Study Notes
Formulating a Research Problem
- The primary focus when formulating a research problem is to identify a gap in knowledge or a practical issue that needs to be addressed.
Action Research Problem
- The problem of action research should primarily be related to the teacher-researcher's own practice or professional context.
Inferring the Research Problem
- The researcher infers the research problem by identifying a discrepancy or inconsistency between what is currently happening and what should be happening.
Indicating the Existence of a Problem
- When indicating the existence of a problem to be studied, the researcher should clarify the significance and relevance of the problem, its impact, and its consequences.
Method for Formulating a Research Problem
- In action research, the research problem should be formulated using an iterative and cyclical process, involving reflection, exploration, and analysis.
Consequences of Poor Problem Formulation
- If the problem is not formulated in a specific, realistic, measurable, and achievable way, it may lead to a lack of focus, vague results, and ineffective solutions.
Consequences of Inadequate Problem Statement
- Formulating the problem in a very brief paragraph that does not convince the reader of the existence of a problem may lead to a lack of credibility, insufficient justification, and inadequate support for the research.
