On Tacit Knowledge in Academia.
Gerhom, Tomas
European Journal of Education, v25 n3 p263-71 1990
During the process of socialization into an academic discipline, the graduate student encounters two kinds of tacit knowledge: that which grows from long experience in the discipline and that generated by the students as they make sense of their graduate study experiences. Both are important and serve as guides for action. (MSE)
