Creating a knowledge-based academic community
by Monika Mital
International Journal of Management in Education (IJMIE), Vol. 1, No. 3, 2007

Abstract: The adoption of information technology is still at a very nascent stage in management education institutions in India. Educational institutions are knowledge-creating and knowledge-disseminating entities, as they are information-processing systems that continuously deal with and disseminate interpretation and learning derived from a dynamically uncertain business environment. The study treats an educational institute as an organisation with a mission and a goal, and with its activities and culture directed towards the effective achievement of these goals. Because knowledge management is an increasingly essential component of innovation and value creation, the study focuses on the various knowledge activities of faculty members to understand the type and extent of impact of information systems on those activities and how those activities contribute to value creation and building a knowledge culture in an educational institute.
