The grading criterion for this activity is full completion of the grant application based on the funder's requirements/guidelines.Generate an idea related to your technology plan for which you could write a grant requesting funding. Explore the Web and any other resources you find to locate organizations that offer grants to fund ideas like yours. Locate the organization’s Request for Proposals (RFP); the RFP is the grant application. Some organizations may use different titles, so keep in mind that you are looking for the application required. Download and review the document. Follow the instructions presented therein, and draft a grant proposal per those instructions.Some RFPs (or applications) may be templates where you, literally, fill in the blanks and respond to prompts. Others may simply present guidelines, and you draft an application "from scratch." Some may require you to upload, email, or snail mail a document; others may require that you complete an online form. If an online form is required, complete the form then create a PDF of the entire form to submit, or recreate the form in Microsoft Word then submit that recreated document. Whatever the format, your submission must include the RFP requirements so that your responses may be compared to the requirements. Use whatever means you feel are appropriate to include the requirements with your submission.
