Assessment Details
The Digital Revolution is not limited to the past - we should expect changes to continue for the foreseeable future. The aim of this assessment is for you to explore how IT might change a particular industry in the future, based on current trends and upcoming technologies.

"Disrupting the Soft Drink Industry with Robotic Process Automation".

Not all options are strictly technologies, some are applications of technology

Preliminaries
- Create an ePortfolio page which you will use to submit your work. Make sure you keep the page private - you do not need to set the visibility of your ePortfolio to public for this assessment task.
Ensure you complete this step. ePortfolios are the best way we have to allow video assignment submissions. Please don't submit a Word or PDF document unless prior approval is granted by your lecturer.
- Access the Topic Generator through Moodle, and choose one of the available topics.

Part one - Research
The first step to creating your video and report is to explore both the technology and the industry, to understand the potential impacts.
- Write a short description of the technology and the industry (150-300 words each), and add both to your ePortfolio page. You may use any relevant sources, including websites, blogs, tweets, journal articles and textbooks. Ensure you cite any sources appropriately.
If you are unsure of how to reference sources, please review the Academic Integrity Module, or contact a Learning Skills Advisor. Plagiarism is not acceptable!

Part two - Brainstorming disruptions
- For your topic, list at least four ways the technology may change or disrupt the industry (50-150 words each). Include this list on your ePortfolio page.
Disrupt doesn't necessarily mean bad - it just means a big change. You could think about how Uber disrupted the taxi industry, or how Amazon disrupted the retail industry.
If you are having trouble, remember that this is a creative task - it's ok for your ideas to be 10 or 30 years in the future. The more you can come up with at this stage the better, even if you think your ideas are completely implausible.

Part three - Disruption
- Choose a single one of your changes or disruptions. Indicate in your ePortfolio which disruption you choose.
- Identify one process within your industry or activity that would be affected by your chosen disruption. For this process, determine its triggering Event, any Activities, Decision Points, and Actors/Resources, and finally an Outcome.
- Provide a written description of how this process will be affected by your chosen disruption.
- Support your written description with BPMN process models of the process before and after disruption.
The purpose of your models is to show the impact of the technology on the business process; let that guide your level of detail.

Part four - Ethics
- Identify at least four factors or constraints that may regulate the disruption described in part three. Frame these within Lessig's pathetic dot theory. That is, market, law, architecture, and norms (social/ethical).
At least one of these four factors must be an ethical constraint.
- Write approximately 150 words on each of the factors identified above. Your ethical constraint must be related to an ethics framework, such as Utilitarianism or Deontology.

Part five - Visualization and Video
- Using Excel or a similar product, create a graphic or visualization to show how your disruption will affect the industry in some way. This can be based on real data or estimates. You may design an infographic if you prefer.
- Explain how you approached designing the graphic or visualization, including an interpretation if you have created a chart (150-300 words)

You must create this graphic yourself. Appropriately reference any sources you use.
- Using any software you like, create a two-minute video to accompany your report.
Two minutes is not very long. You don't have to cover everything from your report, nor all of your brainstormed ideas. You may choose to talk about several of your ideas at a shallow level, or speak in more depth about just one. Pick whatever is going to make the most engaging 2-minute video.
Your video can be made however you like - talking to camera; using narrated slides; describing a sketch; animation, or combining multiple methods. Choose an approach that best suits you and the content you are trying to deliver. Prefer screen recording software to simply pointing a camera at a laptop.
Your video must include your visualization.
Regardless of how you choose to make sure your video, ensure:
• sound and narration is clearly audible;
• enough context is included to demonstrate understanding of the industry and the technology, and the significance of the impact;
• the length is between 1:45 and 2:15;
• an appropriate sequence is followed so that a viewer can understand the context and content;
• graphical elements are clearly legible.
