一种支持协作与知识创造的“场”

Ba for collaboration and knowledge creation

21世纪知识的共享与创造已成为促进企业发展的第一生产力.在群体活动过程中,良好的协作技术是保证知识创造有效进行的先决条件.基于我国著名系统科学家钱学森提出的“从定性到定量综合集成”思想,即“大胆假设,小心求证”,研究开发了支持群思考的计算机工具———群研讨环境(group argumentation environment,GAE),它支持群体研讨,群体知识创造,发散和收敛思考相结合等群体活动,期望成为协作和知识创造两者有机结合的“场”.

In the 21st century, knowledge sharing and creation has become the primary productivity to promote organization development. During the period of group activities, excellent collaboration technique is necessary to ensure knowledge creation. In this paper, based on system methodology of Meta-synthesis, whose essential idea can be simplified as ＂confident hypothesizing, rigorous validating＂ proposed by Chinese system scientist Qian Xuesen （Tsien HsueShen）. We develop a computer-based tool： group argumentation environment （GAE）, which supports group activities, such as group argumentation, group knowledge creation, divergent and convergent thinking process. It can be viewed as a ‘ba＇ for collaboration and knowledge creation.
