering students could make to this process of knowledge-making are dis-abled, leading to alienation. In this article, we argue for a different perspective and approach…

Recent research has focused on students' knowledge sharing behavior and its driving factors, which promote the knowledge transmission and exchange in different educational settings. However, little research has focused on factors that inhibit knowledge sharing. Based on social learning theory and social cognitive theory, the current study…

Effective health service delivery hinges on the interface between professionals rendering health services to the sick and the injured. This paper examined the inter-professional collaboration and knowledge management practices among the clinical workforce in Federal Tertiary Hospitals in three Geopolitical Zones of Nigeria. The study employed a…

Knowledge exchange, also called knowledge translation, mobilization, or transfer, increasingly factors in university strategic plans and funding agency mandates. The growing emphasis on research that includes community engagement and making research knowledge more accessible and useful for nonacademic constituents often brings in knowledge…

This is the executive summary for the report, "Survey of Evidence in Education for Schools (SEE-S) Descriptive Report." In the United States, increased pressure through accountability policy and through the production and dissemination of scientifically based research are intended to create conditions for improving research use.…

With the 'data deluge' leading to an institutionalized research environment for data management, U.S. academic faculty have increasingly faced pressure to deposit research data into open online data repositories, which, in turn, is engendering a new set of practices to adapt formal mandates to local circumstances. When these practices involve…
