Journal 2

Part 1

The roles and tasks for the proposal will mainly be to guide us on how to form a hiring company to assist international students find jobs in the U.S. The proposal will include details pertaining to how overcome challenges and barriers to foreigners finding jobs in the country, including skill, lingual, cultural, and time differences. The three of us—i.e. Zhao Wang, Xinnan Zhang, and Weixiang Guo—will collaborate in preparing the proposal. We will jointly brainstorm and think through the proposal, but Guo will be responsible for recording all the decisions we make regarding the writing of the proposal. Wang will take the responsibility of compiling the decisions recorded by Guo, and writing a comprehensive proposal in the correct format. On the other hand, Zhang’s role will be to confirm that we have written the proposal correctly and upload it as instructed. As a group, we will set dates. When we meet, the two of us will leave the meeting after we confirm that Guo has written all the points. In the second meeting, the two—Guo and Zhang—will read through my compilation to make sure I have included all the decisions. We will in turn check the uploaded file to ensure Zhang has uploaded the corrected file and by an agreed time. These actions will be to ensure we hold each other accountable in writing the proposal.

Part 2

Based on Chapter 4, the role of proposals is to define problems and to put forth suggested solutions with the intension of persuading readers to support the implementation of the action plans. The proposal also shows the impact the suggested solutions will have on the community or on the affected individuals and that the solutions will be implementable. What is more, a proposal should be able to convince the reader to take actions, i.e. to fund finding the suggested solutions, implementing the solutions, and changing policies to accommodate the solutions. There are many types of proposals, including public policy proposals, proposals for improved or new services, and research proposals. Of these, since we want to find a solution to finding jobs for foreign students, proposals for improved services will be the applicable type of proposal. This type will be ideal because we will be finding solutions to an existing problem with existing solutions, but we will still pursue better solutions.

Part 3

As already stated, my role in writing the proposal will be to take the points on which we would have agreed and compile them into a proposal. A proposal usually has many parts, including problem definition, the required resources, and more importantly, the proposed solutions. Therefore, my responsibility will be to put together all these parts and ensuring the write up assumes the format of a convincing proposal. I have been a secretary for different groups since high school. I have a background for writing minutes in brief and comprehensively. I have also learned a lot concerning writing different proposals. I have a firer command of the English language, which is required for writing this proposal. This background will enhance my role in the project. One of the likely challenges I would encounter is finding common time in which I will get the information to compile. Each of the members has different time requirements, most of which may not necessarily be predictable. English not being my first language may also pose a challenge at some point, but I will still find my way through. I will use the internet academic sources to learn more on how to write proposals, including what to include and how to include it in the proposals. My team members will also be very resourceful in reviewing the proposal and ensuring it is in good shape before we submit it. If in double, my instructor will be a great resource because I am ready to inquire.
