Social Computing for Knowledge Creation – the Role of Tacit Knowledge
نویسندگان
چکیده
To advance understanding on knowledge creation through social computing, we posed two research questions: What are the processes underlying knowledge creation online? What is the role of tacit knowledge in online communication? We note that even if the online environment is beset with apparent limitations due to physical distance, tacit knowledge is by no means absent. It enables individuals to communicate with others and to build new knowledge through interpreting and reflecting the available information. On the collective level, tacit knowledge is demonstrated as the shared language and understanding of the members, and the norms of interaction.
