Abstract

This research explores the use of Social Tagging as a means by which group knowledge is formed within a learning community. A study of an undergraduate Business School class that utilizes Social Tagging is undertaken to analyze the patterns and evolution of use of tags in order to make a case for Social Tagging as a viable means to visualize and facilitate group knowledge formation.
