Essay - Research Report

Prepare the research report on the given topic

Topic - USER INNOVATION Innovation Report

- Research into Distributed Innovation topics
- Learning to do critical analysis on a single innovation concept (topic) and understanding its application with real-world IT examples

- To further develop the research being conducted for the Presentation
- You may keep the same Industry / Case studies
- You may keep the same Technology
- But applied to a different innovation concept!

Choose a topic related to distributed innovation topics (or their subtopic)
1. Crowdsourcing, e.g., subtopic is crowdfunding
2. Web APIs
3. Open source software
4. Open data source
5. User innovation, e.g., subtopic could be comparison to Producer innovation
6. Maker movement
7. Platform Eco-systems
8. Other (check with the Lecturer)

- Write a report on your chosen topic
- A summary of key points from the innovation literature (or other credible sources) on the topic.
- Detailed discussion of 2 real-world IT-related examples.
- The discussion should clearly pick out points from the literature (e.g. models, frameworks, theories) and show how the examples illustrate these (or say why they don't).
- The discussion should also compare and contrast the 2 IT-related examples in relation to the topic.

- You should use the innovation literature such as that on
- crowdsourcing (e.g. Brabham),
- user innovation (e.g. von Hippel),
- open innovation (e.g. Chesbrough),
- modularity (e.g. Baldwin),
- platforms (e.g. Cusumano),
- platform economics (e.g. Choudry),
- Maker movement (e.g., D Dougherty)
- etc.

- Choosing two examples:
- If possible, choose examples that are current or from the last three years.
- Pick at least one example that is discussed in a reputable Journal / Conference article
- You may choose to use examples from your own company (if you have permission to use any material needed).
- If in doubt about whether your topic or examples are appropriate, check with the Teaching team

- Do not rely on a single paper which introduces two examples!
- New examples - innovation is a fast moving topic!
- Do not necessarily accept all that you read at face-value, e.g. from self-published articles.

Report Structure

- The word limit is 1800 words (not including references, appendices, figures and tables). Little over e.g., 50 words is Okay, but try to keep it within the limit.
- Figures (images or diagrams), tables and quotes are typically very effective in an essay. Please use them, but only if it adds useful information to your report. If you do, you must reference the source of the information.
- You are encouraged to create your own figures and tables. If you do, show that you created them (eg "created by Firstname Surname for INFO5992")
- When referring to a figures / tables, make sure appropriate description is given so that they are understandable - figures / tables contain a lot of information!
- There is no template - please use a template of your own choice. It is OK for the text to be either single-spaced or double-spaced.
