About the course
Aim
The aim of this course is to provide a holistic perspective on models and methods to analyze and evaluate new technology and its alternatives as well as its economical and socio- technical effects. After the course, students should be well equipped to take part in discussions about how to evaluate and analyze the impact and possibilities of new IT ventures.
Content
This course takes you through theories and techniques to evaluate and analyze IT-ventures and/or innovative IT-based applications from a socio-technical perspective. Based on current trends, we focus on the importance, the impacts and the potential effects of existing technology. The ambitious is to show how evaluations models can be used to analyze the effects of new technology for users, enterprises, organizations and the society as a whole, as well as the incentives needed to realize the latent utility of technology. A project report is developed during this course. In the report students analyze and evaluate the economic, organizational as well as the technical aspects, effects and consequences of the implementation and use of state of the art IT-ventures.The participants’ projects, their literature searches, and the exchange of knowledge between the workgroups form a central part of this course. The role of the teachers is to give an overview of the areas involved, to give support and supervision to produce a god project, and to organize the course in a manner that support the students´ learning process.
