Öffnung der Hochschulen durch wechselseitigen Wissenstransfer im Kontext wissenschaftlicher Weiterbildung

Abstract

Participation in continuing higher education has various perspectives particularly with regard to lifelong learning. By arrangements in the field of continuing higher education, universities need to react to changing learning and educational biographies as well as to enable prospects in the context of lifelong learning. An important aspect belonging to this is the transfer of knowledge. Based on the definition of influencing factors on transfer of knowledge by von Krogh and Köhne, the system of reciprocity will be subject of discussion. Based on data out of a context-specific requirement analysis among potential students ( N = 154) and companies ( N = 31), it will be shown that the continuing higher education is not only challenged with the influencing factors on the knowledge transfer but also with the three stakeholders (university, students, companies). The different views of universities, students and companies have a significant impact on the reciprocity of the transfer of knowledge. As a conclusion a multidimensional approach is claimed which will be described in a pattern of multidimensionality. (English) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
