Assignment & brand

The starting point.

Identify examples of innovation and explain the distinction between radical and incremental change. This one-page response uses the automobile, Ford’s Model T and electric vehicles as examples within a mass-communication course.

Insight & approach

The thought behind it.

The paper’s central argument separates a product’s technology from its underlying purpose: an electric car changes how a vehicle is powered while retaining its transport function. This is Anton’s classroom interpretation, not a finding from original empirical research.

Concept & execution

How it takes shape.

A compact written comparison moves from the early automobile to mass production and then electric vehicles. The original page is shown intact; historical market statements and wording remain part of the dated assignment rather than current claims.
