Project Proposal- Literature Review-Assignment/Research and Record References 1000 words
In order to better understand the problem that you wish to investigate for your capstone topic, you will need to conduct a review of the research literature. Your project should include a review of the existing research on your topic and a discussion comparing this research to your project focus. The review should address what others have discovered or written about your topic and how the research helps you with investigating your capstone project.
For this step of your capstone project, you will need to complete an annotated bibliography related to your APPROVED TOPIC from the Week 1 proposal. Please refer to this link to learn more about the purpose and contents of the annotated bibliography:OWL at Purdue
Be sure to complete all three components of the annotated bibliography (summarize, assess, reflect). Your initial annotated bibliography should include 12-15 sources/references and should follow APA writing style. References should be no older than five years, but classic texts that outline well-established theories may be included in three of the sources.
For those familiar with Excel, an Excel template is provided. You can use this template while researching each reference or use a text-based format as shown at the OWL at Purdue weblink (above). Filling in a template as you research saves time when trying to find a specific reference during the writing phase.

Procedures and Evaluations Plan- Capstone
Describe how you plan to use your time over the next month (Weeks 3-6 of this course) to investigate and gather information related to your project. This could involve interviews, observations, surveys, phone calls, review of critical documents, etc. Explain what you will do to learn more about the problem you are trying to solve and how you plan on becoming an expert on both this topic and the setting in which the problem you want to solve exists. This usually involves learning everything you can about the people, culture, policies, procedures, demographics, programs, strengths and weaknesses of the context.
Your plan should be 1000-words in length, with title page and reference page not counting towards the minimum word amount. You may include tables, but your plan must follow the APA standards as shown in Chapter 5 of the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition. Clearly label the sections of your paper so that the instructor knows exactly what topics you are addressing in your discussion.
Procedures
Over the next three weeks, you will be completing the Project Investigation phase of the capstone project. Therefore, you need to describe your plan for how you will spend your time over the next month, on a daily basis in order to achieve the goals you describe in your Topic Proposal in Week 1. Provide a step-by-step analysis of how you intend to meet your goals, including resources you will need, where you intend to find them, and an estimated timeline of how long each step will take. This is a very important section of your proposal. Describe in detail exactly what you will achieve and investigate in relation to your capstone topic for every day over the next four weeks. You literally need to label the days of your plan (Day 1, Day2, Day 3… Day 28). Outline what deliverables will be targeted each week.
A deliverable is a tangible product (e.g., locate and read the organization’s Use of Force policy, review the process for investigating officer-involved shootings, evaluate the agency’s critical incident management program, etc.). This represents your work plan and schedule of deliverables. By knowing which deliverables you need to collect, you will know what you need to gather and accomplish each week. The plan should be thoughtful, laser-focused, detailed, and scaffolded so that earlier pieces and deliverables support later pieces.
Evaluations
Explain how your project is to be evaluated. Is your organization going to evaluate it? How? Community evaluation? Problem-oriented policing and the SARA model? What specifically will make your project a success, both to you and to others? In relation to the evaluation of your project by outsiders, describe who, what, when, where and how.
