Identifying the Inquiry and Stating the Problem
- 1. IDENTIFYING THE INQUIRY & STATING THE PROBLEM D AP H N I E S . M O N T E V E R D E , L P T
- 2. DO YOU “MAZE” ME?
- 3. WAYS TO WIN? STRATEGIZE REACH THE END GOAL FIND A WAY 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
- 4. LET’S GET STARTED! + KEY QUESTIONS 1. Where should a research begin? 2. How is a topic chosen? RESEARCHER’S INTEREST
- 5. DO YOU KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN?
- 6. SOURCES OF INTEREST • Ex. Fishermen could have developed the most effective way to grow fish because they are exposed to these things. DAILY LIFE EXPERIENCES • Can stimulate one’s interest to explore a particular topic. ACADEMIC READINGS • Ex. Survey the views of people about a certain issue because they enjoy doing so PERSONAL HOBBIES • Researchers can formulate questions as to how this thing became possible, how that thing is able to do those, etc. ATTENTION-CATCHING SITUATION
- 7. 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
- 8. NARROWING 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
- 9. NARROW IT DOWN! Health services Malnourished children Southeast Asia Last 10 years Historical
- 10. NARROW IT DOWN! Housing projects Informal settlers Philippines Last 6 years economic
- 11. 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.
- 13. 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 meaningful understanding and deliberate investigation.
- 14. CHARACTERISTICS OF A RESEARCH PROBLEM1. 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.
- 15. RESEARCH PROBLEM It is what the researchers aim to answer later on as they go through the research endeavor.
- 16. 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.
- 17. CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION OF A GOOD RESEARCH PROBLEM NOVEL INTERESTING PRACTICALINNOVATIVE COST- EFFECTIVE
- 18. RESEARCH PROBLEM SHOULD BE: S • SPECIFIC R • REALISTIC T • TIME-BOUND M • MEASURABLE A • ATTAINABLE
- 19. RESEARC H TITLE
- 20. 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.
- 21. ELEMENTS OF A RESEARCH TITLE• PURPOSE • Why do I want to conduct this study? AIM • SUBJECT MATTER • What do I want to study about? TOPIC • LOCALE • Where do I conduct the study? PLACE • How long will it take for me to finish my study? PERIOD • From whom will my data come from or be collected? Population/Responde nts
