GYBI Assignment 5.1

A provision for amending the assignment after submission should be given

Participants should be given time to review and reflect on their initial submissions before submitting

save and return later function would be a good idea

Selection of type of business not active. Instructions on how to save the form not clear. Entrepreneurs should be encouraged to save

all activity forms in one folder for easy of access

Forum

A statement to encourage participant to ask question would be important at this stage.

Entrepreneurs should also be encourage to test their ideas to see what other business people think about them

End of course evaluationQuestion 1 requires reframing

◦ Do you think that this course has covered all the topics needed to generate a business idea? This will connect well the choice of answers given.

Use of the GYB needs to corrected to GYBI. Some questions might require a statement

to support the reason for selecting the response. ◦ “what do you think about the length of the

course.” Last question has a spelling mistake and is

a bit vague.

Overall feelingSome questions we’re too broad

and need to be more specific and parameters added.

In the end, the satisfaction of participants might be affected by external factors outside of the platform e.g. internet connectivity, experience generating the idea e.t.c.
