Dual Cycle Model of Innovation and Strategic Foresight
Ever wondered why some organisations have the ability to re-invent entire industries, time and time again?
Where does this source of continuous innovation and foresight come from?
Ever considered that these organisations have two separate innovation cycles in motion?
Good organisations are able to innovate and improve what they know. What the great organisations are able to achieve is the continuous ability to regenerate its own core strategies, based on what they don’t yet know, re-inventing entire industries along the way.
Innovation, Marketing and New Technology Foresight 2010
The document discusses Science Foundation Ireland (SFI), a statutory body that funds research in Ireland.

Wayne gray presentation
120 years ago the emergent field of experimental psychology became embroiled in debates as to whether plateaus in performance are real (or not) and if so whether they were due to periods in which league-stepping methods (originally defined as a hierarchy of habits that enabled experts to step leagues while novices were ``bustling over furlongs or inches'') were being acquired (or not). 20 years ago both the human-computer interaction and cognitive science communities were seized with concerns over performance plateaus (i.e., extended periods of stable suboptimal performance) from experts. I briefly review this history with the aim of drawing distinctions between performance asymptotes and performance plateaus, and argue that remediating one is the domain of design while remediating the other is the domain of training.
Trend Analysis
The document discusses methods for detecting, tracking, and characterizing trends on social networks.

Participatory scenario building
Farmers manage large areas of landscapes that are altogether designed by heterogeneous actors. Conflicts may eventually arise in complex regions like the Mediterranean where the urban and agricultural actors’ spaces for action easily overlap and concur for the use and management of soil and water. A territorial or landscape perspective is therefore required to inform the design of land management systems capable to meet the place-based development goals. A greater involvement of agronomy in the landscape arena would help to design landscape management policies that are better informed of farming systems. Our aim is to present a territorial approach that supported a prospective analysis for the design of shared land management actions using the territory game.

LTAG Horizon Scanning
The document discusses learning analytics, which involves measuring, collecting, analyzing, and reporting data about learners and learning environments to understand and optimize the learning process. Learning analytics can be used to monitor learner activity and progress, predict outcomes, and enable interventions. For the University of Edinburgh, learning analytics could increase student satisfaction and overall survey ratings. However, opportunities are balanced with barriers like determining what data is most useful, defining student success, ensuring ethical practices and data literacy, and understanding impacts on students. Usage of the university's virtual learning environments has increased but opportunities also exist in analyzing library, computing, and wireless network usage data.
The impact of foresight on innovation
1) Foresight has evolved as a tool to support forward-looking decision making in policy and business by bringing together stakeholder perspectives on alternative futures. However, its impact needs to be realistically assessed to manage expectations.
2) The article examines foresight's role in innovation policy. It reviews evaluations of several national foresight programs and develops a framework to classify the impacts of different prospective analysis types on policy.
3) Factors driving the use of foresight in policy include increased uncertainty, the need for flexibility, and intensifying social and accountability pressures surrounding new technologies and public spending. Foresight can help policymakers identify weak signals necessitating changes and support "quantum leaps" in policy.

Universities in 2020: A Technology Perspective by Lee Rainie
The document discusses how technology will transform universities by 2020. It outlines several major shifts including (1) changing information ecosystems for networked learners due to ubiquitous connectivity and social media, (2) new literacies becoming required to navigate these environments, and (3) big data and the "internet of things" leading to an "exaflood" of information. It suggests universities will need to adapt to students being more self-directed learners who capture diverse inputs and rely on feedback from their networks.
The Road to Digital Citizenship
For the Campus Technology 2010 Executive Summit. I began with a composite video of clips from the folks in the URLs in the first slide. The Michael Wesch video is located at the specific URL. The MJSokes clips were from his demos and lessons for "Blackbird" and "I Saw Her Standing There." The Khan Academy clip was from the first lesson on the atom.The "Symphony of Science" clip was from the "We Are All Connected" video.
Media Fluency?
This document discusses the concepts of information literacy, digital information fluency, and "media fluency". It argues that the current focus on teaching media production skills alone is an "epic fail" and that we should instead focus on developing "medium fluency" or "meta-medium fluency", which is the ability to understand and work with digital media and information as flexible tools and environments. The document provides several examples and perspectives to support this idea and concludes with three discussion questions about how to support the development of medium and meta-medium fluency in students.
Recognizing the Gift
This document provides an overview of new technologies and their impact on learning in the 21st century. It discusses how digital media represents a new medium that combines technical inventions and cultural expression. It also outlines predictions for advances in digital technologies like video playback speeds, camera resolution and mobile device capabilities. Several key concepts are defined around the nature of technology, including Brian Arthur's view that technology fulfills human purposes and that a collection of technologies is also a technology. Examples are given of educational technologies like the credit hour system. The potential of new media to support more engaged and collaborative learning is explored.
