Students in tourism and hospitality management curriculum are expected to gain an essential body of integrated knowledge and to develop management skills relevant to their future profession from the internship. Knowledge management (KM) has emerged to be one of management concepts in the industry. This paper presents the application of KM as a learning tool for intern students. To achieve the goal, first, relevant literature review and the discussions on the issues of KM and internship were applied to construct a concept structure. Then, the interviews with 30 interns were conducted to understand their needs regarding the knowledge contents and the KM functions. Finally, by applying the knowledge management system (KMS) software of Vital KM, the concrete internship KMS was designed and developed from student perspective. This KMS consists of the general features, including autonomous acquisition, intelligent classification, autonomous relativity, personalization and autonomous abstracting. The research results offer the references in terms of the KMS framework for internship. It is also suggested that the future research may enhance the extent to which the academic institutes implement KM practices into students’ curriculum learning. |
