COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE
Communities of practice are “groups of people who share a concern, a set of problems, or a passion about a topic, and who deepen their knowledge and expertise in this area by interacting on an ongoing basis.” Wenger, E. (1998). Communities of practice: Learning, meaning, and identity. Cambridge, UK: Cambridge University Press. Cited in:

Getting the scoop on tomorrow’s cars, trucks, sport/utility, crossovers, and whatever else is number one among the reasons people read auto-enthusiast magazines. Besides a raft of studio photos, illustrations, and fuzzy spy shots, we delve into the driver’s environment in an attempt the learn how the computerization of the vehicle may effect the way you drive – and with what sort of technology -- in the years to come. They want to dump the steering wheel. Within a decade, the part of the car we take most for granted – along with its tires – could be history. http://www.motortrend.com Lassa, Todd, and Stone, Matt (March 2004). 2005 & Beyond.

BUSINESS ANALYTICS, BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE, & KNOWLEDGE MGT. Business Analytics (BA) and Business Intelligence (BI) are categories of KM system applications in economy sectors. BA can consist of critique of “silos” of information for units in an enterprise in economy sectors such as agriculture, construction, manufacturing and diverse services including education and healthcare. BI can consist of critique of information on strategy by an enterprise: B2B and B2C, e-Market Analysis, e-Demand Chains, CRM, Outsourcing, etc.
COMPUTERWORLD released “The Future Of BI” with 21 bold predictions about BI from industry visionaries. This “Special Report” highlights megatrends: (a) companies are placing analytic tools in the hands of employees, not just a few analysts, and partners; and (b) companies are deploying text mining software.

BI: DIGITAL DASHBOARDS Managers at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Massachusetts Inc. Used to show up at their monthly meetings armed with several pounds of paper documents – department performance reports, printouts of e-mails and PowerPoint slides, and lots and lots of spreadsheets. The managers eventually agreed to lighten their loads by regularly tracking a total of 45 business performance measures, which were printed out in 8-point type to fit on a single sheet of paper. After watching the managers bounce between the two extremes, a group from IT stepped in and showed several corporate vice presidents and the chief operating officer a demo of a digital dashboard, which pulled data from multiple sources to graphically present select performance metrics on a single screen. The executives took to it almost immediately. They ultimately decided to track 10 key performance measures which all of the health insurer’s employees can access via a Web-based dashboard that aggregates data from a central data warehouse, customer surveys and other, disparate systems.

What are the fundamental characteristics of electronically networked cultures?
What implications arise from these characteristics for a developmentally appropriate framework including knowledge, skills, and dispositions (at different stages across the life span) are needed to successfully engage in electronically networked cultures?
What assessment and evaluation principles can guide measurement of learning processes and outcomes that occur within electronically networked cultures? ____________ KM Menu: http://www.members.cox.net/greenka6/wgnewweb/wgmenu.html Beneath July 2003: Career Development (2), Career Exploration, and Vision Quest Thinking ERIC Document Resumes: ED 463 432, ED 465 023, ED 465 024, and ED 463 025. ________________________________________
