Respond to the two prompts below in the corresponding blanks.

1. TCT provides a sample proposal structure on page 592. As the book points out, this is not a formula, but a workable model. It's likely that we will not follow this exact structure in our group proposals; we may not include all of the listed sections, and we may add some different elements. Please discuss (in approximately a paragraph) a structure for your group's Service Learning Project Proposal that you think might be effective and explain why.
   
   
2. Essentially, proposals are documents that present a prospective action to decision makers. Proposals point out the advantages of taking a particular action and the disadvantages of not doing so. We have all tried to influence decision makers at some point. For example, as children we often attempt to demonstrate to our parents the advantage of taking a particular action (such as buying us something we want). Think of a specific time you have made a formal or informal proposal. What was the situation? What did you do? What was the outcome?
