Merriam – Webster defined concept as “something conceived in the mind. It can be an abstract or
generic idea generalized from particular instance (e.g the basic concepts of psychology, the concept
of gravity).”These are the ways on how to elucidate the concepts:Definition, Explication and
Clarification.
1. Definition This allows the giving or explaining the meaning of an abstract term or concept.
A. Informal definition – also known as parenthetical definition or in – text definition; we use an
informal definition by using a synonym, a phrase a clause and separated through a dash a
colon, comma. Example: discipline-control, regulation, direction, order
B. Formal definition - also called as one – sentence logical definition or Aristotelian definition.
This definition follows the formula: Term/species = Genus/group or class where such item
belongs + Differentia to indicate its difference from other members belonging to that class
C. Extended, expanded or amplified definition – this refers to the other different ways on how
to define words aside from informal and formal.
D. Combined definition – it defines the word by introducing the term in a sentence definition
that exactly specifies its genus or class and its function or purpose. It is further extends its
meaning through the various methods of definition presented above
2. Explication/Explanation - When explicating, you are laying what the concept is. Once the
definition is made, then you can explain the process. This means that you outline the steps in
details--the steps, including the materials needed. Think of it like a recipe. You need the
ingredients, the measurements as well as the steps that are needed to make the perfect dish.
In other words, explication is detailed and intense explanation.
3. Clarification - involves offering back to the speaker the essential meaning, as understood by
the listener, of what they have just said. Thereby checking that the listener's understanding is
correct and resolving any areas of confusion or misunderstanding.
Identify the type of concept elucidation is being presented. Write DEFINE for definition,
EXPLAIN for explicate/explanation and CLARIFY for clarification.
__________1. Identified through the formula term/word = genus + species
__________2. Done to present the process
__________3. Best described as intense and detailed
__________4. If there are doubts, this must be done
__________5. Checking for understanding is one of its primary purpose
__________6. Has a lot of ways on how to be written
__________7. Requires non-judgmental question
__________8. A dictionary can be used
__________9. This completes the elucidation of concepts as it provides a summary
__________10.Asking for repetition is a strategy that can be used when performing this

Identify the type of definition presented whether :FORMAL INFORMALEXTENDED or

COMBINED
____________1. May appear as an in – text definition
____________2. Word derivation or etymology gives the origin of the term
____________3. Starts with the genus/class and extends to various forms of definition
____________4. Derived from Aristotelian logical definition
____________5. This must not be defined using the circular definition
____________6. Type of definition which uses examples
____________7. Modem is a device that changes the form of data so that another media can
transmit them.
____________8. Radar – an acronym for radio detection and range; a
determining factor in anti –aircraft system
____________9. Technology is an English term coming from these three words: technikos
(Greek); technicus (Latin); and technique (French). All these three foreign words mean technical
that refers to a particular skill .

Activity Title : Concept Paper
Learning Target : Identify the general parts of a concept paper
Reference(s) : SLM English 11 Module 4( Buan,2020), MELC
LAS Writer : Ivan John L. Daro

When we talked about the parts of a concept paper, we are referring to different disciplines which
may vary depending on the need of the elucidation of a concept. As such, let us be guided with the
following:
A concept paper has five (5) parts:
I. Introduction – in this part, the following things are being done:
a. Highlights the applicant’s vision and mission and how it aligns with the funder’s or sponsor’s
b. Explains why the sponsor should accept and fund the project
c. May also introduce the applicant’s partners in accomplishing the proposed project
II. Project Description
a. Includes goals, objective and overview of the methodology
b. Based on empirical evidence, reasonable cost and complexity; time boundedness
c. Stresses out a plan to do; approach to be utilized and benefits and impacts to achieve
III. Purpose / Rationale
a. Like a lit review = may provide written studies about the topic
b. gap to be filled; problems to be addressed in the realization of the project
c. May also be merged with the introduction as it may alsohighlight the significance of the project
IV. Support / Budget
a. Provides an outline of the main budget categories
b. Bottom line amount which has the explanation on how the budget will be spent or allocated
V. Contact Information
a. Important as this will be the contact to address should the funder agree with the proposed project

This pandemic has brought us to experience the new normal in education. If you are to present an
idea/activities or programs that may help students learn during this time, present it using the generic
concept paper format. Write your answer on a whole sheet of paper.

1. Academic Research concept papers.

This type of concept paper is the most common type and the one most people are familiar with.
Concept papers for academic research are used by students to provide an outline for their
prospective research topics.These concept papers are used to help students flesh out all the
information and ideas related to their topic so that they may arrive at a more specific research
hypothesis.
2. Advertising concept papers.
Advertising concept papers are usually written by the creative and concept teams in advertising and
marketing agencies.Through a concept paper, the foundation or theme for an advertising campaign or
strategy is formed. The concept paper can also serve as a bulletin board for ideas that the creative
and concept teams can add to or develop. This type of concept paper usually discusses who the
target audience of the campaign is, what approach of the campaign will be, how the campaign will be
implemented, and the projected benefits and impact of the campaign to the company’s sales,
consumer base, and other aspects of the company.
3.Research grant concept papers.
This type of concept paper is most common in the academe and business world. Alongside proving
why your research project should be conducted, a research grant concept paper must also appeal to
the company or funding agency on why they should be granted funds.
The paper should indicate a proposed timeline and budget for the entire project. It should also be able
to persuade the company or funding agency on the benefits of your research project– whether it be
an increase in sales or productivity or for the benefit of the general public.
 Getting started on your concept paper.
1. Find a research topic you are interested in.
2. Think of research questions that you want to answer in your project
3. Formulate your research hypothesis.
4. Plan out how you will achieve, analyze, and present your data.

1. Title
2. Introduction
3. Purpose of the study
4. Preliminary Literature review
5. Objectives of the study
6. Reseach questions and hypotheses
7. Proposed Methodology
8. Proposed Research Timeline
9. References
