Capstone Recommendations: Implications for Policy and Future Research

Capstone Recommendations: Implications for Policy and Future Research

Your Capstone recommendations should go beyond just practical solutions and consider the implications for policy and future research. These suggestions can help guide organizations, policymakers, or other researchers in addressing ongoing or future challenges.

4.1 Implications for Policy

  • Policy Recommendations: Based on your research findings, suggest changes or improvements to current policies or regulations. For example, if your research on healthcare access reveals significant gaps in service delivery, you may recommend policy changes to improve healthcare access in underserved communities.

  • Evidence-Based Policy: Ensure that your policy recommendations are grounded in the data and findings from your research. Policymakers need concrete evidence that supports any proposed changes.

  • Stakeholder Involvement: Discuss the stakeholders involved in the implementation of your policy recommendations and suggest how they can collaborate to address the issue.

4.2 Future Research

  • Address Unanswered Questions: Identify areas where your research was limited or where new questions have emerged. This can provide the basis for future studies.

  • Long-Term Impact: Suggest long-term research that could follow up on your Capstone study to track the impact of your recommendations over time.

  • Broader Applications: Consider how your research could be expanded to other settings, populations, or industries, and how these variations could impact the outcomes.
