EAPP 11 for Senior High - Concept Paper.pdf

SHS Cathegory

**English for Academic and Professional Purposes (EAPP)** is a subject in the Senior High School curriculum in the Philippines. It focuses on developing students' communication skills for academic and professional contexts. One of the key topics in EAPP is writing a **concept paper**, which is an essential skill for presenting ideas, projects, or research proposals effectively.

A concept paper typically includes the following components:
1. **Introduction**: This section outlines the purpose and significance of the concept or project. It sets the stage by explaining the problem or need that the concept addresses.
2. **Objectives**: Clearly state the goals of the project or idea. These should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART).
3. **Methodology**: Describe the approach or methods that will be used to achieve the objectives. This includes the steps, resources, and timeline for implementation.
4. **Budget**: Provide an estimate of the financial resources required to execute the project. This section should be detailed and transparent.
5. **Conclusion**: Summarize the key points and emphasize the importance of the concept or project.

The purpose of a concept paper is to convince stakeholders, such as potential sponsors or funders, of the value and feasibility of the proposed idea. It serves as a preliminary document that can lead to the development of a full proposal or project plan.

If you're working on a 3000-word concept paper, you can expand each section with detailed explanations, examples, and supporting data. For instance:
- In the **Introduction**, you can provide background information, statistics, or case studies to highlight the relevance of the concept.
- In the **Methodology**, you can include a detailed timeline, roles and responsibilities, and potential challenges with solutions.

Types of Concept Papers
Concept papers can serve different purposes, so they may vary in structure depending on the context. Here are common types:

Research Concept Paper: Focuses on presenting a research problem, its significance, and a proposed methodology for addressing it. Often used in academic settings.

Project Concept Paper: Outlines a project or initiative, aiming to secure funding or support. Typically includes goals, timeline, and budget.

Advocacy Concept Paper: Highlights an issue or cause and proposes actions to address it. Often used in campaigns for social or environmental change.

Key Characteristics of a Good Concept Paper
To create a compelling concept paper, consider these features:

Clarity: The ideas should be well-organized and easy to understand. Use concise language and avoid jargon.

Relevance: The concept should address a specific need or problem that is important to the target audience.

Feasibility: The proposed methods and solutions should be practical and achievable within the given constraints.

Support Evidence: Incorporate facts, figures, and examples to make your argumen
