Conduct a critical inquiry to propose a digital technologies outcome
You need to pick a real problem or opportunity in digital technology, ask specific questions about it, and research what already exists. Then you analyse what you've found, come up with a clear solution or outcome (like an app, system, or digital tool), and explain what could go wrong and how you'd prevent that. Finally, you write up everything you discovered and how your idea answers your original question.
You identify an inquiry focus and question, gather relevant research, propose a workable digital outcome, name some risks and how to manage them, and report your findings clearly.
You compare different approaches or perspectives on the problem, discuss future possibilities and their impact, stay organised through your project, and evaluate both strengths and weaknesses of your proposed outcome.
You critically examine your sources for bias and reliability issues, suggest specific improvements or extensions to your work, evaluate how accurate and relevant your findings are, and show real depth in your critique of the proposed solution.
