Assignment:

A Professor at UC Davis believes that voting with our dollars is a good start, so he created the Better World Shopper project, which includes a free app for your phone, a website, and a book providing information on various companies. This allows consumers to have some basic information about the behavior of companies they buy products and services from.

Read the following webpage and complete the 3 parts of this assignment below using the webpage or by downloading the free app:

1. If the creator of this project asked for your help with promoting the free app and getting as many people as possible to start using it, how would you accomplish that? Explain your approach.

2. Complete the following exercise on the website: by clicking on the "Search Companies" button or by using the free app on your phone.

a. In the "Category" box look up the "Banks" category, and list 3 banks or credit unions and their grades.

b. Look up the "Insurance Companies" category and list 3 companies and their grades.

c. Look up the "Online" category and list 3 companies and their grades.

d. Look up 3 more companies of your choice in any category, list them and their grades.

Make sure your responses are clearly labeled 1,2a,2b,2c,2d, just as the questions are listed above. As always, responses must meet the minimum word count, which does not include headings and re-stated questions.
