This subject introduces the emerging trends in information technology. Students will explore the current and potential impacts of emerging and rapidly evolving technologies on different aspects of life and society.  

The subject is designed to guide students using a project-based learning approach. Students will have the opportunity to work in groups to discuss and share project ideas. They will be guided to identify problems, develop relevant proposals and present ideas through research, and real-world issues using a set of contemporary tools. In addition to tools and best practices, students explore the benefits and challenges of project planning involving technologies.  

Students are required to demonstrate what they learn as they journey through the course. During the project-based learning process, students also engage and develop communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and other essential 21st century skills that will help them meet the challenges of the world to come.
