Continue working on Assignment 5

Today Assignment 5 was introduced and we discussed the assignment expectations and appropriate resources.

We looked at 2 examples of how Support Ecosystems help social ventures flourish. JPaul completed Case Study 12.2 in class and completed a "challenge" organizational chart.

Today we read Ch. 12 and discussed ways to apply the 'Ecosystem' concept to Social Entrepreneurship. JP completed Case Study 12.1 and answered questions from the textbook.

We began reading Ch. 12 on the Social Entrepreneurship Support Ecosystem and discussed real world examples.

We reviewed the text and last reading assignment then JPaul completed an in-class Quiz over Ch. 11. He did very well!

Today we read the rest of Ch. 11 and discussed "Tragedy of the Commons" and how we see it in today's world.

J.Paul was tasked with selecting a social problem and writing a 1-2 page explanation of how it arose and what the US might be like without it. He was to include any organizations in the public or private sector that are trying to solve the problem. J.Paul was permitted to use his textbook or any online resources, but he was asked to cite them. When finished, he was asked to submit his assignment via Teams. J.Paul worked independently and did not request any assistance, although it was offered.

Today, JP continued working on Case Study 11.1 in the textbook and we discussed the solutions he came up with.
