Welcome to The Impact of Technology
Welcome to the course! We start with a short introduction module where you will get a general introduction, a description of the overall process we will follow, a historical example and an assignment. You will after this module have a good general overview of the course and knowledge about what you will learn and what to expect.
Theory and models - practical useRelevant theories will help us in estimating the impact of technology. In this module three key innovation theories are included and by the end a more broad perspective is introduced.
Technology delta and barriersWhen estimating the potential impact of a technology, it is essential to understand the technology delta: How much better is the new technology and is this delta significant enough to overcome the barriers to implementation and realise its full potential? We will in this module look at both the technology delta and the barriers to implementation. Supporting this analysis, the Gartner hype cycle, megatrends and industry transformation are given special attention.
ForesightForesight in general, and backcasting in particular, is included in this module. After a general overview this module is built around one interactive sequential backcasting case.
Value networksTechnologies with a significant impact put existing value networks out of balance. New value networks are emerging around new technologies. This module covers value networks basics and let's you practice how to predict potential new value network roles and structures.
Business roles and ideasRoles within value networks are further studied in this module. The role, its relationships and dependencies are analyzed. You will learn how to assess, chose and develop a, for you, interesting value network role.
StrategyIt's not enough to identify potential roles, we also need to know how to get from where we are today to a desired position. The impact of a technology depends on how it is implemented. This module gives you some basic insights regarding strategy and what to consider regarding its formulation and implementation.
Finale - The Impact of TechnologyWe have come to the end of the course. This video and the exam are the final elements included.
In this course, you will learn how to use theories and methods to make predictions of the potential impact of new technology – in general, as well as for a specific application. This will prepare you for the changes that we are facing in society, and also help you take advantage of transformations that are driven by technology. The Impact of Technology course takes a broad approach, including social and economic factors. You will study historical examples and learn to recognize recurring patte
Very Meaningful and align with my profession, so i can use for build my future accordingly
Well structured course with good case studies and interesting and realistic assignments
The Impact of Technology assisted me to explore innovation opportunities in FINTECH, farming and healthcare.Thank you EIT Digital
One of the best programs I have truly acquired new knowledge Thanks to Coursera and Mr: Martin Vendel
The peer graded assignments can be a drag to completion, otherwise an excellent course
