We used the Concerns-Based Adoption Model [Hord et al, 1987] as the framework for
developing the recommended elements of the case story time-line. The model analyzes the

approach. Section 4 outlines some of the steps and issues in moving from a list of concerns to a
compelling and accurate narrative of an instructor's experiences with a new teaching approach.
