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 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 perf...

Mission 1- Creativity-Digital Audio Blog 1 Product For this mission the group i was in was with Mark O'Brien and Sam O'Sullivan. What our aim of this mission was and the final product we had to produce was what we chose to do and that was a podcast. We needed to explore Digital Audio in our own ways and explore how digital audio could be used in a podcast to make it turn out amazing and also interesting. We knew by the end of this mission and the we would have a greater understanding of what digital audio is all about, and the end product would turn out to be a good way to show our understanding of Digital Audio. We firstly knew we had to overcome not knowing each other which was a challenge in itself but we firstly had to consider what our goals would be for this mission. The goals where as followed: *To explore the idea of digital audio *To think about how digital audio is used in everyday life *To think about how digital audio has changed drastically over ...

Mission 1- Creativity-Digital Audio Blog 2 Process The process was the fun part of completing this mission because it was exploring something new for all of us. We didn't really have any idea of how this product would turn out in the end of the mission. So firstly I will talk about the research that went behind in finding out what type of podcast we would want to  produce for the viewer to listen to. Basically we all went onto YouTube and listened to about 9 hours of different podcasts each to find the write style we wanted to go with. So after exploring for ages we finally came to the conclusion we where going to go with a Joe Rogan styled podcast because we found his to be most interesting to listen to.  Then we decided to go ahead and get straight into the recording of our podcast and get it done as quickly as possible. We took a day out to try find somewhere in the college to record and also find the most suitable place so our voices wouldn't be echoing ...
