Further education in knowledge organization basic didactic considerations

Abstract

Knowledge organization in real world situations is a complex task relying on a vast body of knowledge from theories, disciplines, professions, and cultures. This diversity requires a particular instructional design for developing competence in this field. The main features of this design are: real world approach, critical incident analysis, the work on inter dependent tasks as a problem-solving method, implementation of solutions, permanent evaluation. It is proposed that documentation of critical incidents, solutions and implementation results serve as a base for establishing knowledge organization as a new interdisciplinary field.
