    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.
