research assignment. You will learn everything about conducting
research step by step. To start, let us find out how well you know doing
researches.
Specifically. after working on this module, you should be able to share your
knowledge and research experiences.

that the sentence is true about research. Put a cross (X) if you think that it is not. Write your
answers on your notebook.
_____1. Research begins with a problem.
_____2. Research is merely gathering information.
_____3. Research is transporting facts from one place to another.
_____4. Research is rummaging around for hard-to-locate information.
_____5. Research is a creative and systematic work undertaken to get additional
information.
YOUR INITIAL TASK
Mind Map
Directions: Draw a mind map about your insights or knowledge in doing research. Follow the
instructions below.
1. Start at the center of a long bond paper turned sideways. (You have the freedom to
spread out in all directions and to express it more freely and naturally.)
2. Use colors throughout.(Colors add extra vibrancy and life to your mind map.)
3. Use an image or picture for your central idea.
4. Connect your main branches to the central image and connect your second-and
third-level branches to the first and second levels. (Link two to three things/ideas
together. If you connect the branches, you will understand and remember a lot more
easily.)
5. Make your branches curved rather than straight-lined.
6. Use one key word per line.
7. Use images throughout. (Image is also worth a thousand words.)
Your output will be assessed using the rubrics.
