When considering the improvement of an organizational challenge as the focus and topic of a doctoral capstone project, you’ll need to evaluate whether it has the necessary characteristics and elements for EBP improvement and whether it meets Capella University requirements.
Instructions
Critically analyze each of the identified organizational challenges you identified in Week 3 and compare them with Capella University’s criteria for an approvable doctoral capstone topic and project and with elements needed for the application of EBP improvement. Then, make a case for focusing on one challenge as the best opportunity for EBP improvement in a potential doctoral capstone project.
Requirements
The assignment requirements, outlined below, correspond to the scoring guide criteria, so be sure to address each main point. Read the performance-level descriptions for each criterion to see how your work will be assessed. In addition, note the additional requirements for document format, length, and supporting evidence.
