PRELIMINARY: ABOUT THE SUBJECT Practical Research 1- deals with qualitative research design Practical Research 2- deals with quantitative research design o PR 1 and 2 are both applied subjects o Core subjects- are subjects that all SHS students will take. o Applied subjects- are subjects that all SHS students will take but designed to focus on specifics applications of lesson depending on track or strand. o Specialized subjects- subjects are unique to the track or strand. Research Project- specialized subject for STEM Inquiries, Investigations, and Immersion- applied/core subject depending on the school Research Designs A. Qualitative -blank spot (generate new idea or theory) -non-numerical -interviews using open questions B. Quantitative -blind spot (acceptability or rejectability of idea or literature) -employs statistical operations -Statistic is used to summarize, describe patterns, relationships, and connections through control study CHAPTER 1: The Problem and Its Related Literature Introduction- is a careful presentation of the importance of the problem. It follows the T.I.O.C pattern. Review of Related Studies and Literature In reviewing RL, RS and RT use SEC approach SEC Approach State the RL/RS/RT- introduce Explain- summarize Contextualize- relating/connecting A. Review of Related Theories and Theoretical Framework Theoretical Framework- draws support from time-tested theories that embody the findings of many researchers on why and how particular phenomenon occur. B. Review of Related Literature, Review of Related Studies Conceptual and Operational Framework Conceptual Framework- maps out the linkages of such theory or previous knowledge by means of simplifying the variables on a subject of research. Operational Framework- a.k.a IPO (input, process, and output), to be used on capstone/product-based studies. Hypothesis- is a conjectural statement of the relation between two or more variables. It is a tentative or temporary answer to a research problem. Null Hypothesis (Ho) Hypothesis of no difference, correlation, significance Alternative Hypothesis (H1) -there is a difference between groups -there is a relationship between the risk factor or treatment and occurrence of the outcome Statement of the Problem (SOP)- heart of any research paper. A problem statement must have the following characteristics: Has 1 general problem and 3 or more specific questions It should ask about a relationship between two or more variables. It should be possible to collect data to answer the question asked Significance of the Study (SOTS)- point that the researcher described who will benefit and what benefits can be derived from the findings of the study. The writer, under this section, tries to sell its importance to the panel or to the funding agency. CHAPTER 2: Research Methodology Methodology- covers the description of the procedures used to conduct the study. Research Method- is a strategy to implement the plan Three Types of Research Design 1. Quantitative 2. Qualitative 3. Mixed Method 4. Time and motion logs 5. Observation form 6. Codebook B. Subject-completed instruments 1. Questionnaires 2. Checklist 3. Rating Scale 4. Aptitude Test/Exam 5. Sociometric devices Frequently Used Data Collecti on Techniques 1. Interview- structured, unstructured, and semi-structured 2. Documentary analysis- Analyzing data from sources or documents. 3. Observation- Watching what people do or Monitoring of laboratory procedures. 4. Questionnaire- structured and unstructured Types of Questions 1. Yes or No Dichotomous 2. Recognition- choices, possible answers are provided 3. Completion- fill-in the blanks with necessary information 4. Coding- numbers are assigned to choices (stat) 5. Subjective- free to give educated opinions 6. Combination- the use of two or more types of questions Data Gathering Procedure- observing the proper etiquette Data collection- is a systematic process of gathering observations or measurements data collection allows you to gain first-hand knowledge and original insights into your research problem. Before you begin collecting data, you need to consider: The aim of the research- intro statement The dissemination of tool- Google Form link The methods and procedures you will do to collect- letter Statistical Treatment A. 1ST STEP (Descriptive Statistics) Measure of central value- MEAN, MEDIAN and MODE, measure of dispersion, location B. 2nd STEP (Inferential Statistics) Correlation and Regression Chapter 3: Presentation, Analysis, and Interpretation of Data Data - is a variable (in quantitative study, it always numerical in nature) -it can be nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio a. Primary- comes from primary sources such as individual persons, organized groups, living organism, man-made material things, phenomenon b. Secondary- comes from secondary sources such as books, articles, published & unpublished theses, manuscripts Presentation- tables of data Analysis- description of the data Interpretation- going back with the RL and RS Thematic Approach- approach that organizes subject matter around unifying themes Chapter 4: Findings, Conclusions, and Recommendations Summary of Findings Reiterate the research method, sample size, research locale, stat treatment used Restatement of main problem and sub-problems Express whether the null hypothesis has been rejected or not. Conclusions Re-statement of FINDINGS but in a concise & direct manner Disclose the potential contribution of the findings in the body of knowledge Must be understood by non-researchers by avoiding too much data. Recommendations Revisit the SOTS and address your recommended improvements based on your findings and conclusion
