GCU NRS-493 Topic 6 Capstone Change Project Implementation Plan II
In this topic, students will synthesize discovered evidence-based research that supports the intervention for the capstone project change proposal into a literature review. The strategic plan will be reviewed to determine what resources would be required if the intervention were to be implemented. NRS-493 Topic 6 Capstone Change Project Implementation Plan II
Objectives:
- Create a list of resources from the evaluation of your strategic plan that would be needed to implement the change proposal.
- Synthesize discovered evidence-based research that supports the capstone project change proposal.
- Integrate reflective practice into the practicum reflective journal.
- Demonstrate interprofessional collaboration during the creation of the capstone project change proposal.

Literature Review
While the implementation plan prepares students to apply their research to the problem or issue they have identified for their capstone project change proposal, the literature review enables students to map out and move into the active planning and development stages of the project.
A literature review analyzes how current research supports the PICOT, as well as identifies what is known and what is not known in the evidence. Students will use the information from the earlier PICOT Question Paper and Literature Evaluation Table assignments to develop a 750-1,000 word review that includes the following sections:
- Title page
- Introduction section
- A comparison of research questions
- A comparison of sample populations
- A comparison of the limitations of the study
- A conclusion section, incorporating recommendations for further research
Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.
