3. PROPOSITIONAL KNOWLEDGE:

.

EXAMPLE: • reading a manual of computer book.• memorizing the procedure.•BUT.. Not applying in actual.

“Something to get to know”.

This is LEARNING stage.

4. NON-PROPOSITIONAL KNOWLEDGE:EXAMPLE: • what you have learned in propositional knowledge, it’s time to apply here.• applying the knowledge, doing practical on computer.

“that can be used or can be applied”.

This is ACTION stage.

5. EXPLICIT KNOWLEDGE“The knowledge that can be

communicated by using formalised language”.

Explicit knowledge can be found in textbooks & encyclopaedias

“something that can be readily articulated, codified, assessed & verbalized”

knowledge that is difficult to transfer to another person & also

difficult to visualize.It is considered as intangible knowledge.

6. TACIT KNOWLEDGE“knowledge based on intuition, experiences, observations & internalised information.”
