The Use of Digital Concept Maps as Cognitive Tools for Managing Knowledge and Knowledge Resources
نویسنده
چکیده
Advanced computer-based concept-mapping tools are suggested to have the potential to foster spatial learning strategies and processes of individual knowledge management like the acquisition, organization, representation, (self-) evaluation, communication, localization and utilization of knowledge. In addition, they have the potential to represent not only conceptual knowledge, but also content knowledge about a domain, as well as knowledge resources. The aim of this paper is to analyze the potential of digital concept maps for supporting processes of individual knowledge management. Perspectives for application and research are outlined.
