What is Innovation?

Innovations are divided into two broad categories: Evolutionary innovations (continuous or dynamic evolutionary innovation) that are brought about by many incremental advances in technology or processes and revolutionary innovations (also called discontinuous innovations) which are often disruptive and new.

Percentage of Broadband Households Connecting CE Devices to the Internet (2010 - 2013)

"Does your household connect any of the following CE products to the Internet to access online content/ applications?"

(Among All BB HHs)

Over one-half of all broadband HHs can

now access online content on a TV set

through a connected CE device. The most common device is a

game console—42% of broadband HHs have

an Internet-connected console.

The growth of connected-CE devices and their growing role in home entertainment presents opportunities

for technical support providers.

Home management equipment presents a third front in the advance of connected devices in

the home.

19

In addition to home entertainment devices,

a nascent number of consumers now use

connected equipment to manage their

home’s security and energy consumption.

Broadband, security, and utility providers

are keen to drive adoption of such

devices. Comcast, and Verizon, for example, now offer a range of

connected home management

equipment; Lowes recently launched a

line up of equipment and services, as well.

Adoption of Energy/Home Security Devices (Q1/13)(Among all BB HHs, n=2,500, ± 1.96%)

A majority of broadband HHs already contain an “emerging” device.

Even after computers,

tablets, e-readers,

smartphones, and home

networks are excluded, a

solid majority of broadband HHs own one

or more emerging

devices. Game consoles are

the most widely adopted

emerging device.

The Fifth Innovation Pillar

We need a fifth Pillar!

Technology is transforming schools and the home how do we bring the two together?

Learning

Health

Energy

Security

Entertainment

At school….

• Shared services across schools• Better use of buildings • A move to infrastructure free• Multi-Tenanted Buildings

• Application aware firewalls

• Intelligent and hierarchal filtering control

• Staff and pupil identity management

• Remote Learning • Adult education• Public WiFi

• Schools pay for what they use

• Village and town hub• Virtual Classrooms

leading to international learning

• Bring schools capacity to account

In the home...

• New devices• New communication

paths• BYOD

• Secure encrypted VPN to the home

• IL3 to the home• Home worker in a box

• Fastest UK Broadband• 4G roll out• TV services

• Assistive Technologies• Telemedicine • Tivo Apps• Walled Garden• Schools TV

“The expectation as to what can be achieved with technology is changing, the next generation of teachers, social workers, doctors, nurses all public sector workers will have grown up in a technical age and will have higher expectations on what technology allows them to do.”

Homework Focus

Set modem to only allow access to teacher approved websites during

homework time.

New Ideas

Mobile Prevention

Issue a school SIM card or mobile device that are deactivated or channelled

during school hours

Schoogle

A new search engine that restricts results to teacher approved websites,

during homework time access to other search

engines could be blocked.

Webits When a pupil goes to a teacher

recommended website, they receive a point. Points will be published real-time.

Pupils will be motivated to keep to relevant websites. Teacher could

publicise some websites, others could be hidden. More points

awarded for finding the hidden sites.

Schools IPTV

School TV Channel showing curriculum subjects, extra lessons and study guides

during exam periods

Learning Everywhere

A Platform to deliver education anywhereHome Schooling for children on long term

sickness leave, learning difficulties and exclusions

Gamification of learning

What do kids love?1) Collecting things

2) A new appLinking educational collectable cards that could be related to their form topic. We could create some collectable swappable cards with

Teacher input that the kids could take home as homework to learn with their parents. (Spelling or phonics cards are another option) This could be linked to an educational app that parents need to help their kids with. Keep it fun with different levels of competition for the kids.

New TrialGiving back TV Control to Parents!

Top Secret !

You are the experts, come and see us to talk about the art of the possible!

Our objective of the day is to create a learning mind map for the home.
