PRACTICAL RESEARCH 2 QUARTER 1 - MODULE 2 IDENTIFYING THE INQUIRY AND STATING THE PROBLEM EDNA ISAAC DEAUNA  OBJECTIVE At the end of this module, you should be able to: 1. Design a research useful in daily life (CS_RS12-Id-e-1); 2. Write research title (CS_RS12-Id-e-2); 3. Describe background of research (CS_RS12-Id-e-3); 4. State research questions (CS_RS12-Id-e-4); 5. Indicate scope and delimitation of study (CS_RS12-Id-e-5); 6. Present written statement of the problem (CS_RS12-Id-e-7);  LESSON 1 DESIGNING RESEARCH TOPIC INTRODUCTION The first and foremost step in the research is selecting and properly defining a research problem. Hence, choosing a topic must undergo proper and thorough planning and designing. The four basic steps in designing a research topic are the following: (1) choose a broad topic, (2) do preliminary research, (3) define the problem, and (4) refine the question. Guided with these steps, a student researcher can certainly jumpstart a quantitative research project. STEPS TO GUIDE US IN CHOOSING A QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH TOPIC RELATED TO OUR CHOSEN FIELD. STEPS TO GUIDE US IN CHOOSING A QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH TOPIC RELATED TO OUR CHOSEN FIELD. STEPS TO GUIDE US IN CHOOSING A QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH TOPIC RELATED TO OUR CHOSEN FIELD. 2. Do a preliminary research. The second step is much more time-consuming. Once you have chosen a broad topic, you need to have a better understanding of it by reading some more articles, journals, and related research studies. STEPS TO GUIDE US IN CHOOSING A QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH TOPIC RELATED TO OUR CHOSEN FIELD.  LESSON 2 RESEARCH TITLE INTRODUCTION A research study title is the very first thing a reader comes across when searching for scientific literature. It is a concise description of the content of the research study containing the fewest possible words, yet adequate to describe the contents of the paper for a simple reason that we do not want to mislead the readers. After conceptualizing a most probable research topic, drafting the title early in the research process helps in keeping your focus on the subject. THE FOLLOWING ARE THE BASIC GUIDELINES IN MAKING A RESEARCH STUDY TITLE: THE FOLLOWING STEPS CAN GUIDE YOU IN WRITING YOUR RESEARCH TITLE:  LESSON 3 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY INTRODUCTION  LESSON 4 RESEARCH QUESTIONS NATURE OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH PROBLEM  RESEARCH PROBLEM AND RESEARCH QUESTIONS The research questions help clarify and specify the research problem. They are also considered as sub- problems of your research problem and are informative in nature. They specify the method of collecting and analyzing data, and the type of data to be collected when exploring a quantitative research problem.  LESSON 5 SCOPE AND DELIMITATION  SCOPE AND DELIMITATION The scope specifies the coverage of your study such as variables, population or participant, and timeline. Delimitation cites factors of your study that are not included or excluded or those you will not deal in your study. In this section of your research paper, you may also state the reasons why you did not include the variables. A clearly written scope and delimitation of the study will make it definitely easier to answer questions which are related or not related to your study. THANK YOU
