Testing the Hypothesis, Part 2


  1. Opportunity: lack of international food in Gainesville, FL. There are a lot of international people living in Gainesville, but still, it is really hard to find food from another country. 
  2. Interviews
    1. Lucas, University of Florida: He said that he did not know about the need, he is from America, so he does not really eat international food. 
    2. Andrew, University of Florida: He said that he does like some international food, but he does not have the need to eat it, so he does not have a problem with it. He also does not think that it is important to have international food here. 
    3. Joseph, University of Florida: He has the same need, but he has a car, so every time that he wants to eat different food, he drives wherever they have it.
    4. Chris, University of Florida: He said that he also did not realize that there are not many international restaurants in Gainesville, FL. He does not eat international food because his favorite food is burgers, so he does not have the same need.
    5. Felipe, University of Florida: He said that he really likes food from other countries, but he does not eat that much, and even if he wants to eat international food, he can drive to the other cities where he can find. 
  3. Who: All the people that I interviewed were from the University of Florida. Many of them do not have the same need, or even if they do, they can drive. So the difference between this interview and the other one is that this one people had cars, and they did not have a problem to drive to another city to eat international food. 
  4. What: This is need is different based on people with or without a car. 
  5. Why: having a car is the biggest factor. 
  6. Inside the boundary:
    1. Who: College students, and people with no car.
    2. What: international people should be able to find international restaurants in Gainesville, Fl. 
    3. Why: Students do not have cars or time to drive to another city. 
  7. Outside the boundary: 
    1. Who: College students, and people with a car.
    2. What: People who do not mind driving to another city to eat international food.
    3. Why: Only people with cars can find international restaurants.

Reading Reflection No. 2

Mindset by Carol S. Dweck 1) What was the general theme or argument of the book? Researching about a belief about our midset. 2) How did the book, in your opinion, connect with and enhance what you are learning in ENT 3003? I think that it connects with having a positive mindset and believing in yourself when doing anything in your life. 3) If you had to design an exercise for this class, based on the book you read, what would that exercise involve? Design a project for the business idea that we had. 4) What was your biggest surprise or 'aha' moment when reading the book? In other words, what did you learn that differed most from your expectations? I think that was interesting when it said that our mindset controls what we are on our day-to-day.

Reading Reflection No. 3

What was the general theme or argument of the book?  Daniel Kahneman's "Thinking, Quick and Slow"  The general point around this book is that you have in mind two mechanisms that continuously battle for decision power.  How did the book, in your opinion, connect with and enhance what you are learning in ENT 3003? This book helped me more financially when learning about the two main mechanisms that conflict with my decision making.  If you had to design an exercise for this class, based on the book you read, what would that exercise involve? The exercise would have many problems that students would have to solve thinking fast. What was your biggest surprise or aha moment when reading the book? In other words, what did you learn that differed most from your expectations? Just learning to not overthink too much.

An unmet need that I found was the lack of international food in Gainesville, Florida. Gainesville is a college town where a lot of international people come to study or even just to leave there, but unfortunately, Gainesville does not provide them with food from their country. Gainesville also does not have anywhere where they can buy food to cook. There is not a specific type of customer. The customers will be from all over the world, so I cannot imagine only one type. What I have in common with the customers is that I am from another country and I live in Gainesville, I have the same need.
