Abstract

In an era marked by swift technological advancements and an escalating emphasis on collaborative learning, understanding effective methods and technologies for sharing knowledge is imperative to optimize educational outcomes. This study delves into the varied methods and technologies applied to facilitate and support knowledge sharing within learning communities. To achieve this, a systematic literature review was conducted, systematically collecting and scrutinizing pertinent literature. Employing automated searches, title-based selection, and reputation-based filters ensured the inclusion of high-quality studies. The chosen studies underwent a meticulous evaluation, considering factors like relevance, methodological robustness, and currency. The literature review unveiled a diverse array of methods and technologies employed in learning communities to facilitate effective knowledge sharing. The outcomes of this study offer a comprehensive snapshot of the existing literature, underscoring the significance of methods and technologies in supporting knowledge sharing within learning communities. By comprehending the strengths, challenges, and potential future trajectories, educators, researchers, and policymakers can make informed decisions to enhance the efficacy of knowledge sharing within learning communities.
