 SHAPING ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION
Conventional models of technology implementation, perhaps because they are premised on more stable forms of organization, generally assume that accommodation to the context of use occurs at the time of a technology's implementation, and that ongoing adaptation is unnecessary or adequately covered by routine maintenance.
Technology structuring is influenced by users' interpretations of their work, the organization, and technology, their access to organizational and technological resources, and the normative rules that guide action in their social context.
Communication technologies that are more specialized in their purpose (e.g., group decision support systems) may need less contextualizing than more general purpose technologies.
