2. 1- The linear model
of technological innovation
2- Technological determinism
3- The social construction of
Technology
3. Basically, "the linear model"
is based on the assumption
that innovation is applied
science. It is "linear"
because there is a well-
defined set of stages that
innovations are assumed to
go through. Research
(science) comes first, then
development, and finally
production and marketing.

PURPOSE AND
CONCEPTS
TECHNOLOGY PUSH MARKET PULL
Technology Push is when research and
development in new technology, drives
the development of new products.
Technology Push usually does not
involve market research. It tends to
start with a company developing an
innovative technology and applying it to
a product.
Market pull is when product
ideas are produced in response
to market forces or customer
needs. Examples of this include
the development of cameras,
which have become smaller,
more lightweight and higher
performing as a result of
customer needs.
6. 2-Technological
Determinism
PART 1
DEFİNATİON
Technological determinism is
the theory that a society's
technology determines its
cultural values, social
structure, and history.
According to the theory,
social progress follows an
inevitable course that is
driven by technological
innovation.
7. PART 2
ORIGIN
The term 'technological
determinism' was coined
by Thorstein Veblen and
this theory revolves
around the proposition
that technology in any
given society defines its
nature. Technology is
viewed as the driving
force of culture in a
society and it determines
its course of history.
8. LAST PART
PURPOSE AND CONSEPTS
TWO BASIC CONSEPTS
That technological
development itself follows a
predictable, traceable path
that is beyond any cultural or
political influence
That the technology in turn
organizes society in a way to
further develop itself
9. PART 1
DEFINITION
Social construction of technology
(SCOT) is a theory within the field of
science and technology studies.
Advocates of SCOT—that is, social
constructivists—argue that
technology does not determine
human action, but that rather, human
action shapes technology.
10. The Social Construction
of Technology (SCOT)
was introduced in 1984
by Bijker and Pinch.
Their paper The Social
Construction of Facts
and Artefacts or How the
Sociology of Science and
the Sociology of
Technology might Benefit
Each Other introduced
the theory and set forth
an argument to support it.
