Awareness, interest, evaluation, trial and adoption = the steps toward change
“
| — | Adoption of change is a multistep process. The steps are awareness, interest, evaluation, trial and adoption, as mentioned at http://tinyurl.com/3wkc9fq. Another model lists awareness or attention, relevance, confidence and satisfaction (http://tinyurl.com/6godgl) as the steps. Faculty have been called “refective practitioners” (http://tinyurl.com/6godgl) so breaking evaluation, trial and adoption into separate steps makes sense to me. What do you think? Does it add unnecessary complexity or does it help clarify the process that we all go through, whether losing weight, stopping smoking, or integrating a new technology into our teaching? |
