Abstract

The aim of this chapter is to explore what instructors and student should have of knowledge sharing (KS) attitude and to investigate the benefits and barriers of KS in one of the Gulf Cooperation Council University. The purpose is to determine the outcome of KS and how the knowledge could develop the act of instructors and students and the college as an organization and to investigate the degree of KS in academic level at the public university. The students and instructors were asked about the extent to which they know of the significance of sharing their knowledge with others. The results show that a significant number of them are aware moderately. The chapter concludes that the majority tend to share knowledge with no boundaries. Three recommendations are drawn: raise people's awareness about the value of KS by seminars or workshops, raise the coordination between the students, and enhance this in their lives, and expand the level of communications.
