Week 14 Reflection: The Last Word

This was the most challenging semester that I have experienced during my studies, and taking ENG 301 added more workload to my degree planner. In most scenarios, authentic writing required a quiet place and peace of mind. After work, I had to help my wife with children’s needs, find a moment to relax, then study until late hours. I was frustrated several times. There was a moment that I felt like quitting but through prayers and my family’s support, I managed to reach the last week after a lot of effort.

My love for reading books, articles on the internet, and writing down my thoughts softened my stress of writing. In addition, this course has sharpened my ability to give a clear meaning of my feelings and thoughts in my writing. The other advantage I felt from this course this semester was the fact that I was also registered for Business Law (BUS 375). The Business Law requires me to submit a “legal brief” every week; therefore, writing skill was a necessity. The skill received from this class forged my confidence. I am more comfortable and confident today when presenting a topic to people in person at work, church, or community. The fear of being judged is no longer part of my character since I understand the essence of an argument.

            This course has been blessed me a lot. I know the Lord has a plan for me regarding this new skill of research and writing. Practically speaking, I was able to create an online survey and share it with our training center. 43 learners were able to provide me with data that was easy to interpret in order to prepare a technical report based on the gathered result. I know that I am not yet perfect but I am confident that I can now write so many drafts until I reach the final work.

Parents need to trust their kids, lead with example, and create a very good & forgiving environment. As part of my study from Marriage and Family: The Quest for Intimacy and other readings, I have received knowledge about the four Parenting Styles: Authoritarian, Authoritative, Permissive, and Uninvolved. I will use two experiences I have had with parents in order to address some of the parenting styles.             Keywords: a utocratic parenting, active parenting, missed opport...

2b Design: A creative social business in Lebanon

2b Design: A creative social business in Lebanon Introduction After accumulating enough managerial experience as an entrepreneur, Raja Moubarak and his wife Benedicte de Blavous moved to Lebanon in 2003 and three years later decided to create a social business named 2b Design which specialized in transforming architectural salvage into works of art. 2b Design has a clear mission: “restoring the unseen beauty of the broken” which will focus on maintaining disappearing artwork, buildings, and tradition through artistic creations and employing marginalized individuals especially the unemployable along with the disabled. This mission is accomplished by gathering and utilizing wrought iron, decorative wood, and other elements found in scrapyards and old Lebanese homes thus preserving a heritage that was ever more in danger of disappearing while touching and improving the lives of the broken (people whose socio-economic status or disabilities hindered them from leading a decent life). ...

Fabrice Tshiyoyi Banyingela Professor Brittany James BUS 374 Social Innovation 21 July 2021 Reflection: Final It was a beautiful decision to embark on this journey and learn some of the important concepts of Social Innovation. The coursework was a mix of watching video tutorials about successful entrepreneurs and reading articles, case studies, and more interestingly an inspired book “How to change the world.” I feel empowered as an aspiring entrepreneur to create real solutions for real people.
