This is the introduction to your research project. You need to write 2 paragraphs (minimum).
Paragraph 1 should include stating the exact problem that you are trying to solve. You would write 4 or 5 sentences discussing the relevance of the project (saying why we are doing this project and why it is important). State how you will solve the problem. Say who your "client" is.
Paragraph 2 should say how your project connects to an area of interaction.

EXAMPLE:
Developing a business or organisation can be challenging. The problem I am trying to solve in CT class this term is, “How can I extend an introduction?” In other words, “How can I make people remember me or my business/organisation after meeting them?” This project is relevant because in the future most of us will be in a position to advertise a business or organisation. One relatively inexpensive way to to this is through the creation and use of a business card. Currently I am involved in a Community and Service group here at school called, “Fundacão do Seculo”. It would be a good idea to have a card to advertise this group and to leave our contact information with others. I will solve this problem by creating a business card. The historical figure that I will highlight is William Shakespeare. My target audience are my peers in Computer Technology class and the general public.

My project connects to Human Ingenuity. Human Ingenuity asks the questions: Why and how do we create? What are the consequences? This is particularly appropriate in this situation because I will use my creativity to create a business card. I will be creative when I research my customer. I will be creative when I actually create the card. Business cards all have consequences. We distribute them as an advertising tool but it doesn’t stop there. The card must contain enough information that real contact can be made later.
Remember this would be a basic, scaled-down acceptable version that hit all the benchmarks.
