Reminding and e-Learning

Abstract

'How do we get reminded?' is an important question for thinking about how real knowledge management should work. To make the computer really useful for work and for learning, we must think about building a reminding machine. A reminding machine would have in it thousands of stories from experts in various areas of life telling about important aspects of their lives that have lessons about life in them, the kind of stories you tell to colleagues or to students. What they would have in common would be lessons that follow from them about what to do if something like this happened again.
