Cycles of Innovation in the Adoption of Information Technology: A View for Language Teaching
Pennington, Martha C.
Computer Assisted Language Learning, v17 n1 p7-33 Feb 2004
A framework for viewing developments in information technology [IT] is presented as an elaborated model of the adoption of innovations, with implications for language teaching. The model is loosely based on that of Rogers (1995), but involves three successive phases of "innovation-adoption". The model provides a context for a discussion of CALL and information technologies in language teaching.
