Grant writing can be tedious and time consuming yet, very resourceful and rewarding. In addition, each funding source and grant application can be very different.

After watching module 1 videos and completing all assigned readings, respond to the following:

Compare and contrast what you have learned. What did you already know and what was new to you? How much does grant writing interest you? What component of grant writing do you think will be easiest for you? What component will be most difficult?

Explain your reflection thoroughly and cite your sources where appropriate. Include in your discussion a clear linkage to at least the following learning objectives: Managing the grant process (LO2) and an understanding of basic grant writing and general writing tips.

Your initial discussion posts should be at least 250 words. You will also need to respond to at least two of your classmate’s posts.

Also, make sure your responses are substantial and consist of at least 100 words in order to receive full credit.
