KP-Lab - TOOL introduction Knowledge-Practices Laboratory “KP-Lab” Working with innovative knowledge practices Anne Moen
KP-Lab - TOOL introduction KP-Lab Theoretical perspective –Individual learning and social transformation, knowledge-creation and methods re. ICT, innovation Technological components –Facilitate collaboration by creation of shared knowledge artifacts Longitudinal design experiment (empirical research) –Professional networks Teori Teknologi Empiri
KP-Lab - TOOL introduction Important activities Analysis –Approaches to learning and knowledge-creation Literature review –Current practices – artifacts, practices Design –Applications and knowledge artifacts
KP-Lab - TOOL introduction Contributions to innovation Theoretical –Beyond knowledge acquisition (cognitive) and Participation (“situated activity”) –Knowledge creation (“ innovation & learning ”) Technological innovation modular, flexible and extensible application systems Pedagogical innovation work with complex problem solving in professional communities and boundary crossing education-professional life Social innovation transform social practices around shared knowledge artifacts
KP-Lab - TOOL introduction Among the challenges.. (1) Theoretical frameworks design artifacts –Integrating conceptual and material artifacts –Assess available technologies, what may be learned and used from –Knowledge Management systems (KM) –Collaborative technologies (CSCW) –Educational technology (f.eks. CSCL) –In addition Modifications and further development
KP-Lab - TOOL introduction Integration of heterogeneous infrastructures –Technology –Social –Epistemological What are the intermediary building blocks? –Boundary objects (social units) –Application systems (technological units) –Pragmatic uses of aspects of theory (epistemology) –etc Among the challenges.. (2)
