Not only the teachers but also the administrative boards of many educational institutions are keen on the idea of adopting technology for teaching purposes. However, the process of implementing new technologies and managing radical changes is far from being a straightforward operation. The successful implementation of new technologies requires considerable effort especially by the administrative people involved. This paper presents a case study of the implementation of an EFL innovation in the form of CALL (Computer Assisted Language Learning) in a Turkish State University's EFL Preparatory School. It is argued that teachers should be engaged participants in the change process and that this increases the chance of successful implementation of the innovation concerned.
