Knowledge management in education journals

The aim of this research was to review journal publications on knowledge management from 2006 to 2015. The publications were selected from the list of thematic journals on general education, teaching and organization. Four categories were selected for purposes of analysis and a frequency table was developed for each of the categories by year and journal. Four sections were analyzed: information management, transformation of information into knowledge, management of resultant learning and satisfaction with the knowledge generated. The results show that the frequency rate per year has a bell-shaped curve which increases over the period 2006-2009; becomes more marked from 2010 to 2013 until reaching a peak in 2013 and falls again to the initial levels in 2014 and 2015, although this last year is not very representative due to the proximity with the current date. The two central categories are the most frequent: transformation of information into knowledge (storage, structure, assimilation) and management of resultant learning (transfer, use, application and lessons learned from the new knowledge).
