Problems Week 3 Lesson 1
I.OBJECTIVE
At the end of the lesson, the learners CAN…
1. Explain the scope and limitation of the study by:
1.1 comparing between scope and limitations ; and
1.2 showing examples.
1.2 distinguishing scope from limitation

II.ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS

1.1 Summary of Essential Knowledge

Scope and Limitations of the Study

Parameters that prevent researchers from pursuing further studies due to
time and budgetary constraints

A. Scope -the coverage (context) , range (locale) and period of the study
B.Limitations - weaknesses of the study beyond the control of the researcher

Example
This study is delimited to determine the level of commitment of teachers and their
teaching performance. Commitment of teachers will be measured in terms of normative,
continuance and affective. On the other hand, teaching performance will be gauged in terms of
organizing curriculum, delivery of instruction and assessment of learning. This will be
conducted in Immaculate Conception Archdiocesan School – Tetuan , school year 2020-2021.
The respondents of this study will be the teachers in ICAS-Tetuan who have been
teaching for five years and above. The survey questionnaires will be used in gathering data.

1.2 Testing for Knowledge

Based on the definitions of Scope and Limitations, list one statement for scope and
another one for limitations.
This study is delimited to determine the level of motivation of students and their academic
performance in core subjects. Their level of motivation in terms of descriptive, continuance,
and affective. It will be conducted at Immaculate Conception Archdiocesan School Senior
High School Department in Tetuan, Zamboanga City, school year 2020-2021.

The respondents of this study will be the students of ICAS-Tetuan of Grade 12 STEM
students wherein they will be divided by sections and randomly selected. The survey
questionnaires will be used in gathering data.

1.2 Knowledge Scanning

How do you distinguish scope from limitations of the study?

Scope broadly refers to the extent to which you plan to  study/research your topic.
The limitations of the study refer to the shortcomings of the study – things you believe
the research lacked or ways in which it could have been better.

1.3 Integration of Knowledge

Summarize your learning of this concept , “Scope and Limitations of the Study.”
The scope identifies the boundaries of the study in term of subjects, objectives,
facilities, area, time frame, and the issues to which the  research is focused. The
limitations of the study are those characteristics of design or methodology that
impacted or influenced the interpretation of the findings from your research

III.SELF-DETERMINING PRACTICE

Develop the scope and limitations of this study.

Case: The researcher is working on a research paper , “Factors Affecting the Career
Choice of the Senior High School Students of Immaculate Conception Archdiocesan
School.” The factors include personal decision, parental influence, and peer
influence.

Write your:

Scope
This study is delimited to determine the relationship between personal decision,
parental influence, and peer influence of the students. In other words, the students
 will be gauged, and assessed in terms of the factor that influence their career choice.
This will be conducted in Immaculate Conception Archdiocesan School – Tetuan,
school year 2020 – 2021.

Limitations
The respondents of this study will be the students of ICAS – Tetuan of Grade 12
STEM students wherein they’ll be divided by section and will be randomly selected.
Survey questionnaire will be used to gather data.

IV.REFLECTION/ACTION

Develop a paragraph that manifests the limitations of your freedom as a citizen of this
country.
Although we have freedom of expression, we also have a duty to behave responsibly and to
respect other people’s rights. If, for instance, you hold viewpoints that promote racial or
religious hatred, an authority might be permitted to limit your freedom of speech. The
applicable public body must, however, demonstrate that the regulation is 'proportionate,' that
is to say, that it is sufficient and not more than necessary to resolve the issue at issue.

5. Synthesize a paragraph.

II.ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS

1.1Summary of Essential Knowledge
Literature review is defined as an examination of relevant books, scholarly works, and
any other sources pertinent to an area of research. It is a consolidation of key ideas and
evaluation of the literature available in view of the research problem. It also provides an
overview of the sources you have explored while researching a particular topic and
demonstrating to your reader how your research fits within a larger field of study.
Systematic reviews of related literature require citation – proper citation. There is a need
to recognize the sources of the information that we are citing, and there are proper way of
doing this.
The primary ethical issue that we often encounter is on plagiarism. Wagger and Wiffin
(2011) defined plagiarism as using somebody elses ideas, images, data, words, or other
original creations without acknowledgment or permission and claiming then as your own
original work.
To avoid plagiarism, it is important to cite sources properly and give due recognition to
the author or source of an idea. Citing sources is called citation.
The materials are usually printed and found in books, encyclopaedia, professional
journals, magazines, newspapers and other published materials.

Purposes of Review of Related Literature and Studies

1.To find out the connection of your research to the current conditions or situations of the
worlds
2.To know more about theories or concepts underlying your research and to learn from
them with respect to your own research study 3.To discover the relation of your research
with previous research studies
4.To obtain information on the accuracy or relevance of your research questions
5.To familiarize yourself with technical terms related to your research.
 1.2 Testing for Knowledge

1. What are the primary sources of related literature and studies?

In particular, the materials or the primary sources are printed and contained in books,
encyclopedias, technical journals, newsletters, newspapers and other materials written.
2.When do you say that your review of related literature is plagiarized?
If you didn’t cited references and given due credit to the author or source of an idea, we will
assume it is plagiarized. Citing references are referred to as citations.
1.3 Knowledge Scanning

How important is the review of related literature in your research?

The literature review is important because it explains how the analysis presented is compared
to previous statistical research. It illustrates the originality and importance of the issue of your
study. Your analysis is specifically distinct from most statisticians. It indicates your
willingness to finish the study. And provide a base of topical knowledge. To avoid overlap
and give credit to other studies, recognize fields of previous scholarship. Identify
inconstancies, study holes, conflicts in past studies, open issues left by other studies.
1.4 Integration of Learning

Summarize your insights on the review of related literature

A Review of Related Literature (RRL) is a systematic review of current literature pertaining to
the subject of a thesis or dissertation. You explore information and observations from current
research related to your subject in an RRL. A systematic overview of prior studies on a subject
is a literature review. The literature review analyzes scientific documents, novels, and other
sources related to a specific field of analysis.

III. SELF – DETERMINING PRACTICE

Synthesize the paragraph and list a reference using the American Psychological
Association Format (APA).

Paragraph

Kent and Facer (2004) indicated that school is an important environment in which
students participate in a wide range of computer activities, while the home serves as a
complementary site for regular engagement in a narrower set of computer activities.
Increasingly, ICT is being applied successfully in instruction, learning, and assessment. ICT is
considered a powerful tool for educational change and reform.
Synthesis

School is a significant atmosphere in which students participate in a wide variety of computer

activities and partake in a wide scope of PC exercises, while home is a complementary venue
for daily involvement in a limited range of computer activities and fills in as a reciprocal site
for normal commitment in a smaller arrangement of PC exercises. Increasingly, ICT is being
successfully implemented in teaching, learning, and evaluation. ICT is considered an
important instrument for improvement, asset for instructive change and reform of education.

IV.REFLECTION

Organizing review of related literature is done systematically to achieve coherence , unity

and consistency of thoughts. In life, how can we attain coherence, unity and consistency?

In unity all of us must be unified on everything that we do for the society. In coherence each
and every one of us must establish continuity within or towards the things that will help our
society and make us grow. In consistency, all of us should be consistent in doing good things
for the betterment of ourselves and for our economy to develop and enrapture. This are the
things that we need to know to be able to attain these three words in life.

TOPIC:
Literature Week 3 Lesson 3
I. OBJECTIVE
At the end of the lesson, the learners CAN…
1. cite relevant theory/ies for your study
2. Explain the importance of theory to your research paper; and
3. Distinguish theory from hypothesis.

II.ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS

1.1 Summary of Essential Knowledge

Importance of a Theory

A theoretical framework consists of concepts and, together with their definitions

and reference to relevant scholarly literature, existing theory that is used for your
particular study. The theoretical framework must demonstrate an understanding of
theories and concepts that are relevant to the topic of your research paper and that relate
to the broader areas of knowledge being considered.

The theoretical framework is most often not something readily found within the
literature. You must review course readings and pertinent research studies for theories
and analytic models that are relevant to the research problem you are investigating. The
selection of a theory should depend on its appropriateness, ease of application, and
explanatory power

The theoretical framework strengthens the study in the following ways:

1. An explicit statement of  theoretical assumptions permits the reader to evaluate

them critically.
2. The theoretical framework connects the researcher to existing knowledge. Guided
by a relevant theory, you are given a basis for your hypotheses and choice of research
methods.
3. Articulating the theoretical assumptions of a research study forces you to address
questions of why and how. It permits you to intellectually transition from simply
describing a phenomenon you have observed to generalizing about various aspects of
that phenomenon.
4. Having a theory helps you identify the limits to those generalizations. A
theoretical framework specifies which key variables influence a phenomenon of
 interest and highlights the need to examine how those key variables might differ and
under what circumstances

Developing the Framework

Here are some strategies to develop of an effective theoretical framework:

1. Examine your thesis title and research problem. The research problem anchors
your entire study and forms the basis from which you construct your theoretical
framework.
2. Brainstorm about what you consider to be the key variables in your research .
Answer the question, "What factors contribute to the presumed effect?"
3. Review related literature to find how scholars have addressed your research
problem. Identify the assumptions from which the author(s) addressed the problem.
4. List  the constructs and variables that might be relevant to your study. Group
these variables into independent and dependent categories.
5. Review key social science theories that are introduced to you in your course
readings and choose the theory that can best explain the relationships between the
key variables in your study [note the Writing Tip on this page].
6. Discuss the assumptions or propositions of this theory and point out their
relevance to your research

A theory requires a framework for understanding its application to the topic being
investigated. When writing and revising this part of your research paper, keep in mind
the following:

 Clearly describe the framework, concepts, models, or specific theories that

underpin your study. This includes noting who the key theorists are in the field who
have conducted research on the problem you are investigating and, when necessary,
the historical context that supports the formulation of that theory. This latter element
is particularly important if the theory is relatively unknown or it is borrowed from
another discipline.
 Position your theoretical framework within a broader context of related
frameworks, concepts, models, or theories. As noted in the example above, there will
likely be several concepts, theories, or models that can be used to help develop a
framework for understanding the research problem. Therefore, note why the theory
you've chosen is the appropriate one.
 The present tense is used when writing about theory. Although the past tense can
be used to describe the history of a theory or the role of key theorists, the
construction of your theoretical framework is happening now.
 You should make your theoretical assumptions as explicit as possible. Later, your
discussion of methodology should be linked back to this theoretical framework.
 Don’t just take what the theory says as a given!  Reality is never accurately
represented in such a simplistic way; if you imply that it can be, you fundamentally
 distort a reader's ability to understand the findings that emerge. Given this, always
note the limitations of the theoretical framework you've chosen [i.e., what parts of the
research problem require further investigation because the theory inadequately
explains a certain phenomena]

The terms theory and hypothesis are often used interchangeably in newspapers and
popular magazines and in non-academic settings. However, the difference between
theory and hypothesis in scholarly research is important, particularly when using an
experimental design.
A theory is a well-established principle that has been developed to explain some
aspect of the natural world. Theories arise from repeated observations and testing and
incorporates facts, laws, predictions, and tested assumptions that are widely accepted
[e.g., rational choice theory; grounded theory; critical race theory].
A hypothesis is a specific, testable prediction about what you expect to happen in
your study. For example, an experiment designed to look at the relationship between
study habits and test anxiety might have a hypothesis that states, "We predict that
students with better study habits will suffer less test anxiety." Unless your study is
exploratory in nature, your hypothesis should always explain what you expect to happen
during the course of your research.

The key distinctions are:

 A theory predicts events in a broad, general context; a hypothesis makes a
specific prediction about a specified set of circumstances.
 A theory has been extensively tested and is generally accepted among scholars; a
hypothesis is a speculative guess that has yet to be tested

1.2 Testing for Knowledge

What is the difference between a theory and hypothesis?

In a large, general sense, a theory forecasts outcomes and has been thoroughly tested and is
widely agreed by scholars, whereas a hypothesis makes a particular assumption over a certain
set of circumstances and is a speculative opinion that has yet to be tested.

1.3 Knowledge Scanning

Why is theoretical framework needed in research?

To explain the underlying hypothesis in a way that is more explicitly established, the
theoretical framework is essential for all analysis. Researchers will also be able to take into
account their limitations and new ideas that contradict their viewpoint.

1.4 Integration of Knowledge

How do you know that a particular theory is relevant and applicable to your research?
The theoretical framework must reflect an interpretation of ideas and principles that are
applicable to the subject of your research paper and that contribute to the wider fields of
expertise that are being discussed. For hypotheses and theoretical models that are applicable
to the research issue you are researching, you may study course readings and relevant research
studies. A theory's selection should depend on its appropriateness, ease of use, and strength of
interpretation.

III.SELF-DETERMINING PRACTICE

Summarize your insights about theoretical framework.

The mechanism that can carry or endorse a hypothesis of a scientific analysis is the theoretical
framework. The theoretical framework introduces and outlines the hypothesis that explains
why the research topic occurs under study. And your study is driven by a theoretical
framework, deciding what things you are going to calculate and what statistical relationships
you are going to look for.

IV.REFLECTION/ACTION

What would be the consequence of your decisions on issues when you based them on
existing facts and data.

Data should be collected on how people are now impacted by the present crisis. Instead of
depending on existing facts and results, it is easier to focus our decisions on what is happening
now. However, this existing insights can also be used to extract information from the past. In
conclusion, I agree the decision is important if we are going to use data on the current issue
impacting individuals right now in these days.

I. OBJECTIVE
At the end of the lesson, the learners CAN…
1. illustrate and explain the conceptual framework by:
1.1 showing and explaining the variables of the study in the conceptual framework; and
1.2 explaining how the conceptual framework is developed.

II.ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS

1.1 Summary of Essential Knowledge

A Conceptual Framework is the researcher’s understanding of how the particular

variables in his study connect with each other. Thus it identifies the variables required
in the research investigation. The conceptual framework lies within a much broader
framework called theoretical framework.

The conceptual framework is the visual illustration or map that articulates the steps
followed in the course of the study. The basis for developing the conceptual
framework is on the research problems.

Example:
The students are conducting a study on the factors affecting students reading
comprehension skills.

Possible Questions are:

1.What is the extent of the factors affecting the reading comprehension skills of
the students in terms of:
1.1 personal
1.2 home
1.3 school
1.4 community
2.What is the level of the reading comprehension skills of the students in terms of:
2.1 literal
 2.2 inferential
2.3 critical
3.Do the factors significantly affect the level of the reading comprehension skills
of the students?

1.2 Testing of Knowledge

Instructions:
1. Develop the conceptual paradigm of the research study using the specific
problems and identify the independent and dependent variables.
2.Explain how the conceptual paradigm was developed.
Situation: The students are instructed to conduct a study on the level of awareness and
practices on waste management among residents of Tetuan.
 The following are the questions derived from the topic:
1.What is the level of awareness on waste management of the residents?
2.What are the practices on waste management of the residents?
3.Is there a significant relationship between level of awareness on waste
management of the residents?

The first box of the conceptual framework is the independent variable (first question),
the second box is the dependent variable (second question) and the line with an arrow
pointing to the first and second box is the third question (significant relationship).

1.3 Knowledge Scanning

Why is there a need for a conceptual framework in research investigation?

In the research, a conceptual framework explains what you plan to discover. For your analysis,
it describes the related variables and maps out how they might contribute to each other. Before
you begin gathering data, you can create a logical context. It is also represented in a way that
is visual.
How does one identify the variables to be able to develop the conceptual paradigm of
the study?
Variables are essentially the functions you choose to research or properties. The conceptual
framework will chart the interaction between them that is awaited.

1.4 Integration of Learning

Explain the importance of conceptual paradigm of the study in relation to the

development of the research study.

The conceptual framework-analysis target pairings that they suggest are beneficial and offer a
point of departure for new scholars to create their own research design. Frameworks have also
been used to clarify the philosophy of dispute and the equilibrium required to accomplish
what amounts to resolution.

III. SELF – DETERMINING PRACTICE

Directions: Please answer the following questions:

1. Identify and explain the roles of the variables of the study.

The significance of variables that are dependent and independent. The meaning of
dependent and independent factors is that they lead the researchers with full curiosity to sue
their experiments. Dependent and independent variables are both significant since the cause
and effects of research are determined by them.

2.Explain the procedures in developing the conceptual paradigm of the study.

The researcher defines the research problem and the main variables that will be used to
address the problem in the case of quantitative research. If a conceptual model is built in a
logical way, it can provide the analysis method with rigor.

2. Compare and contrast null and alternative hypotheses by:
2.1 showing examples

II.ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS

1.1Summary of Essential Concepts

Hypothesis is an educated guess which serves as a tentative answer to the research inferential
questions given at the beginning of the research process.
Hypothesis can be of different types.
Null hypothesis (Ho) negates the existence of the relationship between the independent and
dependent variables.
Alternative hypothesis (Ha) affirms the existence of the relationship between the independent
and dependent variables.

comprehension proficiency of the SHS students?
Ho: These is no significant relationship between vocabulary proficiency and
reading comprehension proficiency of the SHS students.
Ha: These is no significant relationship between vocabulary proficiency and
reading comprehension proficiency of the SHS students.
2.Is there a significant difference on the vocabulary proficiency level of the SHS
students when data are categorized according to sex?
Ho: There is no significant difference on the vocabulary proficiency level of the
SHS students when data are categorized according to sex.
Ha: There is a significant difference on the vocabulary proficiency level of the
SHS students when data are categorized according to sex.
3.Does the vocabulary proficiency level of the students significantly affect their
reading comprehension proficiency level?
Ho: The vocabulary proficiency level of the students does not significantly affect
their reading comprehension proficiency level.
Ha: The vocabulary proficiency level of the students significantly affects
their reading comprehension proficiency level.

1.2 Testing of Knowledge

Directions: Give the null (HO) and alternative (Ha) hypotheses of the following
inferential questions:
Inferential Questions:
1. Does the level of health awareness of the SHS students significantly influence their health
practices?
Ho:
The level of health awareness of the SHS students does not significantly influence their health
practices.
Ha
The level of health awareness of the SHS students significantly influence their health practices.
2.Is there a significant difference on the level of health awareness of the SHS students when
data are categorized according to sex, socio-economic status and strand?
Ho:
There is no significant difference on the level of health awareness of the SHS students when data are
categorized according to sex, socio-economic status and strand.
Ha:
There is a significant difference on the level of health awareness of the SHS students when data are
categorized according to sex, socio-economic status and strand.
1.3 Knowledge Scanning
 How do you know that the hypothesis is null or alternative?

The existence of the relationship between independent and dependent variables is negated by
the null hypothesis (Ho). The existence of the relation between independent and dependent
variables is verified by the alternative hypothesis (Ha).
1.4 Integration of Learning

The null hypothesis is a general assumption that states that there is no association between
two phenomena under investigation or that two classes are not related. An alternative
hypothesis is a statement that explains in an analysis that there is a correlation between two
chosen variables.
III. SELF-DETERMINING PRACTICE

I.OBJECTIVE
At the end of the lesson, the learners CAN…
1. Define terms used in the study by:
1.1 distinguishing the conceptual and operational definitions.

II.ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS

1.1 Summary of Essential Concepts

Below is a list of definitions of terms. Classify them into Conceptual and Operational
definition.
1.Face-to-face Interaction.
1.1 The interaction patterns and verbal exchanges that take place. – Conceptual
Definition
1.2 The positioning of students as they interact face- to- face. – Operational
Definition
1.3 This refers to having direct eye contact of students as they interact with each
other. – Operational Definition
2.Positive Interdependence
2.1 The awareness and mechanisms by which each member of the group can
contribute to group success. – Conceptual Definition
2.2 It refers to students knowledge about their responsibilities to help each member
learns. – Operational Definition
3. Attitude.
3.1 The psychological tendency to view a particular object or behaviour with a
degree of favour or disfavour. – Conceptual Definition
3.2 This refers to the tendency of the students to view Physics subject positively or
negatively. – Operational Definition
1.4 Testing of Knowledge
How do you distinguish conceptual definition from operational definition?
Through describing how they are connected to other constructs, a conceptual definition tells
you what the term means and tells you what the constructs are. While an operational definition
tells you only how to calculate it, it also defines the variables you are going to use as metrics
or structures for you and the methods you are going to use to observe or measure the
variables.
1.2 Knowledge Scanning

1. Why do we define the terms/variables used in research study?

In research, the purpose of a defining terms/variables is to clarify the meaning of a term
that may be obscure or complicated, by using widely known words whose meaning is clear.

2.Which definition (conceptual or operational) is used in quantitative research? Why?

Operational Definition, it specifies a measurement procedure (a set of operations) for
measuring an external, observable behavior and uses the resulting measurements as
a definition and a measurement of the hypothetical construct.
1.3 Integration of Learning

Wrap up your understanding of the conceptual and operational definitions by

disclosing its similarities and differences.
Conceptual and Operational Definition is used in research, and has a functions in making a
research, both conceptual and operational definition gives us a clearer comprehension in
research for us to easily understand it’s terms or variables in our study. And it has differences,
conceptual definition is process of defining concepts, while operational definition specifies
how a concept will be measured.

IV. REFLECTION/ACTION

Based on your understanding on the concept of operational and conceptual definitions,

how would you distinguish yourself as an ICASEAN from students of other schools?
What differs myself as an ICASEAN from students of other schools is my skills, and my
sufficient knowledge that is beneficial for me and for the community because I studied here in
ICAS and I think that’s my edge, other schools lack advancement and for me, ICAS really
help me develop myself and provided me an advance course which is what I’m implying now
to myself.
