Blog Entries for Week-2 – How To Approach Them

As you’ll have discovered by looking at the description for Week-2, your topic is to look into the future and address what you expect to find, with each group assigned a different technical area.  I suggest that you keep at least the following in mind when performing your research and preparing your blog post.

• Define what you mean by “future” – I suggest 3-10 years, but will accept other periods if you are clear in your definition.
• Be explicit in what implications you think that future will have for the building industry.
• Be sure to include your sources so others can follow what you’ve found.
• Indicate your evaluation of the credibility of the source(s) and thus the prediction.
• BTW – I’m perhaps in a minority in finding Wikipedia often a good starting point for explorations of this sort.  The credibility of the articles there varies greatly, but often they’re quite plausible.
