Managing the knowledge Why do we need to?

Tidal Wave of information – we just cant know it all

Ever changing – what is knowledge today is out dated tomorrow

Information guided by the group is stronger than information by the professional New type of publishing – publishing by conversation, not dictation

What is correct content and what is false

We don’t teach the information, but the methods in which to seek this information


Managing the knowledge Use the tools

RSS Feeds – Blogline, Google Reader, Explorer Feed Reader

Networks – Each other, Forums, Blogs, online conferences, Wiki Spaces

Social Bookmarking – Del.icio.us, Favourites

And you will really need to know how to file!!
