Defining Research

Research is a systematic process of collecting, analyzing, and


interpreting information in order to increase our understanding
of a phenomenon about which we are interested or concerned.

Research is an investigation or experimentation aimed at the


discovery and interpretation of facts, revision of accepted
theories or laws in the light of new facts, or practical
application of such new or revised theories or laws. It is also a
practice of collecting information about a particular subject.

Research provides the best solution to some of the world


problems and also enhance the knowledge of the researchers.
It can give explanations to certain questions stated in the
research problem. Through the explanations, it serves as a tool
for building knowledge and for facilitating new learning.

Research also introduces new ideas, helps the researchers


identify problems and appropriate solutions in new ways and
provide new framework to guide thinking and action. It
informs action, proves a theory and contributes to develop
knowledge in a field or study. Therefore, it understands various
issues and increases public awareness.

Research is a systematic and objective creation of knowledge.

Why do RESEARCH?

1 Add to existing knowledge.

2 Improve practice.

3 Inform policies

4 Solve problems, not emergencies.

Preparing for Research

Focus. An ill-structured problem demands consideration of


diverse perspectives.

Decide on a topic. Think-aloud, asks probing questions,


monitors and encourages participants to decide a topic.

Understanding the problem. This will include clarifications of


misconceptions and possibilities.

Design on the problem. This is the final stage done to address


problems within manageable scales and extend their learning
pathways.

The following are the things that may be considered before


starting the research activity:

1. A problem that is most interesting to you

2. Existing problems in the class/school/campus which one


may want to solve
3. Existing needs of the community or society

4. Area of interest, specialization or event from related


field.

5. Prevailing theories and philosophy

An Inquiry is a method that has the aim of extending


knowledge, undertaking doubt, or solving a problem. A theory
of inquiry is an interpretation of the various types of inquiry
and action of the ways that each type of inquiry attains its aim.

Brainstorming is a way of inquiring ideas that will help you to


develop concepts and focusing techniques by asking questions
and knowing the interests of the persons involved in the said
issues. The potential ideas can be visualized for interpretations.

Inquiry-It is a question which you ask to get some information.


It is the process of asking about or investigating something to
find out more about it.
Investigation-It is a proper inquiry or efficient study.

Immersion-It is the process of learning a skill by using nothing


else but that skill. It is the fact of becoming completely involved
in something.
Research Study-Research is like exploring things to come up
with the best idea/s to respond to the needs of society.

Concept - It is a conceptual representation abstract objects, or


abilities that make up the fundamental building blocks of
thoughts and beliefs
Background of the Problem
The background of your study will provide context to the
information discussed throughout the research process. The
background information of your study may include both
important and relevant studies.

Furthermore, the background of the study will deliberate your


statement of the problem, rationale, and research questions. It
links the introduction to your research study and guarantees a
logical flow of ideas. Thus, it helps readers understand and
comprehend your reasons and explanations for conducting the
study.

Conceptual Framework
A conceptual framework is an analytical tool with several
variations and contexts that can be applied in different
categories of work where an overall picture is needed in order
to come up with the desired goal. It is necessary to make
conceptual and theoretical distinctions and organize ideas.
Strong and resilient conceptual frameworks capture and
apprehend something real and do this in a way that is easy to
remember and apply.

The theoretical and conceptual frameworks provide evidence


of academic standards and procedures that validates the
authenticity of the study. They also proposed an explanation
and clarification of why the study is relevant and how the
researcher expects to fill the gap in the
Literature.

How to make a Conceptual Framework

As written by Maria Magher, A conceptual framework is a bit


like a recipe or a blueprint. It provides an outline of how you
plan to conduct the research of your thesis, but it goes further
than that by also positioning your work within the larger field of
research.
