Doctoral Capstone Report: Educational Videos for the REAL-T Research Study Through USC

Abstract

The purpose of the capstone project was to provide the capstone student with beyond entry level skills, knowledge, and experience relating to research. Additionally, the capstone student was to create three video resources for the Lifestyle Redesign for Chronic Conditions Lab (LRCC) at the University of Southern California (USC), where the capstone project was virtually completed. The capstone student measured the progression of their goals through weekly reflections and a Qualtrics survey to analyze the perceived benefits of the videos they created. The capstone student successfully completed both goals of their project by the end of their 14 week rotation. This paper will further outline the need for the project, the available literature on the subject, the process and implementation of the project, the evaluation of the project, and the sustainability of the capstone project moving forward.
