Wiki as a corporate learning tool: case study for software development company

Psicología educativa, más allá del contexto escolar

“…En espacios informales mediados por el uso de nuevas tecnologías, algunas habilidades metacognitivas, como el auto control sobre aquello que los aprendices que desean aprender, se ven altamente favorecidas (Dabbagh & Kitsantas, 2011;Falk & Dierking, 2000;Jones, Scanlon, & Clough, 2013). Algunos postulados de la cognición distribuida, pueden encontrarse en la base de estudios en los que se indaga por el aprendizaje en contextos informales empleando la herramienta Wiki para el intercambio de conocimiento en compañías para el desarrollo de software (Milovanović, Minović, Štavljanin, Savković, & Starćević, 2012).…”

Scaffolded contributions, active meetings and scaled engagement: How technology shapes informal learning practices in healthcare SME networks

“…Previous research in this area has tended to focus on the use of technology to support informal learning in large organisations (García-Álvarez, 2015;Milovanović, Minović, Štavljanin, Savković, & Starčević, 2012), educational settings (Jones & Dexter, 2014), informal learning acquired outside the organizational context (García-Peñalvo & Conde, 2014) and/or in contexts that are linked to formal learning (Pimmer, Mateescu, & Gröhbiel, 2016). In contrast, there has been little research undertaken into how technology can support informal learning within the most common work environment across Europe -small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).…”

In response, wikis are deployed for multipurpose use such as customer resource management (Ortega and Barahona 2007), software development (Trkman and Trkman 2009;Milovanović et al 2012), group projects (Morgan et al 2013), new product development (Reid et al 2016), and in the educational setting (Fominykh et al 2016;Heidrich et al 2015;Matschke, Moskaliuk, and Kimmerle 2013) but there is a need to evaluate their role in such collaborative tasks. However, the question do corporate wikis benefit the endusers' performance is still underexplored.…”
