TOP REVIEWS FROM SOCIAL BUSINESS MODEL AND PLANNING FOR SOCIAL INNOVATION
Practical oriented course. I really enjoyed every bit of it. Already, I am equipped to go out there and execute my project.
Already finishing the course, only one peer left to review . Also Seeking anybody to review my video pitch .in week one,I did social entrepreneurship and finished.
I think that the grading for the courses can be a combination of peer review and some quizzes instead of only peer reviewing.
