I wrote this post today partly in reaction to Harold Jarche's post on personal knowledge management and partially - as I developed a full head of steam - in preparation for the talk I gave this afternoon. The three models are:

- knowledge production as construction
- knowledge production as growth
While arguably elements of all three models are required for a robust account of knowledge production, my inclination, for various reasons, is to place the most emphasis on the third.
