Scientists in Action: A Brief Analysis of the Organizational Knowledge Creation Process

Daiane Souza Alves, Cleber Corrêa, Carlos Augusto Zilli, Neri Santos

Organizational knowledge management encompasses the processes of identifying, capturing, storing, disseminating, and applying knowledge within an organization. These processes are equally identifiable in pedagogical activities aimed at fostering entrepreneurial capabilities among high school students. This study, therefore, seeks to succinctly analyze the four pillars of organizational knowledge creation—socialization, externalization, combination, and internalization—as delineated by Nonaka & Takeuchi (1995), within the framework of the multidisciplinary project “Scientists in Action.” Utilizing bibliographic research methodologies and a case study of students from the New High School curriculum at a private school in Tubarão-SC, Brazil, the findings not only underscore the viability of integrating organizational knowledge creation processes into educational practices but also emphasize their significance and transformative potential in reshaping students’ learning approaches and knowledge construction.
