ANSWER DIRECTIONS
Knowledge Acquisition: The act of getting knowledge.
Knowledge Generation: The creation of new knowledge by changing and evolving knowledge based on one’s experience, education, and input from others.
Knowledge Processing: The activity or process of gathering or collecting, perceiving, analyzing, synthesizing, saving or storing, manipulating, conveying, and transmitting knowledge.
Knowledge Dissemination: Distribution and sharing of knowledge.
Wisdom: Knowledge applied in a practical way or trans- lated into actions; the use of knowledge and experience to heighten common sense and insight so as to exercise sound judgment in practical matters. Sometimes thought of as the highest form of common sense, resulting from accumulated knowledge or er- udition (deep, thorough learning) or enlightenment (education that results in understanding and the dissemination of knowledge). Wisdom is the ability to apply valuable and viable knowledge, experience, understanding, and insight while being prudent and sensible. It is focused on our own minds; it is the syn- thesis of our experience, insight, understanding, and knowledge. Wisdom is the appropriate use of knowl- edge to solve human problems. It is knowing when and how to apply knowledge.
Feedback: Input in the form of opinions about or reactions to something such as shared knowledge. In an information system, feedback refers to information from the system that is used to make modifications in the input, processing actions, or outputs.
