Fundamental of Computer Technology is a course in first year of college to enhance computer practical skill of undergraduate and provide experiment of computational thinking. There are three issues in fundamental of computer education. One is how to organize mass content of course. The second is how to combine academic education and technical practice in teaching. The last is students on various computer practical skill levels. To guarantee quality of teaching, a closed-loop architecture based on knowledge management is proposed, which can assist teacher to hold over teaching proceeding and arouse students to get knowledge. Then some data contain test scores and investigation results are provided to prove the efficiency of the closed-loop architecture. KEYWORD: Knowledge management; Knowledge map; Computer fundamental; Teaching methodology; Closed-loop; Lab teaching; Tacit knowledge International Conference on Social Science, Education Management and Sports Education (SSEMSE 2015) © 2015. The authors Published by Atlantis Press 2006 convert to tacit knowledge by systematic steps [1]. Psychology research indicated that tacit knowledge played important role in scientific innovation [2]. Tacit knowledge is acquired largely through association with other people, and requires joint or shared activities to be imparted from on to another [3].Knowledge management are Strategies and processes designed to identify, capture, structure, value, leverage, and share an organization's intellectual assets to enhance its performance and competitiveness[4]. The purpose of knowledge management is knowledge innovation [5]. It is based on two critical activities: capture and documentation of individual explicit and tacit knowledge, and its dissemination within the organization. As far as college teacher concerned, knowledge management is not only a teaching method, but also an effective tool to promote professional level. Many college teachers have no idea about knowledge management at present. Though knowing course content well, they are not good at structuring knowledge points, assessing the knowledge dimension of a course and proposing approach to capture the required knowledge quickly. Ma et al [6] discussed the importance of knowledge management for college teacher. It lists four advantages of knowledge management. First, it can help new teacher in mastering required knowledge and professional skill. Second, it would assist college to formulate training programs for teacher, reinforcing team construction. Third, teachers would clarify the relationships among the knowledge and draft appropriate teaching plan. The last is to enhance utilization of tacit knowledge and knowledge sharing in teachers. The paper is organized as follows. Section 1 introduces the situation of Fundamental of Computer Technology and the problems in teaching. Section 2 describes the conceptions of knowledge management and its potential for course promotion. Section 3 presents a closed-loop architecture based on knowledge management, and evaluates the architecture by data analysis. Section 4 concludes. 3 CLOSED-LOOP ARCHITECTURE The essence of teaching and learning is imparting and sharing activities of knowledge. In this process, students gain personal experiences. After that, new requests for knowledge are generated. New knowledge integrates to old knowledge system. At the end, personal knowledge system is updated. A successful education process should satisfy it. In practice, we design a closed-loop architecture to solve the three questions presented in section 1 by applying knowledge management to teaching deliberately. The close-loop architecture consists of three stages, illustrated in figure 1. Figure 1. Closed-loop architecture. First stage is teaching content management, aims at question 1 and question 3. Second stage is teaching process control, aims at question 2. Last stage is teaching summative evaluation, which provides basis for next teaching loop. 3.1 Teaching content management Composed of contents across various major disciplines, Fundamental of Computer Technology is a proper circumstance for knowledge management practice. Course content management emphasizes the internal relationship of knowledge. To communicate each pair of points in course content, it refers to content, identity, classify and structure knowledge. In this stage, the management is performed by teachers. It is realized in two approaches: collective course preparation of teachers and pre-course survey on students. 3.1.1 Teacher’s knowledge management Knowledge map is an effective tool for knowledge management, proposed by B. C. Brooks first. He mentioned that a person’s knowledge can formulated as a concept map in which a vertex represents a knowledge unit. Knowledge map is not only a guide to knowledge, but also is an organization's internal or external repositories or sources of knowledge [7]. The process oriented knowledge map of Fundamental of Computer Technology is represented by figure 2.
