知識管理是近年教育界熱點話題之一,特別是當一所學校或機構進入新舊交替的時期,需要將校內的集體智慧、顯性及隱性知識、專業技能整合,並於一個互相信任的平台上進行分享,才能將知識承傳下去。筆者觀察的特殊學校,於 2009 年開始從教職發展的方向入手,利用行動研究進行知識分享,推行「一人一行動研究」,即是校方要求教師及專責人員,每年就著自己工作的困難, 進行行動研究。經過數年的發展,校內形成了彼此分享、彼此信任的文化,並且漸漸建立了學習社群的雛型。因此,本文嘗試探討和觀察,這所特殊學校如何在一定的「知識管理」基礎上,以「協同行動研究,建立學習社群」的計劃。Copyright by Special Education Society of Hong Kong Limited.
