What would you teach about KM?
I have a chance to teach a masters level course in knowledge management with a focus on practice, rather than theory. The course has been taught previously, so I have some syllabi to use as templates. And I have seen other syllabi. The bonus for this course is that the students have already had an introduction to KM theory in a previous course.
If you had ten weeks to work with masters students on KM practice, what would you do? I'll be happy to summarize and even post my syllabus, assuming I get the gig.


1/ Use Drupal as a knowledge engine and assign each student a module. The objective is for them to have to get as many uses out of the module possible. Next step is to collaborate in order to leverage their module with those of other students.
2/ Get them to be very very accurate and fast at transcribing interviews and at note taking.
3/ Get them to design a rapid assessment exercise for company wide deployment with immediate interim results.
