AbstractThe article presents a few aspects of the knowledge sharing process, both through conventional means and through those provided by information and communication technology. The first part includes a brief outline regarding knowledge sharing through communities of practice, emphasizing only those that conduct their activity in the online environment, followed by a short description of sharing platforms. Another element approached is an IT app of a demonstrative model of a knowledge bank for the domain of Defense, Public Order and National Security, resulting from my doctoral research. This is accompanied by a pilot study proving the manner in which the usefulness of this bank is perceived with the help of an on-line questionnaire. The research presented is destined to raising awareness in the field of knowledge banks and has the role to formulate conclusions which are going to allow increasing the efficiency in the development of similar platforms.

Ecotourism is the combination of ecosystem and tourism. Ecosystem tourism includes travel to destinations where flora, fauna, and cultural heritage are the primary attractions. Present study wants to establish the link between knowledge sharing, information and communication technology (ICT) and ecotourism performance with mediation of tourist attraction and digital management system among employees of ecotourism provider companies in Ranong province of Thailand. Data is collected through questionnaire survey method and via dropdown technique. Partial Least Square (PLS) is used in this study for data analysis. Results indicate that knowledge sharing related to ecotourism and ICT has positive significant impact on ecotourism performance and on tourist attraction and digital management system respectively. Tourist attraction has positive significant impact on ecotourism performance but not mediate the relation. Digital management system mediates the relation and also has the positive significant impact on ecotourism performance. Practitioners should focus on knowledge sharing variable, ICT and digital management system for increasing the ecotourism performance among ecotourism provider companies in Ranong province of Thailand.

Implementation of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in distance learning requires some efforts to succeed. Currently in using internet for learningassisted service, UT has utilized tutorial online for 171 courses. In the implementation of tutorial online UT found many constraints such as the number of students who use tutorial online facility is relatively small, low capability of using ICT, high cost, low accessibility, and technical difficulty. E-moderating is one of the learning approach to be used in evaluating tutorial online for two sample courses in Mathematics MATK4531- Structure of Algebra and MATA4350-Mathematics of Finance. Research on the implementation of the on-line tutorials indicates that the development stages of tutorial online could facilitate learning experiences but there are some difficulty in accessing and socializing the facilities for new students. The efforts to acquire learning effectiveness in Tutorial Online at UT should be creatively develop.

<p>This thesis explores the dynamics of knowledge sharing, through the context of interorganisational collaboration in the public sector. The growth of collaboration across public sector organisations places increasing importance on knowledge sharing, yet it is an area that has historically proved difficult for the sector. Knowledge sharing research increasingly emphasises the importance of social capital in facilitating and influencing knowledge sharing behaviours, yet the public sector’s approach to knowledge sharing has predominantly focussed on the use of information and communication technology (ICT) tools. The aim of this research is to better understand the dynamics of knowledge sharing, and the roles that social capital and ICT play in knowledge sharing. This is a contemporary and important research topic. Public sector commitment to increasing collaboration requires a strong focus on inter-organisational knowledge sharing. This multiple-case, multi-method research incorporates a research design that blends qualitative and quantitative data collection and analysis. The research extends and deepens current understanding of the dynamics of knowledge sharing and contributes to the existing body of knowledge in the areas of knowledge sharing, social capital, and ICT. It also provides valuable empirical evidence relating to public sector based sharing at the inter-organisational level. The research found that social capital is a significant concern for collaborative teams. Factors such as trust, group identity and shared purpose and goals were identified as important considerations for team members. Despite the sector’s focus on ICT tools as key knowledge sharing mechanisms, the actual availability of tools was limited. Further, individuals’ use of tools was low due to their perceptions of the available tools as difficult to use and of limited usefulness. A key outcome of the research was the development of a conceptual framework that can be used to support the work of academics and practitioners engaged in the field of collaboration and knowledge sharing. The framework identifies six important antecedents that influence the development of social capital, and the availability and use of ICT. These antecedents include collaboration design, leadership, the perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness of ICT, and individual technical ability. The final antecedent identifies individual’s commitment to the ‘intrinsic value of public sector work’ as a key collaboration factor.</p>

The developing of studying-learning culture in Indonesia nowadays is increased in pandemic era of covid-19, we must face it because this corona virus spread almost in the whole of countries in the world, including Indonesia which have 34 provinces. Having connected with coronavirus, the education that we as Teacher face to the students of course will be problem, the Indonesia Government finally decide to do online class, we call it daring class and using of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) through internet,  the students and the teachers have to stay at home , but they are able to learn their lessons via on line by using mobile phone application . Unlucky the students who are from the rich one can do it, they buy the pulse and quota easily but not for the poverty students who can’t buy it , it is the obstacle for our education minister to solve the way to help every students in Indonesia doing  the education activities. Of course this process doing learning studying so far can run well enough , though we face this pandemic, we really hope it can be over sooner.

Scholars suggested the role of industry experts in providing learning assistance and knowledge sharing to students through a process called scaffolding as it helps in improving conceptual and problem solving skills. With the advancement of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), scaffolding can be conducted online where the term online scaffolding emerges. Existing studies on online scaffolding are confined towards people from the same academic institutions (e.g students and instructors from the same classrooms or online platforms). Since past studies noted that online security measures do not prevail in safeguarding the safety of information sharing, organization dependent on other factors such as trust to initiate relationship with people outside organization with regards to knowledge sharing. Nonetheless, studies to comprehend the role of trust when providing online scaffolding towards people outside organization such as from industry experts to students do not gain much attention in academic. This paper reviews literature related to the role of trust in knowledge sharing. Understanding trust from organization’s perspective serves as key to understand issues related to trust and the extent it is applicable in online scaffolding.

e-government is a fast-developing phenomenon in many countries world-wide. Information and communication technology (ICT) has the potential to transform government generally and re-invigorate democracy in particular. This article considers the role of ICT in increasing democratic engagement both in relation to traditional aggregative forms of democracy and as regards more radical, participatory democracy. Within traditional democracy the potential of ICT moves beyond simply e-voting and has particular application in the various consultations processes that are increasingly of significance within ideas of "modernised government". The particular value that ICT can bring is of importance for more participatory versions of democracy too.; A model of consultation, drawn from mediation, is outlined and the application of ICT to such methods of decision-making is considered. Finally a range of best practice examples is given to illustrate how a technology of democracy requires putting information technology in service of democracy rather than the other way around.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the factors influencing knowledge sharing (KS) among information and communication technology (ICT) artisans in Nigeria by adopting the social exchange and social capital theories. Design/methodology/approach Survey research design was adopted. Convenience and snowball sampling techniques were used to select the respondents. In total, 285 copies of questionnaire were distributed, of which 214 copies were considered useful for data analysis, giving a 75.09 per cent response rate. Findings The results show that the gender of the artisans, perceived benefits, social identification, shared language and goals had positive significant and relationships with KS except social identification where the relationship was negative. Research limitations/implications The findings and conclusion from this paper are subjected to a number of limitations. Because the population was limited to a small population and the study adopted convenience and snowball techniques, the results cannot be generalised to all ICT artisans in Nigeria. Practical implications The paper confirms the role of social exchange and social capital theories in interpreting individual’s behaviour in KS and provides useful insights on how to implement good KS practices among the artisans. Social implications This paper could assist policymakers in promoting and implementing KS practices among professionals and quasi-professionals who contribute to the gross domestic product of the country. Originality/value This paper is one of the first pieces of empirical research on KS among information technology artisans in Nigeria that used the social exchange and social capital theories.
