Week 5 Reading Reflection

1.What was the biggest surprise for you in the reading? In other words, what did you read that stood out the most as different from your expectations? The process for obtaining a patent was the most surprising to me. I thought the process was relatively simple and to see all the minute details such as tentative classification, security screening and multiple examinations showed that this process is anything but simple.

2. Identify at least one part of the reading that was confusing to you.
 Forms of intellectual property chart was a little confusing to understand in certain sections such as the explanation of trade dresses. There really was no explanation of what certain terminology was and how it directly correlated to intellectual property.

3.If you were able to ask two questions to the author, what would you ask? Why?
 Is there a simplified was to explain patents and the difference in intellectual property. Do you believe this format is the best way to communicate these ideas to student who are new to this conversation.
 

4.Was there anything you think the author was wrong about? Where do you disagree with what she or he said? How?
I wouldn't exactly consider multiple expenses and the ability to organize these expenses are a disadvantage of forming a corporation. As long as there are clear cut policies in place and a team to help keep this efficient. The form of a corporate should run just as efficient as any other business structure.
