Writing and Submission Requirements Length: 1500 words, minimum Format: formal report (see instructions for details), APA style for citations and bibliography Submission: Submit to Canvas as ONE file in .doc or .docx format. Name the file/s using your first and last name + the name of the assignment (e.g.: AllieGatorProposal.docx) Assignment Instructions Your supervisor read through your report about apps that could be used and would like you to prepare a formal proposal for the board. For this assignment, you will propose the implementation of a particular app. It can be 1) an app that already exists, 2) an app that exists but needs some additional elements, or 3) an app that you imagine needs to be created. In professional settings, an internal proposal argues for adopting workplace innovation or amending current practice. Though the requirements can be described in different ways, the global structure of proposals is virtually always the same: Problem to Solution. You must first define a significant problem and then explain a feasible solution. Another very important requirement is that you establish the significance of the problem and the benefits associated with the solution. Completing a proposal means assessing current options, providing criteria for choosing a solution, making a specific recommendation, proposing an implementation schedule, and creating an evaluation plan that measures success of the project. The first part of that, you may recognize, is what you began in the research report. Here is some additional information to consider when choosing your app: 1) If your app already exists, follow the details of the assignment attached above. 2) If your app exists but needs modifications, include in your report exactly which modifications need to be made, how you expect them to look and work, and how you will request from the software manufacturer to make those modifications. This information is integrated into the details of the assignment as described in the attachment. 3) If an appropriate app does not exist, you will need to imagine one. You must include a mock-up drawing or visualization of the app and its screens. You can imagine that the organization′s IT team will develop it, or you can research software companies to make it and include your recommendation on that within the recommendation for the app itself. Suggestions for success: Write your executive summary last since it summarizes the whole project. To make different page numbers (some as Roman numerals and others as Arabic numerals), don′t choose automatic page numbering. Just open the header and format the page numbers manually. Use parts of your research report in the recommendation section, if applicable. It′s normal (and efficient) to reuse what has been written when you′re building onto previous information like this series of assignments. In some fields, it is necessary to acknowledge this (which is why the instructions include a statement to put in your paper if you do reuse parts of the report), while in others it is not necessary for documents produced in-house. This is one of those things you′ll have to learn once you′re in your profession. When in doubt, ask a professional or your supervisor; you don′t want to commit self-plagiarism.
