Assignment Description:
I. Each project will have an ‘executive summary.’ This will be a 1-2 page document that:
- concisely outlines the project
- details the process through which the project idea emerged
- lists the outcomes or products developed by the group
- lists the participants and their roles or responsibilities
- includes short statements of justification (why) and logistics (how) for the project
II. Each project will consist of one of the following:
A. a grant proposal
- targeted at an actual funding agency
- adhering to current guidelines (even if a deadline has passed)
- containing all required elements for review by the granting agency (though the proposal does not need to be submitted to the agency)
B. a project plan
- detailing how the project will be realized
- fully budgeted
- outlining a planning timeline
- specifying a detailed schedule for a central “event” or undertaking
III. Each project will also consist of one of the following:
A. publicity or marketing collateral: design drafts (what) as well as a plan (where/how)
- possible components for the collateral: radio PSA scripts; Facebook event mock-up, social media strategy, print materials (brochure, poster, flyer, etc)
B. design framework for a significant or primary web presence: web page (or sub-page within a larger organization or entity)
C. sample of detailed “modules” of programming content: eg. curriculum plan for a workshop or lesson series; stage plans for an event in a concert series; engagement strategy for a community-planned exhibition
- this element is best thought of as a fully-fleshed out component that might not fit in a grant proposal or overall project plan; more detailed and granular, and an opportunity to illustrate specifics of the project
