RUBRIC-BASED GRADING. This is the grading rubric for the Capsule Research Proposal. This rubric
is focused mainly on the Basic Programming Approach. Emphasize relevant literature, methodologies, and
@ndings related to the study. The objective is to comprehensively understand the application of
programming in the @eld of Electrical Engineering and its implications.

YOUR TASK:

1. As a starting point, you are required to submit a Capsule Proposal following the
prescribed format.
2. The Capsule proposal shall highlight the need, solution, differentiation, and benefits of
the proposal.
3. Major activities involved in the proposal as well as the expected outputs should be
briefly discussed.
4. Be generous in your citations because it lends credence to your work. You should
specifically cite statements of facts to support your arguments. Use APA citation style.

Working Title:

Rationale and Significance:

• State the research problem and significance of the project to the current needs of
the industry/field/country.
o The proposal should identify and discuss the specific needs/problems to be
addressed.
o The proponent should have a clear understanding of the needs/problems.
o Is it just a perceived need or an observed need based on consultations?
o Do needs link to business opportunities?
o Target market or beneficiaries (size, growth, players, segments)?
• The research must also include compelling solutions.
o What is the proposed solution?
o Would it satisfy important needs?
o How would it satisfy the needs?
o Could it solve the entire problem, or would it address a critical part?
o What are the limitations?
o Present the solution in a form that could be visualized graphics, mock-ups,
and frameworks.
• Technologies from the research proposal must be differentiated from the
current/available technologies.
o Compared with competitive or substitute solutions/technology, what is the
differentiation of what is being proposed?
o What are its advantages?
o Its Unique features?
o Can this differentiation create greater value than that of existing?
o Can it reduce cost? Increase efficiency, provide better performance?
o Can it result in special skills or exceptional services?
o Can it provide new information?
o Can it be a technology or an invention comprising of new designs,
approaches; and use of new materials?
o Can they be protected or protectable by patents, copyrights, and
trademarks?
 • Benefits from the research proposal must also be taken into consideration.
o What are the benefits that can be perceived/received after using the
solution?
o Quantify the benefits if possible.
o What would be its impact on the target market/beneficiaries?

Major Activities
• Enumerate the components/major activities of the project and its brief description.

Expected Output
• Indicate the specific products, processes, or services that the project is expected to
produce and how these can be used; quantify when possible.

Note: Write-ups must be supported with appropriate literature and proper citations. Limit to
2-3 pages only.
