Week 10 - Extended Realities technology as part of Produsage (Part 1)

Hi everyone!

Just wanted to share an article I found. As I related last week, my produsage assignment will center on the creation of a kind of role-playing game that will facilitate the discussion of moral/ethical dilemmas for military officers to get a clear sense of the danger of the new operating context (V.U.C.A)*.

I found an article that demonstrated the Swedish Army's use of virtual reality technology in the military context to thrust officers into the role of a UN peacekeeper. Take a read!

Secondly, a method of arbitration and moderation of disputes and information posted in the community. I would imagine that this is necessary to ensure that (1) fake news is not posted in the community that could harm it and, (2) to help ascertain veracity in disputes between investors/ members of the community. The main issue of...

Building a Shared Knowledge Base for your Organization!

On that train of thought - talking about knowledge sharing here - I've been trying to compile a list of articles to do with developing a community knowledge base. Now in my previous post, I was talking about knowledge sharing in an organization that does not have the infrastructure for a thriving internet community. This post is really to share two articles I found regarding the creation of a shared knowledge base. The first, I found on a blog called quandora that talks about the 5 benefits of knowledge sharing within an organization. Here is the website: https://www.quandora.com/5-benefits-knowledge-sharing-organization/ As a summary, the five benefits are: Re-use the organization's best problem-solving experiences. Improve decision-making. Increase growth and innovation. Improve customer service. Reduce the loss of tacit knowledge. Now the second article is more detailed, pertaining to a specific case - building self-service for customer support. Here is the website:...
