Explanation
According to Seels and Richey, "Utilization is the act of using processes and resources for learning." When practitioners are focusing on Utilization they are taking into consideration not only the learner, but the instructional materials, as well. For example, a practitioner who is implementing a new training software program at a large corporation may have to first calm the nerves of the employees who are resistant to change or who fear new technologies. Tis is referred to as "Diffusion of Innovations."
