Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to provide a discussion about the compatibility and complementarity of blended learning and knowledge management (KM) and their relationship. Blended learning combines classroom instruction with e-learning while KM is the process of creating, capturing, disseminating, applying, and managing organizational knowledge. This chapter illustrates how attention to two main perspectives exists in KM field; namely, objectivist perspective and practice-based perspective can inform the learning and teaching approach, the deep and surface learning. Yet they are two complementary processes if they are properly integrated. From here, a shift to the need to rethink and restructure the learning and teaching experience occurs, and its transformative potential is analysed. This chapter proposes a Two-C (compatible and complementarity) model which accommodates the blended learning and KM simultaneously. This suggests an integrated approach to provide for a balanced strategy in terms of both blended learning with KM approach can be applied in higher education institution (HEI).
