Summary

This panel will explore the theoretical, methodological and design aspects of the temporal dimension in the study of knowledge creation and representation and offer insights into the challenges and the promises of future directions. Our specific goal is to begin a collaborative discussion around a number of important themes: 

• Articulation and refinement of basic concepts related to studies of knowledge situated in temporal context(s);
• Discussing existing theories and models of temporal dimensions of knowledge creation and representation along with new potential theories and models;
• Sharing of insights regarding techniques and methods used to study temporal dimensions of knowledge creation and representation; 
• Discussion of innovative approaches for triangulation in these temporal contexts.
