Innovation is defined as "A new idea, device or method; the act or process of introducing new ideas, devices, or methods". How would a college student define innovation? Myself would define it as a way to come up with new ideas and putting them into play. Coming up with new ideas yourself is a great thing for you to do and it can be very useful to you.

There are many ways that a student could successfully use innovation in their schoolwork. For one, they can think of new methods of studying or working. They can use their ideas to then better their schoolwork. Everyone has different ideas, and everyone is trying to make their ideas better than the original in today’s day. In an article we read this week called “32 Innovations That Will Change Your Tomorrow”, it showed many different ideas that people had that will change the way we live once they are introduced. Examples of the innovations included electric clothes, the mind reading shopping cart, and clean hair no hands, which cleans your hair completely for you. The innovations were very interesting to read and gave you a lot of thought of what could come into play in the future!
