Categories of Adopters
Innovators (venturesome) – “Their interest in new ideas leads them out of a local circle of peer networks and into more cosmopolite social relationships” (Rogers, 2003, pg. 282).
Early Adopters (respect) – “Are a more integrated part of the local social system than are innovators” (pg. 283).
Early Majority (deliberate) – “Adopt new ideas just before the average member of a system” (pg. 283).
Late Majority (skeptical) – “Adopt new ideas just after the average member of a system” (pg. 284).
Laggards (traditional) – “The last in a social system to adopt an innovation” (pg. 284).

Persuasion Strategies for Innovators and Early Adopters They will be shown the advantages of using an iPad in the
classroom. They will be shown the compatibilities of using an iPad in
comparison to a computer or text book. The ease of use will be demonstrated. The teachers and administrators will be allowed to try an
iPad. We will discuss other similar districts that are using iPads in
the classroom.

technology.
Persuasion Strategies They must be shown there is a true advantage to using the
iPad in the classroom. They must be shown how easy they are to use and update. They must be able to try the iPad for a set amount of time. If they observe others using them they may perceive a
need.
