Abstract

A professor's head holds a wealth of knowledge and experience both tacit and explicit; relating both to their chosen field of study and to their classroom teaching. Our Knowledge Community provides a repository and collaborative environment in which to capture, store and share this knowledge with others. It is a complete on-line, searchable archive featuring teaching resources, teaching best practices, faculty publications and working papers, and multimedia showcases of faculty research. The knowledge community also provides a place for collaborating partner schools to share research, exchange best practices and to leverage the intellectual assets of the collaborating schools. This project is under development and scheduled for completion in September 2002. The current community contains 5 partner schools with plans to expand the number of schools over the next 4 years.
