Discuss those factors within the external environment (sociocultural, technological, economic and political) that must be considered prior to the development of a board game

The objectives are that you must discuss those factors within the external environment (sociocultural, technological, economic and political) that must be considered prior to the development of a board game (e.g.) a sociocultural factor could be that families are playing more or less board games now, depending on the evidence that you find; a technological factor is that technology is developing at such a rapid rate and kids and young people are more interested in consoles and on line games. An economic factor could be that we have less money to spend now because of the global economic crisis – how does this affect the market for board games etc – these are the examples that I gave in lectures. You also need to also find evidence to support these points
