Some suggestions for managing your semester -
Here are some suggestions for successfullly managing your assessment

//1) Create a "business" workbook using large two or three ringed binder & dividers// Some headings might include Marketing, Product Pricing, Legal & Administration, Record-keeping & Accounting Reports, Research Material, Extra Resources

//2) Use free social media tools// Use [|deli.cio.us] to organise your resources, get a free [|Google] account which includes gmail, blogs, calendar & importantly Google Reader (this allows you to get all your information from website & blogs into the one organised spot)

//3) Adopt an Entrepreneurial Gaze// "An Entrepreneurial Gaze" is not something that just comes naturally to everyone, in fact, for many of you, it will take a lot of hard work. Some suggestions include - start looking at the businesses around you (big & small), think about how they're operating, are they working effectively. If you're a consumer, are you getting value for money, what would you do better? Your intention is to become aware of enterprise around you and think about where you and your business idea might fit in.
