There are still a few educational platforms that apply a Knowledge Management System (KMS) concept in
conducting its operational work. In addition, several obstacles associated with e-learning implementation
trigger the in-effectiveness of collaborative learning. However, the concept of Knowledge Management (KM)
from a Sharia perspective has significant implications for education systems. This research, therefore,
explored the relevance of the Learning Management System (LMS), KM theory, and Sharia education
perspective on the development of the Integrated Knowledge Management System (IKMS) Framework. The
IKMS components and structures are literature reviewed and then qualitatively justified through the focus
group discussion which involved some students, lectures, and experts from two Sharia-based Universities in
Indonesia. To verify and test the framework, an IKMS-Edu system was developed by focusing on the
adoption of a controlling agent system in the online discussion. Herein, filtering and summarization
technology was embedded into IKMS-Edu towards a smart controlling agent. This agent adopted the
operational work of IKMS-Edu framework leveraging in four constructs activities viz., knowledge creation
and knowledge acquisition (construct 1), knowledge organization and knowledge storage (construct 2),
knowledge dissemination and knowledge retrieval (construct 3), and knowledge evaluation and feedback
(construct 4). To date, the statistical evaluation of the IKMS-Edu system’s acceptance is conducted by
disseminating the questionnaires. The mean scores revealed 40.45% of the respondents strongly agreed, and
42.18% agreed on the proposed framework and prototype system thus the framework aided in performing the
IKMS during the collaborative learning activities. As such, this evidence provides the strong support that
IKMS-Edu significantly enhanced the effectiveness of collaborative learning by considering the Sharia values
of trust, knowledge, virtue, psychosocial, and civilization development into knowledge management
activities
