Serious Games	Data Analytics	Public Service Mutuals
Serious games, which include case competitions, simulations, board games like Policy Horizon’s new game “Impact” and many other examples, are a great way to get people to learn and collaborate. The ‘serious’ in the title signals that these games aren’t just for fun, but provide users and organizations with a chance to practice skills and build relationships.	Data Analytics uses complex algorithms to analyze structured and unstructured data to provide details on the past, predict the future, and understand outcomes before they happen.	Public Service Mutual is shorthand for a variety of initiatives, based on mutual or cooperative governance that in whole or in part delivers public services and in which employee or member control plays a significant role in their operation. Well-designed mutualization can transform the delivery of public services and deliver substantial benefits to public service stakeholders.
Big Data	Citizen Science	Foresight
Big data generally refers to datasets so large and complex they create significant challenges for traditional data management and analysis tools in practical timeframes. Often it refers to the use of predictive analytics or other advanced methods to extract value from data. These datasets exist because of the ever-increasing number and power of electronic devices, and their use for new roles.	Citizen science is a research technique that utilizes local citizens as resources to gather information for scientists in a large research project. Citizen Scientists do not necessarily have any scientific background, but they volunteer their time to observe, record and report data for scientists. Typically, volunteers do not analyze data or write scientific papers, but they are essential to gathering the information on which studies are based.	Foresight is a process of anticipating and managing change. Foresight methods are used for strategic policy and planning to systematically imagine plausible futures based on current data, trends and policies. The most common foresight approach is scenario planning. Scenarios are credible, challenging stories that transform strategically important knowledge into fresh perspectives about a range of plausible futures.
