Kinds of Research

(Calmorin, 2016)

1. Basic Research
2. Applied Research
3. Developmental Research
Kinds of Research
(Calmorin, 2016)

Basic Research
- discover basic truths or principles
- add to the body of scientific knowledge by
exploring the unknown and extend the
boundaries
- no immediate practical utility and usefulness
or value to man
- result is theoretical knowledge
Pure basic research is experimental and
theoretical work undertaken to acquire new
knowledge without looking for long-term
benefits other than the advancement of
knowledge.

Strategic basic research is experimental and


theoretical work undertaken to acquire new
knowledge directed into specified broad areas in
the expectation of useful discoveries. It provides
the broad base of knowledge necessary for the
solution of recognized practical problems.
Kinds of Research
(Calmorin, 2016)

Applied Research
- seeking new application of scientific
knowledge of developing a new system, a new
procedure, a new device or a new method in
order to solve a problem.
- produces knowledge of practical use
Applied research is an original work undertaken
primarily to acquire new knowledge with a
specific application in view. It is undertaken
either to determine possible uses for the
findings of basic research or to determine new
ways of achieving some specific and
predetermined objectives.
Kinds of Research
(Calmorin, 2016)

Developmental Research
- decision-oriented research
- involves the application of scientific methods
in response to an immediate need
- finds practical applications of the theoretical
knowledge to produce useful products
Experimental development is a systematic
work, using existing knowledge gained from
research or practical experiences that is directed
to producing new materials, products or devices,
to installing new processes, systems and
services, or to improving substantially those
already produced or installed.

CHAPTER I

THE PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING


Chapter I
Introduction
(Background of the Study)
This section should include a brief description of
the nature of the thesis; a statement of the
problem, and the rationale for pursuing the study,
indicating the specific expected output and
identified beneficiaries.
This refers to the overview of the project discussing
the factors that lead to the conceptualization of the
problem.
Statement of the Problem
The problems that trigger the study.
List of QUESTIONS you intend or hope to answer.
(enumerated, specific, brief and concise)

The general and specific objectives, which the


study aims to accomplish and which the
research proponents hope to achieve should be
carefully contained in this section.
Statement of the Problem:
..Specific

..Measurable

..Achievable

..Realistic

..Time-bounded
Statement of the Problem:
.. define the purpose
• do not use a problem in research as a ruse for
achieving self-enlightenment
• a problem whose sole purpose is to compare two
sets of data is not a suitable research problem
• finding a coefficient of correlation between two sets
of data to show a relationship between those data
sets is not acceptable as a problem for research
• problems that result in a yes or no answer are not
suitable for research
• STATE THE PROBLEM CLEARLY AND
COMPLETELY
.. always state the problem in a complete
grammatical sentence in as few words as
possible."

.. be specific

.. limit areas studied so that the study is of


manageable size
• THINK, CONSIDER, AND ESTIMATE
.. be sure of the feasibility of your study

• SAY PRECISELY WHAT YOU MEAN


.. say precisely what you mean in your
research problem
.. problem is stated in the very first words
• EDITING
.. choose your words carefully
.. clarify your writing
.. rewrite, rewrite, rewrite
.. express thought fully with as few words as
possible
.. use a thesaurus
.. keep your sentences short
.. look at each thought as it stands on the paper
.. be alert to modifications
SUB-PROBLEMS
.. most problems too large or complex
.. subparts of main problem called sub-problems

CHARACTERISTICS OF SUBPROBLEMS
.. each sub-problem should be a completely
researchable unit
.. each sub-problem must be clearly tied to the
interpretation of the data
.. Sub-problems must add up to the totality of
the problem
.. beware of unrealistic goals
HOW TO IDENTIFY SUBPROBLEMS
.. begin with the problem itself
.. write the problem, then box off the sub-problem
areas

EVERY PROBLEM NEEDS FURTHER DELINEATION


.. eliminate any possibility of misunderstanding
.. give full disclosure of what you intend to do and
not do
.. give the meanings of all terms used
.. state the assumptions
.. state the hypotheses and/or research question

Significance of the Study
State here the impact, relevance of the study,
prospect for economic gain.
This refers to the contribution of the study to:
a. National Goals and Plans
b. National Policies
c. Emerging Realities
d. Regional (local goals/ plans)
e. Community Goals/Plans
Scope and Delimitation
This refers to the scope or inclusive frame of
reference, as well as procedural limits of the
study.

Definition of Terms
This refers to the conceptual and operational
meanings of the variables used in the study.
Examples:
(Definition of Terms)

Students. This refers to enrolled pupils


undergoing formal instruction. This will be the
respondents (subject) in this study.

Students. This refers to enrolled pupils


undergoing formal instruction. In this study, this
refers to the Senior High School Students of
NDDU.
Examples:
(Definition of Terms)

Study Habits. This refers to the manner in which


students consistently use to learn the lessons in
a particular subject in school. This will be one of
the dependent (independent) variables in this
study.
REMINDERS:
- Tenses should be in FUTURE TENSE (proposal)
i.e. is, are, will be
- Cite sources: (family name, year); (website)
