You need to pick a real problem or opportunity in digital technology, ask specific questions about it, and research what already exists. Then you analyse what you've found, come up with a clear solution or outcome (like an app, system, or digital tool), and explain what could go wrong and how you'd prevent that. Finally, you write up everything you discovered and how your idea answers your original question.
