I learned that there are different
ways to persuade the reader, how
to organize the message and
what tone to use.
I read the module and we had a
test on it.
Even if you don’t have to write a
persuasive message you're going
to have to convince someone of
something this should help.

I always thought for a proposal
you needed to always find all your
information first, you can start it
with just one-fourth of the
research.
I read the module and then we had
a test.
I’m starting a new job and my boss
already told me she will have me
help and eventually write
proposals on my own.
As mentioned above I will be
putting what I learned into
practice and I’m sure I’ll learn
other ways to write them.

I learned more than I already knew
about social media, for example
business school need to tech
students skills not only for writing
papers, but blogs and Facebook or
twitter posts.
Reading the content in week 11.
A lot of businesses are using social
to not only promote but to stay in
touch with customers. Knowing
how to use it correctly would be
beneficial.
One of my friends and I have talked
about starting a fashion blog or
instagram, I’m sure this information
will help.
