The Content:
Now that you know what innovation is, identify and reflect upon one innovation that has or will radically alter the way things are done within your field (preferably a disruptive innovation, though any advancement or innovation trend can be used). These could be innovations specific to your field (e.g., particular technologies that are domain specific, like medical imaging equipment) or are more general innovations that impact multiple fields but specifically impact yours in a unique way (e.g., how the internet impacted education).
1. Identify and describe the details of your field and the innovation you chose.
2. Describe how the innovation has impacted or is forecasted to impact your field.
3. Reflect on the positive and negative impacts of this disruption to your field. For example, how does this impact the day-to-day workings of those in your industry, for better or for worse? How does this change the economic viability of particular skill sets that people have acquired? What are the implications for training and education? What do you need to do to adapt to this innovation?
