This document outlines the requirements for a social innovation project assigned as part of a Science, Technology and Society course. Students must identify a problem within a specific community, propose an innovative IT-based solution, and present their proposal in a discussion paper and video presentation. The project aims to apply course learnings and suggest creative ways that technology can address real-world issues. Students will be evaluated based on the originality and applicability of their proposed solution, as well as the quality of the video and paper presentation.
