*ANNOUNCEMENT* (02)
There has been a change of plans. The "Organizing Science Knowledge
for Discovery" session (originally scheduled for Thu 2008.01.17) is
now re-scheduled to take place on Thursday, 20-March-2008. (03)
For this Thursday, 17-Mar-2008, we will be presenting a panel session
entitled: "Creating Informational and Virtual Space for Knowledge
Sharing." Jeanne Holme (from NASA/JPL will be chairing the session.
The expert panel expected to be joining us will include: Marcela Oliva
(Los Angeles Trade Technical College), Jayne Dutra (NASA/JPL), Jeanne
Holm (NASA/JPL) and Tom Soderstrom (NASA/JPL). (04)
*Abstract*: (05)
How does the way in which organizations organize and share their
knowledge affect the way in which people have conversations and drive
dialogue? Traditionally, architects design buildings that create
spaces for conversation--meeting rooms, offices, conference centers.
This session explores how these methods have been translated into the
information environment and how community physical spaces can be
viewed, to understand how knowledge flows within a city. Understanding
how that information space is created in an organization through
ontologies and taxonomies that drive people in certain directions for
decision making and discussion is the focus of another topic. Bringing
these two ideas together into the idea of creating virtual physical
spaces that help citizens engage with government, participate in a
rocket launch, and support the mission of NASA will be explored in
looking at NASA's experience in the Second Life virtual world ("SL")
over the last two years. (06)
*RSVP* (by e-mailing the sender off-line; if you aren't already a
[kmgov] or Ontolog member, kindly include your name, affiliation and
job title as well) if you are planning to attend and haven't already
responded. (07)
We look forward to having you at the session. Please refer to all
agenda and call-in details on the session page at:
