Before we start, let us pray first..
BEFORE WE START OUR DISCUSSION, LET
US WATCH THIS VIDEO..
Based on the video,
answer the following..
1. What is the video presentation all
about?
2. What does the video want to tell
about the world if without
research?
3. If you were to realize, do you see
research as integral in our world
today?
What is a research
methodology?
A research methodology is a
systematic plan for conducting
research. It’s a strategy or technique
that researchers use to collect,
analyze, and interpret data. The
choice of research method depends
on the research question, the type of
data needed, and the overall research
design.
THE TWO CATEGORIES ARE:
- Collects non-numerical

Study Title: “Shoreline changes over last
five decades and predictions for 2030 and
Example for 2040: a case study from Cuddalore,
southeast coast of India.”
Qualitative
Research
Why It’s Qualitative: The study is
qualitative because it utilizes specific,
localized data from Cuddalore to gain an
in-depth understanding and make future
predictions about shoreline changes. It’s
focused on a single location, providing a
detailed narrative and analysis rather than
broad, quantitative measurements
Example for
Quantitative Research
Study Title: “The Impact of After-School
Programs on Student Academic Performance”
Method Used: Survey
Why It’s Quantitative: The study is
quantitative because it involves the collection
and statistical analysis of numerical data. The
data collected allowed the researchers to
measure changes in academic performance and
statistically determine the effectiveness of the
after-school programs.
LET US CHECK YOUR
UNDERSTANDING FIRST
Identify whether
Instructions:
the given titles of
research and their
abstract an example of
quantitative research or
qualitative research.
1. Title: Exploring the Lived Experiences of Senior High School
Teachers in Implementing Blended Learning
Abstract: This study explores the lived experiences of senior
high school teachers in adapting to blended learning
approaches in public schools. In-depth interviews were
conducted with ten teachers using phenomenological
methodology to understand their challenges, coping
mechanisms, and insights.
2.Title: Understanding the Cultural Identity of Indigenous
Students in Urban Schools
Abstract: This qualitative case study investigates how
Indigenous students navigate and express their cultural
identity in an urban high school setting. Data were collected
through semi-structured interviews, focus group
discussions, and participant observations involving ten
indigenous students and five teachers.
3. Title: The Effect of Classroom Seating
Arrangement on Student Participation in STEM
Classes
Abstract: This research examines the effect of
seating arrangements on student participation
in STEM senior high school classes.
THINK-PAIR-SHARE
ACTIVITY (10 mins.)
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Look for a pair and get one half
crosswise then write your names
together on it.
2. You will be given some research
abstract and you are going to identify
whether it is a qualitative research or a
quantitative research.
3. Be prepared for a checking after.
GALLERY WALL
ACTIVITY (15 mins.)
Instructions:
1. Go with your group and bring the
necessary materials.
2. Create or find any research topics (at
least 3) under the assigned category
either qualitative or quantitative and
write them on the Manila paper.
3. Post your work on any part of the room.
4. Prepare for feedback and review by
your classmates and from the teacher.
Before we end, complete the following…
I realized that qualitative research is
______________________________.
I realized that quantitative research is
