1)What do you think are the most useful forms of knowledge management systems? Discuss several different options and the contexts within which they are appropriate. What do you think are the biggest challenges to knowledge management (and why are they challenges)?

What questions do you think need to be answered to determine whether a decision support system is appropriate?

Don't restrict yourself to knowledge management in the context of paid labor. You might think about knowledge management for your school work or in other settings.
