Media Design & Technology Industries ◆
2.1 Industry Growth
This discussion is designed for you to critically think about
how you will fit into the future. You will also need to
research and cite information to back up your thoughts.
What will your industry look like in the next 20 years will
design be all interactive as in the movie Minority Report,
or will we still be consuming media in its current form?
What will entertainment look like? Will we still be using
game consoles or will there be a new medium? Will we
consume news via a portable device yet to be invented or
on our televisions? Will T.V. still be around? You all get to
be the futurists for this discussion, have fun with it!
We are in the business of communication and you should
be able to communicate intelligently in written form.
Spelling and grammar will be a significant part of your
grade on this discussion as well as your willingness to
share your knowledge with others.

Remember this is a discussion
post due on the FSO
Platform, but it is always a
good idea to create your post
and replies in a word doc first
so you have a record of it.
Sources to NOT Use:
Wikipedia.org - There will be no
research of a college level paper that
will allow Wikipedia as a source for
citation. The reason is that it is
unreliable at best.
