Experiencing Knowledge - Donald Norris, Jon Mason, Paul Lefrere, Innovate Online
To succeed in the Knowledge Age, people who have passed through today's formal education system—meaning most adults in Western economies—will need an order-of-magnitude leap in their capacity to acquire, assimilate, and share knowledge. Between now and the year 2010 (a target date for landmark changes in education worldwide, such as the establishment of a European Learning Space covering all college-level education in Europe), best practice in knowledge sharing will be substantially reinvented in all settings—education, business, government, associations, and other not-for-profits. We recently completed a fifteen-month collaboration, supported by an international advisory group, that explored current indications of this coming revolution from all over the world. Our findings are captured in Transforming e-Knowledge: A Revolution in the Sharing of Knowledge (Norris, Mason, and Lefrere 2003). One of our most compelling conclusions is that not only will we be expected to handle more knowledge faster and to greater effect, but the very nature of the knowledge experience will change. What does it mean to "experience knowledge?"
