Modifying Education Health
Two research proposals 1(Modifying Education Health) and 2 (ICE orphans) show the differences target audience, depth of analysis topic, aesthetic value and methods of information dissemination Sample one is a word document while two is posted on a website-Wix.com. In this learning report, I state that research proposal two submitted via a website garners more audience in this age compared to a research word document research proposal. However, a typed word research proposal as in sample one wins in quality as it gives an in-depth analysis of the topic in general.

Quality of information
Sample 1 provides the reader with a chance to engage and imagine the tragedies of poor health outcomes by introducing the reader to a personal anecdote as a disease survivor. The author has enough room to explain why sample 1 matters for her and why the research will be necessary. Sample 2, although also seamlessly covering the proposal topics through a simple ‘click’, it fails by only giving a brief overview of ICE for each section. Further, it provides an in-depth analysis of the issue by even stating some of the limitations of its alternative solutions may present. This shows the honest nature of a researcher.
Audience Numbers and Easy Navigation of website
Sample 2 shows devotion and shows the promise to reach out to more people fighting for a common cause. For instance, apart from website use, it also uses other ICE social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, where it can target more volunteers and supporters. As the year 2020 has shown so far, technology is making dissemination of information easier while also bringing people together through social media. Sample 2 also has a donation page that asks for support from well-wishers which can either motivate demotivate the reader. Another desirable element in sample 2 is that it is easy to navigate the topics and sub-sections. The reader can also receive recent information from recent news postings or updates. Sample 2 also shows the aesthetic value which stems from the organization of topics and use of real-life pictures which sample 1 lack.
Key Learning
Although writing a research proposal via a website makes it easy to navigate for the reader, it also means that the author will miss writing down important details that might be what your reader needs to sign a partnership with the researcher. A good research proposal should compel and invite your reader as to why this research will be worth their time and resources and this require in-depth detailing of the issue at hand. Further, it should feel genuine. On the other hand, as it stands in the digital age, the more the support for a common cause, the more it is likely to succeed. This is why a proposal via the website with adequate feedback, contact and news sharing options is likely to succeed.
Writing a research proposal via a word document and via a website sees that each media has its fair share of advantages and merits. However, to amass the benefits of both, it is essential that the researcher use both methods. After all, an investor supporting research would like to know all the intricacies of whatever project they are injecting their time and resources in.
