Replacement Intro article: Theories of technology attempt to explain the factors that shape technological innovation as well as the impact of technology on society and culture. Previously, the two main theories of technology could be placed under the linear model of technological innovation or technological determinism. As technology has developed and changed, these theories of technology have changed and evolved to differ and sometimes contradict the original theories. Theories that are classified as a Social theory explore how technology impacts individual human behavior, and how individual humans interact because of technology. Group theories focus on how technology affects and influences group processes. Analytic theories take a more theoretical approach and scientists focus on the different views of technology’s affects.

Inserted as the intro to the 'Social Theories' section: Social theories can look at how technology attempts to address the definition and substance of technology, and the ways it has emerged, changed and its relation to the human/social sphere.
