IDENTIFYING THE INQUIRY
&
STATING THE PROBLEM
JAIKE A. PASCUA
DO YOU “MAZE” ME?
WAYS TO WIN?
STRATEGIZE
REACH THE END GOAL
FIND AWAY
Starting a research investigation is similar
to embarking a journey through the maze.
There may be different routes to the exit point, but the
key is where to begin
LET’S GET STARTED!
+
KEY QUESTIONS
1. Where should a research begin?
2. How is a topic chosen?
RESEARCHER’S INTEREST
DO YOU KNOW
WHERE TO
BEGIN?
SOURCES OF INTEREST
DAILY LIFE EXPERIENCES
• Ex. Fishermen could have developed the most effective
way to grow fish because they are exposed to these
things.
ACADEMIC READINGS
• Can stimulate one’s interest to explore a particular topic.
PERSONAL HOBBIES
• Ex. Survey the views of people about a certain issue
because they enjoy doing so
ATTENTION-CATCHING SITUATION
• Researchers can formulate questions as to how this thing
became possible, how that thing is able to do those, etc.
IDENTIFYING A RESEARCH
TOPIC
1.Reading books, research articles, and
other professional publications
2. Asking helps from experts
3.Observing things for some experiences
about this interest
RROWING DOWN A RESEARCH TOP
REMINDERS:
• What is current and what is new;
• Recommendations of researchers who have
conducted similar studies;
• What has already been studied; and
• New ways of gathering data

GIVE IT A TRY!
1. Look for a partner.
2. Think of a broad topic that interests you (e.g., animals,
ICT, games, medicine, etc.)
3. From this broad topic, think of a possible smaller topic
connected to this broad topic.
4. Make this topic more specific.
5. Ask questions regarding the specific you have chosen.
6. Use the inverted pyramid to concretize your idea.

RESEARCH PROBLEM
A statement about an area of concern, a
condition to be improved upon, a difficulty to
be eliminated, or a troubling question that
exists in scholarly literature, theory, or
practice that points to the need for a
deliberate
meaningful understanding and
investigation.
CHARACTERISTICS OF A RESEARCH
PROBLEM
1. A research problem is not just answerable by yes or
no. It should imply that explanations and
justifications regarding the true situation or
observation are required.
2. It implies relationship between the variables of the
study.
3. The problem should be stated in clear,
unambiguous manner.
4. A researchable problem must imply interpretation
and analysis of data.
RESEARCH PROBLEM
It is what the
researchers aim to
answer later on as
they go through the
research endeavor.
WORK AT HOME 
1 whole yellow paper
1. Look for at least 5 research
TITLES.
2. Identify whether each can lead to
good research problems. Explain
your answer.
CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION OF A GOOD
RESEARCH PROBLEM

RESEARCH PROBLEM SHOULD
BE:
S • SPECIFIC
R
• REALISTIC
T • TIME-BOUND
M
• MEASURABLE
A
• ATTAINABLE
RESEARC
H TITLE
RESEARCH TITLE
• Give weight and reputation to the research paper.
• In QUALITATIVE research, a researcher starts with a
tentative title. As the study progresses, the context of
the study and the manner of the research respondents
are revealed. The highlights of the research are then
included in the final title.
