Multiple models exist for understanding and predicting the adoption of technological innovations including SAMR, TPACK, and ADDIE. The authors have found these models are generally static, thus discounting the inherently iterative nature of adopting technological innovations. To address this gap, the authors have proposed a new model called Fusion+SNA which combines the dynamic nature of activity theory and diffusion of innovation research with an in-depth understanding of social networks. The authors employ the Fusion+SNA model in a case study that reported on a real attempt at an adoption of technological innovation in a K-12 context with a cohort of fifth-grade students and their teachers.

The aim of the study is to describe and increase understanding about digital service design in creating technological innovations in Finnish hospital districts. The data was collected via an open questionnaire during March-August 2019 and analyzed using a combined thematic and narrative analysis. Three distinct themes arose from the research narratives: cooperation, development, and cost. First, the importance of cooperation in the early stages of the service design process, when new technological innovation ideas are developed, was emphasized. Second, the possibilities of digitalization and need for new innovations were taken into account in the development theme. Third, costs define the utilization of an innovation and guide its initial development. If savings and costs are in balance, technological innovations will move forward. Moreover, the findings show that technological innovations in hospital districts progress in a certain pattern, and the utilization of innovations come from the need and pressure to evolve.

This paper postulates that corporate core-rigidities affect an established firm's adaptation to technological innovation. This manuscript further clarifies that when the implementation of new activities is sacrificed at the cost of an established firm's core-rigidities, the firm may find it difficult to (incrementally or radically) incorporate new technological innovations into their operations. To analyze these issues in greater detail, this paper evaluates the Toyota Motor Company as a case study for an organization's struggle to simultaneously adapt two innovations. Interviews at the Chinese production base for Toyota served as the methodology for this case study.

Relational understanding constitutes students’ awareness of appropriate procedures to solve problems along with logical reasoning.  Itis pivotal to help students solve problems in mathematics. It is necessary that the teaching of mathematics be directed to achieve relational understanding. Accordingly, students are capable of solving complicated problems in mathematics. This current research aims at analyzing and describing relational understanding and the patterns of answering questions of the fifth graders on integer operation. This study used a qualitative approach with a case study as the research design. Further, three students belonging to the fifth grade of Elementary School in Malang City, Indonesia, were set up as the research subjects. A test was administered to measure the subjects' relational understanding. All collected data were analyzed using an interactive technique. The result has indicated that the highly-proficient student was able to show excellent relational understanding. Besides, it was shown that the fairly-proficient student could show good relational understanding. The lowly-proficient student was shown to be able to achieve only half of the holistic criteria set for relational understanding. The patterns of answering the questions demonstrated by all students in all levels included jotting down the models, completing the models, and answering the questions. The highly-proficient student understood the information and wrote it down. Whilst the fairly-proficient student understood the information without translating it into the written form. At last, the lowly-proficient student did not pronounce any signals of understanding of the information
