Title: Manifestations of Tacit Knowledge in Metaphors of StudentTeacher
Abstract: In the presentation, firstly we deal with the
operationalization of the tacit knowledge, so that it is
possible to do the research of tacit knowledge. We define tacit
knowledge in contrast to explicit knowledge on the basis of two
criteria – the degree of knowledge awareness and the degree of
knowledge articulation. As a key element for the research of
tacit knowledge have been identified metaphors. The aim of our
appearance is to present the results of qualitative research,
specifically, study of one case – student teacher Alena. The
empirical material was gained by a non-traditional way of
conducting in-depth interview called “clean language”. This is
the method of inquiry that can be included in
neurophenomenological tradition. In the analysis of the data we
are looking for the answer to the question, how is the tacit
knowledge manifested in the context of metaphorical expression
of students, and as a result we identify four different
manifestations. In the light of the research findings in the
final discussion we raise the question of whether instead of
focusing on the detection of the tacit knowledge rather focus
on their intentional influence.
