Information versus Knowledge

Hi Valerie, welcome to the club!

This is what I use to show the distinction between information and knowledge. I hope this helps.

I prefer the above operational definitions of “tacit knowledge” and “explicit knowledge” (I shy away from ontological and epistemological definitions because they tend to be too impractical and often deteriorate into useless debates).
