The present study is framed within the utilization of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to design an implementation methodology for knowledge management based on the KMAT (Knowledge Management Assessment Tool) model, mediated by the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) technology, with the purpose of enhancing students' academic performance. This project was developed following the evaluative research paradigm and is categorized as an implementation analysis since its primary objective is the creation of a knowledge management methodology to optimize the academic use of ICT in Higher Education Institutions, with the subsequent evaluation of its impact on the environment.
The proposal of this method for knowledge generation from virtual learning environments (VLE) involves an interesting interaction among the concepts involved in the learning process with ICT. However, the main challenge lies in ensuring that the involved stakeholders can interpret and effectively apply the theoretical model in practice, considering the variables that best fit the idiosyncrasy of each specific case.It is anticipated that the research results will reveal that higher education students are underutilizing the technological tools they use in their daily lives. As a practical outcome, it is intended that through the KMAT knowledge management model supported by ICT resources provided by the VLE, improved academic outcomes will be achieved.
