The industry is becoming more competitive and it is essential for any organization to continuously improve in order to stay competitive. As an effort to increase their technical and managenial capabilities, many organizations have been trying to adobt 'new knowledge' coming out of research and implementing it to their business processes. It is a common belif that tins theme of 'Knowledge Management' is helpful in keeping organizations healthy and competitive. This study was performed in the context of 'Knowledge Management'. This paper will describe the development process of the CII Knowledge Structure which was developed by CII to help its member organizations become incresingly 'knowlege-oriented'. The CII Knowldege Structure systematically organizes 'knowledge' that has been produced from various CII Research. Structure and contents of the CII Knowledge Structure and the implications of development of the Knowledge Structure will also be discussed in this paper.

With the rise in the functions required in modern building structures, the role of the building equipment that maintains the functions of a building has been emphasized and increased. Effective management in this area is only possible when the construction manager (CMr) is qualified and has the knowledge of building equipment that is needed. Therefore, in this study, a questionnaire survey was carried out on equipment engineers and CMrs, in order to determine the level of building equipment knowledge required, and to identify the perception level of CMrs about the building equipment in the construction project at the project design stage. The results of this study revealed that the CMrs surveyed had a lower level of knowledge on the building equipment than the level that was desired by the equipment engineers. This indicates that CMrs currently have a weak capacity for the management of building equipment. It is thus necessary for CMrs to undergo systematic training in order learn more about building equipment and thus be able to manage construction projects more efficiently.

The current economy is summarized by increasing business competitiveness and leaner organizations, and the risk and uncertainties inherent in such dynamic environments have increased the importance of managing organizational knowledge. Like the preceding, the construction industry is required to make an effort for survival and takeoff, and most construction companies recognize that knowledge management improves efficiency and effectiveness and the necessity on the innovation of business itself and it is the current of the times. But at this point in time, companies have doubts about performance following the introduction of KM, and set to show interest in developing a measurement method. So, This study analyzes the existing model for performance measurement and based on results derived, presents the method for performance measurement.

The purpose of the current study is to explore what are critical success factors(CSFs) from Posco Engineering and Construction Company's knowledge management practice. From a deep case study of the company, five CSFs are delineated. The first factor is to clarify knowledge management vision and strategy so that people in the company clearly understand directions of where the company goes to implement knowledge management. The second one is to grip the whole picture of knowledge management realms. Narrow eyes for the knowledge management leads to failure. The third factor depends on how to acquire people's cooperation. The fourth one has something to do with a way of approach. Unilateral or delegated approach is fragile for the successful implementation of knowledge management. Shared approach raises the probability of success. The fifth one is to monitor implementation acts and processes.

The purpose of this study is to explore how the practical knowledge used by an elementary school science teacher during learner-centered science instruction can promote elementary students' construction of positive emotion. Using an auto-ethnographic approach over a period of three months, the researchers collected students' interest diaries, post interviews with students, video recordings in science classes, and students' personal diaries and analyzed them by means of the constant comparative method. In this way, the researchers categorized the structure of the practical knowledge held by the teacher and explained how it was applied in learner-centered science instruction to promote students' construction of positive emotion. Three images of an elementary science teacher's practical knowledge emerged and can be categorized under the following headings: 1) 'From science classroom to science $caf{\acute{e}}$', 2) 'Pleasant experiment class for all students and the teacher', and 3) 'A science class for students who were marginalized'. These images were backed up by principles and rules, and the teacher came to embody these images as he implemented these rules. This study also discusses how the impact of a science teacher's practical knowledge on students' construction of positive emotions can be interpreted as promoting positive outcomes rather than negative sanctions, meeting students' expectation from lab activities, and meeting the specific needs of marginalized students in a science class.

More and more organizations in construction industry adopt knowledge management system (KMS) to facilitate process of creating, acquiring, capturing, sharing, and using knowledge so as to improve the competitiveness, productivity and efficiency of their organization. In spite of the tremendous efforts devoted to KMS, the return of investment on KMS is usually a black box to the investor due to the lack of a systematic framework for performance evaluation of the KMS. This paper aims at fulfilling such need. A conceptual performance evaluation framework is proposed based on Balanced Scorecard (BSC) method. Then a preliminary case study is conducted to assess the applicability of the proposed framework in an A/E consulting firm to evaluate the performance of KMS.

Various lean design and construction methods such as target value design, pull planning, value stream mapping have successfully transformed the commercial building construction industry into achieving improved productivity, higher design and construction quality, and meeting the target values of construction projects. Considering the significant advantages of lean, the accelerated dissemination and adoption of lean methods and tools for construction is highly desirable. Currently, the lean design and construction body of knowledge is imparted primarily through publications and conferences. However, one of the most effective ways to impart this soft knowledge is through getting students and trainees involved in hands-on participatory games, which can quickly help them truly understand the concept and apply it to real-world problems. The COVID-19 Pandemic has raised an urgent need of developing virtual games that can be played simultaneously from various locations over the Internet, but these virtual games should be as effective as in-person games. This research develops an online 3D simulation game for Target Value Design that is as effective as in-person games or possibly better in terms of knowledge capture and retention and enjoyable environment and experience. The virtual game is tested on volunteers using feedback from pre-and post- simulation surveys to evaluate its efficacy.
