Value Conflicts in the Management of Innovation: supporting information technology innovation in initial teacher training in the United Kingdom
Abstract
This paper is concerned with the process of innovation at both the institutional and personal‐professional levels. The focus is on the practical and moral dilemmas of managing innovation in the context of coercive policies imposed from outside. Innovation is defined as any activity or practice which involves human beings in changes to established routines. It is always embedded in a unique, multi‐level context. Qualitative methods are used to examine the case of five institutions in the UK working within a funded project to introduce more effective use of information technology in initial teacher education. The aim of the paper is to use the case to generate theories which, although they cannot be generalised to other contexts, can inform the thinking of those responsible for the management of innovation in other institutions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
