Connecting Adult Learning and Knowledge Management (Knowledge Management and Organizational Learning, 8)

Abstract

Monica Fedeli and Laura L. Bierema’s (Eds.) “Connecting Adult Learning and Knowledge Management” is part of a series by the International Association for Knowledge Management (www.IAKM.net) and Springer that presents a multidisciplinary view of adult learning and knowledge management (KM) theory and practice. The next chapter with the tongue twister of a title, “Linking Faculty to Organization Development and Change: Teaching4Learning@Unipd,” by Monica Fedeli conveys the importance of a durable institutional commitment to devote money and resources in faculty development. In “Fostering Knowledge Sharing Via Technology: A Case Study of Collaborative Learning Using Padlet,” the chapter by Daniela Frison and Concetta Tino, the authors described a collaborative learning experience in higher education facilitated by the use of technology to support improved online interaction and collaboration.
