Mission 2-Internet of things

Reflection

I found this mission to be quite a difficult one in the end, we got satisfactory which is fine but it was all to do with the fact that we looked at the internet of things in a different way to what we should have. I found it a bit of a challenge also to get people to do the survey at the beginning, even though it may not have seen like it was a challenge it really was, until we realized that we could ask people via WhatsApp to do the survey.

Another thing that we found quite difficult about this project was figuring out what the IOT actually really was because we looked at it in the way of things that can connect to the internet like your phone for example, but in fact it was actually to do with things that are not primarily supposed to connect to the internet e.g. a fridge.

One other part of this mission that we found very hard to complete was actually figuring out what we should do for the mission for example for the last mission there was a lot of steps involved in making the podcast, rather than in this mission it was quite hard to find out what should be the meat of the project. We found out what to do in the end and yes we did already have the suggested tasks at hand but we still found it quite difficult to find out what to do for the mission.
The mind map in my opinion was my favorite part of this project by far the reason being is because it allowed us to think where in life would the internet of things be used day by day everywhere you go.
Another aspect of the mission that I found really enjoyable was the research part and figuring out what the future hold for the IOT it really interests me because I am all about the future and really cant wait to see how things that are not originally designed to connect to the internet.

If I was to go back and re do this mission I would most definitely do more research on the Internet of things and just get a greater understanding of what it really is rather than the way we looked at it, I also may look at doing more than one survey and more than one mind map just because it would add more meat to the mission and would make it a great project in the end of it all

I definitely enjoyed doing this mission and hopefully we will see the evolution of the Internet of Things in the near future

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-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...
