Grow you 'INNOVATION' mindmap

Class 1-09

So far, we have touched on the various aspects of innovation, eg. difference between innovation and invention, definition of innovation (what is and what is not), social innovation, habits of an innovative person etc.

It is time to start on your mindmap on "INNOVATION" and grow it along the way as we move into new topics. You may also include your own opinions and collected information as and when you deem suitable.

You will need to work on your mindmaps and submit them for grading by Week 8 or 9 of Term One.

What do you think is considered an 'unexpected success'? Have you encountered any 'unexpected success' personally? Or have you heard of anyone who had achieved that?
