The methodology section is one of the core components of the grant. This section is concerned with addressing the question: \u201cHow will you carry out the project?\u201d (Gitlin & Lyons, 2014, p. 92). For example, if your proposal is for a nonprofit-related project, you might identify the population served or indicate who will receive services. Depending on the grant type, you may also include the research sample and associated inclusion criteria. A research proposal may also include the research design strategy, assumptions, validity, reliability, statistical analysis, timeline, and evaluation plans. Finally, in this section you may address human resources requirements and materials or supplies needed to complete the project.In recent years, evaluation plans have become increasingly important to prospective funders. Competition for grants is intense, and funders must feel confident that money will be well spent and that projects can be appropriately evaluated. This is an important consideration for the grant seeker as well. Your organization will also want to be assured that the time and effort put into a project proves that the objectives are met and if not, why.For this Assignment:Review the Final Project Guidelines provided in this \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0module\u2019s Learning Resources.Carefully review your Gitlin & Lyons text, the \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0University of Wisconsin-Extension resource, and the Community Tool Box \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0resource as well as other Learning Resources that focus on methodology and \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0evaluation.
