Everett Roger’s Diffusion of Innovation Model

Diffusion of Innovative Practices among Heritage Institutions

▶ What are the links and mutual influences between the various Internet-related practices? Is there a typical path institutions follow when adopting the practices under consideration?

▶ Which context factors at the country level influence the adoption of the various practices?

▶ To what extent do attitudes with regard to the different practices change as heritage institutions transit through the various stages of the innovation adoption process?

▶ Calculated as part of the UN E-Government Survey

▶ Three Sub-Indexes:

▶ E-Information Sharing: Use of online services to facilitate provision of information by governments to citizens

▶ E-Consultation: Interaction with stakeholders

▶ E-Decision Making: Engagement in decision-making processes

E-Participation Index

▶ All Internet-related practices are self-reinforcing: higher adoption levels translate into higher scores on perceived importance and desirability

▶ Small differences, but no dramatic effects in attitudes across adoption stages

▶ Attitude changes are slow; in some cases, crucial attitude changes seem to lag behind changes of practice (e.g. with regard to «open content»)

▶ Institutions are heading for a win-win situation, based on more ‘openness’ towards and participation by users:

▶ improved visibility and perceived relevance of institutions▶ improved access to external working power and expertise▶ improved interactions and relationship with users▶ networking and community building among target audiences and

heritage institutions▶ increased sense of public ownership and responsibility among users
