Abstract

This chapter aims to explore the knowledge sharing model in virtual communities within the metaverse domain and proposes a way to enhance knowledge sharing and innovation in these communities. The study takes into account the practical implications of digital ethics and digital citizenship and the impact they have on the shaping of digital ethics. Based on the analysis of relevant practices and prior research, a knowledge sharing model for virtual communities in the metaverse is constructed. The results show that the basic process of knowledge sharing involves the selection and acquisition of community knowledge in three dimensions, internalization and absorption of situational knowledge to form a “knowledge black box,” and finally, sharing through private domain knowledge broadcasting and diffusion. The current practices in virtual communities within the metaverse domain are limited and lack empirical evidence.
