Microlearning and the Knowledge Maturing Process : Towards Conceptual Foundations for Work-Integrated Microlearning Support

  title={Microlearning and the Knowledge Maturing Process : Towards Conceptual Foundations for Work-Integrated Microlearning Support},
  author={Andreas P. Schmidt},

As a response to the new flexibility in work environments, work-integrated learning on demand is an appropriate form of learning which is in line with microlearning ideas. But in a world of microcontent, we need to consider that not all content is appropriate for everybody. The knowledge maturing process allows for distinguishing between different levels of maturity, and technical learning support based on the maturity level can provide automated guidance to make microlearning more efficient.

Knowledge Maturing and the Continuity of Context as a Unifying Concept for Knowledge Management and E-Learning

In this paper, a knowledge maturing process is presented to illustrate the change of nature and the discontinuities, and the consideration of context is proposed, which offers the required continuity.

Characterizing Knowledge Maturing

The knowledge maturing process is presented as a conceptual model for explaining and analyzing disruptions in the inter-individual flow of knowledge within organizations.

Using Workflow , User Modeling and Tutoring Strategies for Just-intime Document Delivery

A smart personal assistant which delivers training documents to its user in a just-in-time manner and user-modelling is incorporated into the system to ensure that redundant or previously known information is not delivered, thereby reducing the problem of information overload.
