Paper Abstract:
|
A key component for the quality of knowledge management at a higher education institution is understanding its
mechanisms of the organization and dissemination of information. This research evaluates public websites of academic
space in the domain interest of faculty staff, concerning the possibilities of finding and availability of information, how the
data was structured, and diffusion of information. A qualitative and quantitative evaluation of criteria codification,
abstraction, and diffusion was made. The template for the analysis of the website was made according to the analysis of
previous research, with the necessary contextual adaptation. The obtained results enable an analysis of the information
space, on a public website, revealing the quantity and quality of information relevant to the areas of interest in the academic
sphere. Based on obtained data we identify factors for an effective flow of codified information on the higher education
website. This paper is part of a broader research, which determines the mechanisms of information diffusion through an
academic institution according to the Information Space model. |
