WEEK 1 LEARNING SUMMARY

Week one a SWOT analysis was the focus of discussion one. A SWOT outlines the strenghts, weaknesses, opportunities and threats to a given situation or experience. This analysis is a pre-course to actually determine whether or not the one should pursue the task at question, or it can be used as a planning tool to ouline the outcomes and what can be expected. Based on the 2009 Horizons Report, the SWOT analysis was done on mobile technology, along with geo-everything, personal web, semantic software and smart objects.
