RGHSBy knowing the 5-stage innovation-decision process
works? Rogers (2003) says:
The Innovator/plays gatekeeper role in new ideas of system. The Early adopter/puts his/her stamp of approval on idea.The Early majority/follows with deliberate willingness in adopting innovations but seldom leads. The Late majority/adopt new ideas just after the average member of a system.The Laggards/must be certain that new idea will not fail before they can adopt.

Schedule for adoption1. Change the Policy to allow individual teachers to choose to use
cell phones for academic purposes.2. Formally inform the staff, emphasizing it is their choice, but that
the school will allow cell phone use for academic assignments.3. Inform the parents of the new policy (K. Rogers)4. Hire an Agent for Change (I am available)5. Find a core group of five or so teachers to volunteer to use cell
phones and discuss their successes and failures .6. Revisit the issue after two years.
