A Descriptive Analysis on Usage of Online Knowledge Sharing Technology in Malaysian Research Universities

This study investigates the level of usage of online knowledge sharing technology among academics in Malaysian research universities. The prerequisite to successful knowledge sharing is the acceptance and utilization of the knowledge sharing technology (i.e.KMS), however, past studies testing the significant relationship between various technologies and knowledge sharing showed that there is no significant relationship between the two variables. Hence, the current study is interested in examining the level of usage of online knowledge sharing technology for the purpose of knowledge sharing among academic staff. A questionnaire survey was utilized in this study and a descriptive analysis was done. Specifically, the academics showed a high usage of online knowledge sharing technology. Therefore, an increasing emphasis on knowledge creation and sharing and technology application leads to a continuous evaluation on the role of technology in HRD

Conceptualizing organizational learning system model and innovativeness

The link between organizational learning, organizational innovativeness and performance is very profound in the literature. Organizational Learning Systems Model (OLSM) focuses on organizational learning as a social organization and how it learns to exist in the surroundings. Emphasis on organization learning based like Parsons general theory of social action has linked performance and learning element in order to evaluate organizational performance. The Organizational Learning Systems Model (OLSM) grounded from Parsonian social system perspective which is active in nature help identifies the importance of working and learning process of adjustment. Organizational learning here is drawn from behavioural dimensions; acquiring knowledge, distributing and interpreting data, and organizational memory. Evidence has indicated that organizational performance increases when learning happens in an organization. Organizational innovativeness has shown the relationship with learning. This subject tries to evaluate the relationship between organizational learning systems model, organizational innovativeness that leads to positive output for the system

Conceptualising organisational learning system model and innovativeness

The connection between organisational learning, organizational innovativeness and performance is very profound in the literature. Performance especially is examined from the very comprehensive perspective, including dimension like financial performance, sales, profitability, service quality etc. Given that, this research focuses on collective learning aspect and the connection between organizational innovativeness and performance. Organizational Learning Systems Model (OLSM) focuses on organizational learning as a social system and how it learns to survive in the environment. Emphasis on organization learning based like Parsons (1968) general theory of social action has linked performance and learning element (Gorelick, 2005) in order to measure organizational performance. The Organizational Learning Systems Model (OLSM) grounded from the Parsonian social system perspective which is active in nature help identifies the importance of functioning and learning process of modification. Organizational learning here is drawn from behavioural dimensions; knowledge acquisition, information distribution, data interpretation, and organizational memory based on Huber’s (1991) work (Jiménez, 2008). Evidence has shown that organizational performance increases when learning occurs in an organization. Organisational innovativeness has shown the relationship with learning. This study seeks to assess the relationship between organizational learning systems model, organisational innovativeness that leads to positive output for organization. This work sought to bestow to the empirical research needs in the future

Conceptualizing Organizational Learning System Model and Innovativeness

Abstract Overview There have been many studies relating Schwandtz's learning systems model in studies relating knowledge management, innovation, learning capacities and also information technology. Looking into the analogy that every learning accompanied by actions or performance, this research emphasis on how may these actions significantly affectservice quality performance. The Organizational Learning System Model (OLSM)created by Schwandt's aim to give a continuous solution towards learning and performance from a theoretical perspective. The organizational learning here acts as an action based which involves organization as social organization where employees work collectively, share experience and cognition. When learning action takes place, action in the form of performance happens simultaneously. Thus, both learning and performance make ends meet in the form of collective action in organizations. The Schwandt Learning Systems Model meant to be applied specifically perspective on the important dimension as organizational learning, innovation and performance. Organizational learning is seen as a system that able to transform information into valuable knowledge through its actions, actors, symbols and process for a long term sustainability of an organization (Johnson & Bailey, 2010: 7
