they know the story of the creators and
businesses behind names like Netflix,
Google, YouTube & Facebook?

Well-written study questions encourage readers to return to the text and
skim for relevant passages...Some questions call upon students to conduct
Internet research or analyze different business models. These texts provide a
realistic view of how adults learn and grow in the working world, learning
from their mistakes. Students will understand what an innovator or entre-
preneur is and how personal challenges—such as Twitter founder Jack
Dorsey’s speech impediment—can lead to new forms of communication.
...An inspiring series.
