Chapters are what make up your Capstone project, with each describing different parts of your study. 

Chapter drafts are required so that you have a chance to receive feedback from their advisor to ensure their study is being conducted accurately and professionally. This feedback is to be used to complete your proposal and final capstone paper. 

Each chapter outline has a corresponding 'Outline of Criteria':

Chapter 1: Introduction

Chapter 2: Literature

Chapter 3: Methodology

Chapter 4: Results

Chapter 5: Discussion

Your proposal is a cohesive, and revised version that collates Chapters 1, 2, and 3. You will expand upon what was written in each draft, to ensure you meet the minimum page limit. It is important to use track changes to make any revisions with careful consideration to all feedback received from your draft submissions.

Evaluation criteria for the proposal can be found here.

The Micro Viva is a short, 1 on 1 between you and your instructor, designed to give you the opportunity to discuss and reflect on your study thus far. This meeting allows you to explain your work, & demonstrate your understanding of your study.

Your final capstone paper is a cohesive, and revised version that collates all chapters. It is important to use track changes to make any revisions with careful consideration to all feedback received from your draft submissions.

Your final capstone task is to transform your research findings into a public-facing Knowledge Mobilization (KMb) output that makes your study accessible and meaningful to a broader audience.

1.  KMb Explainer Video, 

2. KMb Product (Digital Media), and 

3. Padlet Reflection.
