Mission 2-Culture-The Internet Of Things Blog 2

Mission 2-Internet of things


Process

This wasn't really a hard mission to do overall, it was just very time consuming. It mos definitely took 30 hours to complete the tasks we set out to do and also at the same time it took time to figure out what really the internet of things was.

So firstly I will talk about the research that went behind the internet of things, we didn't really look for a lot of history one to two slides at most because it would just make the presentation boring in the end. We took some time out to research what the internet of things really is and also the security issues behind it all. 
We then preceded to look up how to do an online survey for free and this took some time to actually find a free good survey app because most you would have to pay for a monthly description, but I remembered back to my secondary school days where we used to use this application called Survey Monkey
It is a free software to make an online survey and was perfect to use in this mission. We then brainstormed questions that could be used for this survey and be in mind we did want to keep it involved around the security of the internet of things. So once we had our list of questions, and the survey was complete we asked literally everyone from our course, family members and friends to take the survey and the results where extraordinary. We also went around to random people in the college to take the survey and some people actually did so. 
The numbers that we got in the end was around 300 people taking part in our survey which was more than enough.

So the results we got where crazy, we found out a lot of people do feel uncertain about the expansion of the internet of things but are still excited to see what the future will bring. 

Another part of what we did for this project was create a mind map. We thought that a mind-map would be a cool way of showing people how the internet of things is used in everyday life e.g. School, Home, Work etc. The mind-map was done for free online and turned out great because we tried to make it all colorful and something that would catch the eyes of the viewers. 



As you can see it turned out great and was most definitely my favorite aspect of this whole project was doing the mind map

One last thing we included in our project was the pros and cons of the IOT because there where quite a few if you think about it and that was just all to do with the safety. aspects of how things like your fridges can connect to the internet.

Mission 3-Methodology-Digital Journalism Blog 1

Mission 3-Digital Journalism Product For this project I was with Mark O'Brien and Jack Clinton, we decided to do Digital Journalism because we had some sort of interest in the topic and we thought it would be a suitable mission for the few weeks ahead. We weren't sure at the beginning how we where going to present the mission in video for because we wanted to get as much information across to our audience so we came up with a list of ideas of what we could do for this mission and the list is as follows: *A podcast where we can talk about a certain topic in Digital Journalism to date *A new show where we can make up a news story based around digital journalism *A voice over of a power point documentation based on the idea of digital journalism and everything about it from past to present In the end after multiple days of deciding Mark, Jack and I came to the conclusion that we where going to do the podcast, the reason being is because it was the best wa...

Mission 1- Creativity-Digital Audio Blog 3

Mission 1- Creativity-Digital Audio Blog 3 Reflection So at the end of the mission we got a satisfactory which was a decent score considering the fact that it was our very first mission that we have done. The presentation itself turned out very well with only 2 slides of history which was more than enough and for the class to be able to listen to the podcast very clearly. I think it was a good idea to shorten the podcast down completely and just have a little part of what we recorded, maybe we could have 2 or more parts for a bit more meat and to show the work that we actually did rather than just have one short one and that is it, because it looked like we just recorded the podcast in like five minutes.  One thing we can all definitely take from this mission is to have more meat in our missions so that we can show that we definitely spent more than 30 hour on this project. Because now that i look back on it the work wasn't really shown in the presentation, the time wa...

Mission 3-Methodology-Digital Journalism Blog 2

Mission 3-Digital Journalism Process For the process since we knew what we where doing and we had the time to complete this mission it was quite easy to finish it, it started off with the development phase where we all came together and decided what we wanted the podcast to be structured like. We had already know that we wanted to base it off a Joe Rogan podcast because his podcasts are the greatest one on the internet to date. So basically once we had our style for the podcast set out we each took a different topic to talk about on the podcast, I took Instagram and how they portray there news feed, Jack took Snapchat and the same again how do they portray there new, and Mark chose Twitter for his part. We then found a room that was quiet enough and not too echoey so the sound quality of the video wouldn't be bad we set up the camera and the microphone on the computer and began to record, we brought up our topics throughout the podcast and had a discussion on each, c...
