Concerns-Based Adoption Model (CBAM)

The Concerns-Based Adoption Model (CBAM) is a framework that helps understand how individuals adopt new practices or innovations, particularly in education. It focuses on people's concerns about change and their levels of understanding and commitment. CBAM identifies different stages of adoption, from initial awareness to full implementation, and emphasizes that support and communication are crucial at each stage. By addressing individual concerns and providing tailored assistance, CBAM aims to facilitate smoother transitions and increase the effectiveness of innovation in organizations, ensuring that change is both effective and sustainable.
