Technology In Society Project
PROJECT OVERVIEW
In this assignment, you will visually represent how technological innovations have met a specific social need over time.
To complete this assignment, do the following:
- Identify a social need that technological innovations have addressed.
- Create a graphic/visual representation of how technology has served over a period of time to meet the social need you identified. You may either:
- Identify one innovation that has evolved over time to meet the need. For example, show the evolution of an innovation over time, such as, a household appliance, an airplane, telecommunications, timepiece, etc.
- Identify several different innovations that have been created over time to address the need. For example, the social need of aerial transportation has been met by balloons, airplanes, etc. The social need of communication has been met by the telegraph, telephone, e-mail, etc.
- On your visual representation, project into the future to show either where you see the innovation(s) going or how your social need will be met in the future.
