Digitization and industry - The design and use of work technologies
4 important questions on Digitization and industry - The design and use of work technologies
The study of technology also cuts across a number of levels of analysis:
- Cognitive
- Organizational
- Social issues
Advantages of the systems approach:
- Understanding the demands technology can place on the individual and the impact it can have upon social factors involved in work and the influence it may have upon social factors.
- It also has the advantage that it facilitates an interdisciplinary perspective on work technologies
- A second advantage is that a systems perspective allow the researcher to examine the different types of interfaces that should be addressed when considering the impact of new technology
- Within a system-based framework it is important to bear in mind the stages of initial requirements gathering, through to stages of design, deployment, and redesign
Adaptive structuration theory:
- Often used to understand change processes that occur when ISs are implemented and adopted
- Examines the types of structures that are provided by IS and the structures that emerge in human action as a result of interaction
- The theory describes how a technology’s inherent structural characteristics shape interaction patterns without determining the interaction in a definitive way
