RESEARCH
Research is a systematic, formal, rigorous and precise process employed to
gain solutions to problems or to discover and interpret new facts and
relationship –Waltz and Bansell.
Re = Again
Search = to look for
IMPORTANCE OF RESEARCH
1. To discover new ideas
2. To improve certain process;
3. To create something useful and cut something old;
4. To explain series of observations; and
5. To look at something in a different perspective using new investigative lens.
TYPES OF RESEARCH METHODS
QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
Focuses on testing theories and hypothesis
Analyzed through math and statistical analysis
Mainly expressed in numbers, graphs and tables.
Requires many respondents.
Closed (multiple choice) questions o Likert scales
Key Terms: testing, measurement, objectivity, replicabilty.
QUANTITATIVE METHODS deal with numbers and measurable forms. It uses
a systematic way of investigating events or date. It answers questions to
justify relationships with measurable variable to either explain, predict or
control a phenomenon.
Answearable by YES OR NO or multiple choice
QUALITATIVE RESEARCH
Focuses on exploring ideas and formulating a theory or hypothesis.
Analyzed by summarizing, categorizing and interpreting
Mainly expressed in words
Requires few participants
Open-ended questions
Key terms: understanding, context, complexity, subjectivity.
QUALITATIVE research is a method that collects date using conversational
methods.

synthesized

FORMULATING A RESEARCH
1. Think of a Research Title.
2. Breakdown into Sub-Topics.
3. Read Related Articles and Literature.
4. Look for a BLANK or BLIND SPOT
Blank Spot – These are things not yet covered by the study.
Blind Spot – Research gap of study.
5. List down important keywords.
CHAPTER 1
1st with general down to specific ideas…
Describe first ur variable
Intro – general to specific
Bos-define variables
-ano ung problema kung bkt cla nagcome up with that research
-discusses problem that is intended to solve
SOP it doesn’t have marami…
-TF these are theories na naging foundation na nagbuo sa research paper.
-have to find a related theories kung bkt kmi nag come up ng ganun… ung
magsusupport sa aming stand.
-theoretical based on theory
-conceptual framework base on own investigation.
-sa TF u find theories that will support ur study, sa CF u are having ur own position
and investigation sa problem/study mo.
-framework –supporting structure. may pictures, graphical representation
-usually one sentence
-ASSUMPTION – ano mangyayari sa research.
-HYPO- tentative answer sa research
-hanggang saan lang ba ang research?
-
Mga ilalagay sa S & D

-population of the study – target respondent and who are they
-ano naging kahinaan at problema bat ganun ung result
-mag possible weakness of the study. Bring outs the inaaccurasies of respondents.
-the benefacies sa study natin
-sino at paano makikinabang ang study
-terms or words that has unique meanings.
-usually na dinedefine ay variables.
-define academic performance.
OPERATIONAL DEFINITION – kung paano mo ginamit ang term sa study mo
CONCEPTIONAL DEFINITION –galing sa journal, etc
-dapat nka cite ang author etc.
CHAPTER 2
-MAKES KNOWLEDGE MORE BROAD
-ensures no duplication of studies
-
Gawin daw thematic
-summary ng mga binasa
-ano ung pareparehas na sinabi
-introduction – di kailangan mahaba
-main body – similarities and gaps of studies
-conclusion –
