Impact of Knowledge Management Practices on Enrichment of College Teachers: A Multiple Holistic Approach

Abstract

This study establishes the various lenses through which the application of KM practices enhance carbon in the enrichment of college teachers. Employing both, numerical and categorical research methods of collecting and analyzing data, the research focuses on the roles of knowledge development, dissemination, management, and use for personal and professional development, work satisfaction, innovative approach to college instruction, and individual and collective well-being of college faculty members. In the present study participants 200 college teachers were surveyed and were interviewed. The quantitative findings indicated that there was a positive connection between K and M practices and teacher enrichment with elements of knowledge application having a greater influence on overall teacher well-being (β = 0 38, p < 0 001) compared to knowledge sharing (β = 0. Field observations highlighted the significance of training in promoting teacher engagement, emphasizing stakeholders’ collegiality, and resource availability. Finally, it is postulated that KM practices are important for comprehensive personal and professional human development of college teachers and educational administration should devote special attention to these practices for improving working and study process of their teachers.
