Abstract
Knowledge management (KM) is considered as a significant source of success in many organisations, specifically higher education institutions. Instructors generate a considerable amount of valuable teaching-related knowledge that should be identified and shared among communities of instructors to enhance informal learning and deliver better quality teaching. However, many universities are facing difficulties in documenting, sharing and applying the teaching experiences gained by instructors. In the field of KM, a vast amount of research exists focusing on the activities of sharing knowledge, disregarding the importance of knowledge application and reuse. This research aims to close this gap by designing a system enabling instructors to share and apply teaching experiences. Therefore, we have followed a design research approach to explore meta-requirements by conducting an investigative study with instructors who work in Saudi universities. Through our exploratory study, we identified three challenges that might prevent instructors from sharing and reusing knowledge using the current communication channels: lack of access to experts and expertise, lack of structured knowledge, and lack of motivation. To overcome these challenges, a new artefact will be designed based on the resulting meta-requirements to ensure effective sharing and reuse of teaching experiences.
