Target

In our current situation, the pandemic has brought everyone in the midst of
uncertainty specially in trying to understand what is happening around us.
Different questions you might ask yourself normally from low order thinking
questions like what, where and when to high order thinking questions like asking
how and why. Basically, we often conduct research in order to address such
questions and conducting research is a tedious process that one must acquire the
necessary skills in order to create an authentic research and eventually it will
enhance and develop your passion in conducting research.

In this module, you are going to design your own research project based from the
topic of your chosen interest. You are going to learn what are the different
procedures on how to write research title as well as proving your title to be
essential in the area of your concern. Moreover, after you have formulated your
research title, you must learn how to provide justifications for conducting
research.

After going through this learning material, you are expected to attain the
following objectives:

Learning Competency:
 Designs research project related to daily life (CS_RS11Ice-1)
 Writes a research title (CS_RS11Ice-2)
 Provides the justifications/reasons for conducting research (CS_RS11Ice-3)
 States research questions (CS_RS11Ice-4)
 Indicates Scope and Delimitation of research (CS_RS11Ice-5)
 Cites benefits and beneficiaries of research (CS_RS11Ice-6)
 Presents a written statement of the problem (CS_RS11Ice-7)

Research Project
A research project is something that is worth investigating. This means that there is no
exact study that covers the problem encountered in a particular place. Neil Alden
Armstrong, an American Astronaut said: “In much of society, research means to
investigate something you do not know or understand.”
Designing a research project refers to a general approach that a researcher chooses to
integrate the different components of the study in a coherent and logical means,
whereby, assuring the researcher to effectively address the research problem.
Moreover, it establishes the design for the COPIA approach to research that is,
Collection, Organization, Presentation, Interpretation and Analysis of data.

Preliminaries of the Research Paper

Main Research Tools

1. Observation- a technique of gathering data whereby you personally watch,
interact, communicate with the subjects of your research.
2. Interview- a data gathering technique that makes you verbally ask the subjects or
participants questions to give answers to what your research study is trying to
look for.
3. Documentary analysis – it uses a systematic procedure to analyze documentary
evidence and answer specific research questions.

The main treatment of qualitative data is through thematic analysis which can be
generated from the gathered data using the different research tools.

The research shall be organized as follows:

 Title Page
 Acknowledgement
 Dedication
 Abstract
 Table of Contents
 List of Tables

F. Background of the Study

The purpose of your BOS is to introduce the research idea to the reader and to establish its
importance and its potential significance.

a. If the title of the research problem seems “featurized”, the first paragraph must be devoted
to explain the title.
b. Direct quotations must not be written as the first paragraph, instead this can be rephrased to
add substance to the details of the problem.
c. Describe the problem situation by considering global, national and local forces. Discussions
should be from macro to micro (general to specific).
d. In the local scenario, cite observations, local studies and the like. There must be emphasis in
the local scenario to warrant the existence of the research. More discussions and descriptions
must be seen on this part.
e. Ensure coherence of ideas within and among paragraphs and across sentences.
f. End with the main objective of the study by presenting logical argument telling the reader
why it is important to conduct such particular study or why the research problem is important.

Guidelines in Selecting a Practical and Researchable Topic

1. Personal Resources
Researchers’ own personal training and experiences can influence their choice of
approach. An individual trained in technical, scientific writing, statistics, and computer
statistical programs and familiar with quantitative journals in the library would most
likely choose the quantitative design.
2. Timeliness and Relevance of the Topic
Along the midst of information generator called the internet, the problem is not lying on
the scarcity of information but on overloading of available sources from the World Wide
Web. Thus, a researcher must only identify the timely and relevant topic that he or she
is willing to work on.
 3. Availability of Information
In choosing a research topic, it is a must that you visit your library to check the
availability of reading materials related to your chosen topic. If there is scarcity of
previous studies for your topic in your library, then you must go through the internet for
additional searching of the information. If it not also available in the internet, then it is
good in advancing your qualitative investigation.

4. Interest in the Subject Matter

Your interest is equivalent with your passion. This means when you are interested in
something, you find a way to do it because you, on the first place, like it. If you like
something, you always have the energy and the will to finish it whatever it takes.
Therefore, commitment will be the greatest virtue that you need to possess in order to
finish your research.

Writing a Research Title

Guidelines on formulating titles of research papers in the academe
(American Psychological Association, 2001):

1. The title should encapsulate the main idea of the research.

2. Title should be self-explanatory
3. Identify theme, subtheme and categories.
4. Avoid using abbreviations
5. Use words that create a positive impression and stimulate reader’s interest.
6. May reveal how the paper will be organized.
7. Do not include “study of," “analysis of” or similar constructions
8. Use current nomenclature from the field of study
9. Indicate accurately the subject and scope of the stud
10. The recommended length of a research title is 10 to 12 substantive words not including
articles.
11. Titles are basically in the form of a phrase, but can also in the form of a question.
12. Title should identify the actual variables or theoretical issues being studied in the
research.
13. The author can play with his/her title (e.g. Fuel of Millennial Abodes) only for qualitative
research

Examples of Approved Qualitative Research Titles

1. Friends with Benefits: Causes and Effects of Cheating During Examination (Diego, 2017)
2. Why did the boat sink? The reasons of academic Failures
3. Stay with me please: The strucggles of students with OFW parents
4. When I stayed old and fab: The stories of a 100-year old Ilocana
5. Amoy-Turista: Smell as a Key Component in Being Presentable among Palawan Tour
Guides (Davatos, 2017)
6. Pampaalert: Security Guards’ Use of Chemicals (Diego, 2017)
7. Tagabanwa-Tagabayan: Hiya and the Liminal Position of Young Indigenous People in
Palawan (Pulanco, 2017)
 8. Pampapogi/Pampaganda: Achieving Desired Gender Identities (Josol, 2017)
9. Must Have Pleasing Personality: Performing Femininity in the Service
Sector of a Southern Philippine Boomtown (Taqueban,2017)
10. “I want to be Tall Someday”: Height Aspirations Among Young People in the
Philippines (Lasco, 2017)

If you are going to observe the presented titles above for qualitative research, it
was written creatively and sometimes we call the research title for qualitative
research as “colonization” because every title, it has “colon” mark to showing the
creative “tag line”. Since, one of the guidelines in writing the research title, it
should stimulate reader’s interest. Remember, that a qualitative research is more
on words capturing the human experiences for better understanding.

ABSTRACT
Cheating during examinations is triggered by peer influence. Learners, in this case, know
and do what should not be done, for cheating corrupts and defeats the purposes of
understanding, applying and creating ideas as stipulated in revised Bloom’s taxonomy by
Anderson. The study reported here was designed to explain the reasons and aspirations
of students involved in cheating during examinations. Sixteen (16) key informants,
selected using random sampling procedure among Junior and Senior High School
learners of Roxas National Comprehensive High School during the months of June to
October 2016, completed open-ended questionnaires and took part in interviews. Nvivo
software analysis was used in the analysis of the themes that emerged from the data.
This study discovered that friendship is manipulated, for it makes doing right things
unacceptable and actions to be avoided like cheating seem right and acceptable.
Cheating during examinations is behavior which is deeply rooted in the culture of
pakikisama (social acceptance/liking) and utang ng loob (debt of gratitude). If a learner
does not share his or her answers, he or she will be labeled as walang pakisama (no
concern). This paper then argues that honesty should not be just a policy; rather,
honesty in this case, is the only policy. Condemning academic dishonesty must not
merely rest in the enrollment forms, but by constant moral reminder and intervention
of teachers who have responsibility to hone learners’ decorum on honesty and maturity.

Keywords: cheating, examination, behavior

a. Reasons and Aspirations of Students Involved in Cheating During Examinations.
b. Friends with Benefits: Causes and Effects of Cheating During Examination
c. Cheating during Examinations as a behavior which is deeply rooted in the culture of
pakikisama (social acceptance/liking) and utang ng loob (debt of gratitude).
d. Cheating During Examinations as Triggered by Peer Influence

Answer: b. Friends with Benefits: Causes and Effects of Cheating During Examination

Why did you choose that letter as the title of your abstract? What are the guidelines you
did follow in making a qualitative title?
I become practical in choosing the titles because now a days, people tend to cheat but
they don’t even know what will happen when they cheat during examinations and
during their tasks.

Research Problem Versus Research Question

Research problem drives you to think a topic that you can investigate or focus on. For
you to do it, a researcher must gather relevant ideas and information or spend time getting
background knowledge about the problem that triggered off your research topic to discover
its relation to what the world, particularly the experts, professionals and learned people
know about the topic.
Research problems enables you to generate a set of research questions which serves as
guideposts of your study and specifically and scientifically narrows your study.
The following shows you the link among the following: research problem, research
topic, research question and the construction of one general questions and specific
questions or a research paper.

Example 1:
Research Problem: The need to have an alternative mode of education in this time of
COVID 19 Pandemic.
Research Topic: Education sector in the midst of COVID 19 Pandemic
General Question: What is the adoptable alternative mode of education from one of the
countries in Southeast Asia?
Specific Questions:
1. What is Virtual Education Delivery (VED) as an alternative mode of education in
Thailand?
2. What are the factors influencing effective implementation of Virtual Education
Delivery in Thailand?
3. How political economy is being applied to solve the current problem on education in
Thailand?
4. How could a Virtual Education Delivery serve as a Model to be adapted in the
Philippine educational system in this time of Pandemic?

Example 2:

Research Problem: Mobile Legend Dependency.

Research Topic: Mobile Legend among Youth
General Question: What are the causes and effect of playing Mobile Legends to learners’
social and academic attitudes?
Specific Questions:
1. What are the reasons why students engage in playing mobile legends?
2. What are the ways by which students engage in playing mobile legends?
3. What are the effects of engaging in playing mobile legends in terms of social and
academic attitudes?
4. What are the interventions that need to be maintained, formulated and
implemented to respond on this issue.
Guiding Principles for Formulating Research Questions
• Be guided with the acronym “SMART” (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic
and Timebound)
• Base your research questions in your RRLs.
• State your research questions in such a way that they include all dependent and
independent variables referred to by the theories, principles, or concepts underlying
your research work.
• Establish a specific connection between the research questions and the problem or
topic.
• Avoid asking the research questions that are answerable by yes or no.
• Develop research questions in such a way that can arouse your curiosity and
surprise you with your discoveries or findings
• Research questions should be preceded by one question expressing the main
problem of the research

Scope and Delimitations in Qualitative Research

The scope of the study refers to the parameters under which the study will be
operating. The problem you seek to resolve will fit within certain parameters.

The limitations are matters and occurrences that emerge in a research study which are
out of researcher’s control. They limit the extensity to which a study can go, and
sometimes influence the result and conclusions that can be get. Your study might have
access to only certain people in an organization certain documents, and certain data.
These are what we call limitations.

The delimitations of the study are those characteristics that emerge from limitations in
the scope of the paper (boundaries) and by conscious exclusionary and inclusionary
decisions made during the development of the study. Unlike limitations, delimitations
result from narrow and particular choices of a researcher. Among these are the choice
of objectives and questions, variable of interest, the choice of theoretical dimensions
that were adopted, the paradigm, methodology and choice of participants

Example:
The study dealing with reasons of students dropping out from school makes use of the
Case study design. The respondents of the study are the drop-out students from Candon
City Division both Senior High School and Junior High School. The study was conducted
from the month of December 2016 until the second semester of March 2017. Students
who refused to be interviewed are not considered participants of the study
Benefits of Research

Benefits for Learners

• Internal Motivation. Learners can develop a sense of legacy and fulfillment for the
recognition and achievement for conducting research.
• External Motivation. Learners report that they are always inspired by teachers
whom they perceive to be masters in their field and who transfers learning with
excitement and enthusiasm for the subject.
• Active learning. Learners tend to learn most when they are actively involved in
improving their skill set and knowledge.
• Skills development. Through research-based learning learners can develop the
intellectual skills of critical analysis and also valuable transferable skills such as
individual, group work, time and resource management and data organizing Kinds of
Beneficiaries
• Primary- beneficiaries, who are critical to either the success of the project or in
moving the project forward, for example project partners (short term)
• Secondary – beneficiaries are not serious to the project but in order to gain impact
in the medium term it would be valuable if they were aware of any progress.
• Tertiary – beneficiaries who are not included in the project but have the potential
for more long-t erm effects, i.e., utilizing the outputs from the secondary users (like
practical products).

I WANT TO BE TALL SOMEDAY: Height Aspirations Among Young People in the Philippines

When the clock strikes midnight on New Year’s Eve in the Philippines, many children jump
as high as they can, believing (with their parents) that it would make them grow taller. In
my ethnography, I found many other practices that are believed to boost children’s
statures when they grow -up, from sleeping in the afternoon to taking popular growth
supplements that are overtly marketed with claims that it can make children grow tall.

What aspirations are embedded in the desire for tallness that informs these practices? I
draw from an “ethnography of height” in the city of Puerto Princesa, Western Philippines
to look at different domains in society where height “matters”, including basketball games
and beauty pageants that privilege tall bodies; jobs that explicitly or implicitly demand
“height requirements”; public nutrition programs that use children’s heights as an index of
both individual and national well-being; and the everyday lives of the youths with whom I
hung out.

These materialities of height in the Philippines, I argue, make it valuable “asset” for young
people, and makes explicable young people’s aspirations of tallness. But although height
emerges as a form of what I call “body capital”, there is also a “becoming” in the aspiration
of tallness (Biel and Locke, 2010), and therein, I argue, lies the efficacy of height-making
practices. Moreover, the desire for tallness can be read as an idiom for young people’s
desire for better lives.

Guide Questions:
1. What is the significance of the study to the following?
Readers: Every reader will know that not all ways that they know to grow taller are true
Researchers: Every researchers will know that not all ways that they see on internet are
true.
Community: People in community will know that not all ways that they learn from their
ancestors are all true
Lesson 3 Writing Statement of the Problem

Jumpstart

Directions: Read the statements carefully. Write T if the statement is True and F if the
statement if False. Write your answer on your answer sheet.

T 1. Formulate your question not only based from the main problem but also within the focus
of your research title.
F 2. Ask research questions that are answerable with “yes” or no” and use the “how” questions
only in a quantitative research.
T 3. Let the set of research questions or sub-problems be preceded by one question expressing
the main problem of the research.
T 4. Formulate research questions that can arouse your curiosity and surprise you with
discoveries or findings. This is true for research questions asked about a problem that was
never investigated upon the study.
F 5. Your research method should be less important to you than your research question. What
you are studying should be more important than how you are studying it.
F 6. The statement of the problem is traditionally written in the interrogative form. The modern
formulation of this is in descriptive form.
T 7. Let the set of research questions or sub-problems be preceded by many questions
expressing the main problem of the research.
T 8. The other part of the statement of the problem is the particular or specific questions, which
are detailed questions that the study will give solution to.
T 9. Convincing solutions to research problems or answers to research questions stem from
their alignment with what the world already knows or what previous research studies have
already discovered about the research problem or topic.
T 10. One of the two main parts of the statement is the general or main question of the study,
which means the main problem of the study

Guidelines in Formulating Statement of the Problem

• Formulate research questions that can arouse your curiosity and surprise you
with discoveries or findings.
• Establish a clear relation between the research questions and the problem or
topic.
• Base your research questions on your RRL because existing published works
help you get good background knowledge of the research problem and help
you gauge the people’s current understanding or unfamiliarity about the
topic, as well as the extent of their knowledge and interest in it. Convincing
solutions to research problems or answers to research questions stem from
their alignment with what the world already knows or what previous research
studies have already discovered about the research problem or topic.
• Be guided with the acronym SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic
and time-bound) in formulating the research questions. Applying SMART, you
must deal with exact answers and observable things, determine the extent or
limit of the data collected, be aware of the timeframe and completion period
of the study.
• Let the set of research questions or sub-problems be preceded by one
question expressing the main problem of the research.
• Avoid asking research questions that are answerable with “yes” or “no” and
use the “how” questions only in a quantitative research.
• Formulate your question not only based from the main problem but also
within the focus of your research title
