ABSTRACT

As information technology develops rapidly and the Internet becomes more popular, virtual academic communities are gradually becoming an important part of the academic world. The traditional academic publishing model faces problems of information asymmetry and high access barriers, while the knowledge sharing of virtual academic communities enables academic research results to be more widely shared and utilized. It reduces the threshold for obtaining academic information and improves the efficiency of academic exchange. The virtual academic community provides an open and convenient platform for scholars worldwide to freely share and exchange their research results. This helps to promote cooperation and innovation in the academic community, accelerate the accumulation and dissemination of scientific knowledge. The average research cost of knowledge sharing is 90300 yuan less than the average research cost of knowledge unsharing. Studying the effect of knowledge sharing in virtual academic communities on the development of technology and economy can help deepen the understanding of the role of information technology in promoting academic change and collaborative innovation, and provide reference and reference for the development of technology and economy.
