Halfway Reflection Assignment 14A

Halfway Reflection
by Jenna Jaeger

1) I have read the assignments description on Monday so I knew I had enough time to complete the assignment before midnight Friday. I watch all the lectures in one sitting to make sure I retain all the information. I take notes while watching the lectures to keep myself engaged.

2) I felt like "giving up" when I had to conduct more interviews in a specific category. I interviewed anyone for the first two rounds of interviews, and I felt the stress of finding people high for that assignment. I got through it by talking to a friend and also brainstorming out loud. I think I am just as tenacious as before. This class is similar to one I took over the summer, so I am not surprised by anything yet.

3) I would tell the incoming class to make sure they give themselves the right kind of support.
I would tell the incoming class to jot things down when they think of something related to the class.
I would tell the incoming class to start an assignment with enough time to come back to it if need be.

    Hi Jenna,

    I like how you plan out your week when completing assignments. That is really smart to look at the assignments on Monday to get an understanding of how much time it will take. Furthermore, I also take plenty of notes while watching lectures. It is a great way to stay engaged and also get prepared for the quiz. I also like how you never gave up when you had to conduct more interviews. I had the same feeling, but I kept pushing to get it done.

    Hey Jenna! I have taken away a lot from what you have done so far to be successful in the class. I struggle mostly with the “cupcake “quizzes but this is because I do not take enough notes when watching the lectures. I believe that to be truly successful in this class I will have to do this. This class is very interesting and is the structure of the course is far different from any class I have taken.

    Jenna,

    I don't feel there is better way to describe the success in this class than how you did it. Definitely checking every Monday the next assignments and have an idea of what to write about is crucial. Also, taking notes is important because as for me kinesthetic learners need to be moving something in our body to retain the information better so that actually helps.

    I also try to read the assignments on Monday so I can plan out what I need to do for the assignment and have enough time to complete them by the time they are do. I also found that talking to friends helped me with the stress of interviews. I think your advice for the incoming class is really helpful!

Figuring out Buyer Behavior No. 1 Assignment 12A

Figuring out Buyer Behavior No. 1 by Jenna Jaeger My segment is businesswomen in Tampa. I conducted three phone interviews with my mom and two associates of hers. She works in a legal firm in downtown Tampa. All these women use whitening strips at home, and have experienced this need for something to hold them in place. After speaking to all three women, I deduced that they usually whiten their teeth once a week with the exception of right before an important event they are attending. They make sure to whiten their teeth before going to the dentist twice a year. They are conscious about their hygiene, and want a good report back from their dentist. They realize they have this problem during use of the whitening strips. They brought to my attention that they usually don't discuss this problem with their dentist, but rather their spouse while using the product. I asked if they were to ask the dentist, if they thought he/she would have anything to help with the problem. They re...

Testing the Hypothesis Assignment 7A

Testing the Hypothesis by Jenna Jaeger 1) I believe there is an opportunity for whitening strips. 2) People in the Unites States who use whitening strips have difficulty keeping the strips in place because of the material of the whitening strips. The who: People who use at home whitening strips The what: They are unable to keep the strips in the right place The why: Material of strips 3) Testing the hypothesis Testing the who: It could be individuals, dentists, and whitening brands. Testing the what: Are all whitening strips made of the same material? Are all brands offering the same type of whitening methods? Testing the why: Is it just the material? Do the strips move because of contact with the mouth? Is it the foaming and bubbles that are causing the shifting of the strips? 4) Interviews (what i didn't know before about the opportunity) Interview 1: They did not have trouble with keeping them in place. Interview 2: A certain technique is used to put ...
