I. Introduction (Time Frame: 50 minutes)
What is Research?
Research is a process of systematic inquiry that entails collection of data; documentation of critical information; and analysis and
interpretation of that data/information, in accordance with suitable methodologies set by specific professional fields and academic
disciplines.
Research is conducted to evaluate the validity of a hypothesis or an interpretive framework; to assemble a body of substantive
knowledge and findings for sharing them in appropriate manners; and to generate questions for further inquiries.
As a Grade 10 student, you are expected to create a basic research. But before planning and coming up with the different parts of
your study, it is just appropriate to be familiar with some of the used terms in research writing. Although some terms you will meet while
researching are not listed below, these jargons are likewise the common and useful ones to know and learn beforehand. Through this, you
will become ready once you finally use them as you investigate for some problems or issues of your interest.

DEFINITION
A brief overview of a research study
Conducted to generate knowledge that influences or improves practice
Research that tests theories
A variable, such as anxiety, may be defined as a feeling of uneasiness
The building blocks of theories
The basic, dictionary meaning
In experiments, the one that does not get the treatment
A type of research design that depicts a relationship between variables, but not necessarily one
of cause -effect
Information used as a basis for reasoning, discussion, or calculation.
It addresses how the study will be narrowed in scope.
The concept that the researcher is most interested in understanding
Research design that describes “what is” e.g. a survey
A research design used to find “cause-effect” relationships the “effect of…on…”
The one that gets the treatment
How generalizable the results are as it concerns other populations and locations
Variables that may influence or contaminate the data
Groups under study are very different or varied.
Groups that are very similar
The concept being studied that usually indicates the influence or cause; the one that the
researcher is manipulating
A statement written by the researcher that states the relationship among or between variables
The basis for the qualitative research approach
Depends on premises and is the basis for the quantitative research approach
The extent to which a study measures what it is supposed to measure (accuracy within a study)
Establishes the scope, context and significance of the research to be conducted.
identify potential weaknesses of the study.
Averages e.g. the mean)
The arithmetic average
The middle where half the scores fall above, half below, eliminates the influence of outliers
Systematic approach to the conduct of a process. It includes steps of procedure, application of
techniques, systems of analysis, and the modes of inquiry employed by a discipline.
The score that occurs the most
The proposition, to be tested statistically, that the experimental intervention has "no effect,"
meaning that the treatment and control groups will not differ as a result of the intervention.
Investigators usually hope that the data will demonstrate some effect from the intervention, thus
allowing the investigator to reject the null hypothesis.
How a term is used in a study
Also called respondents, their characteristics and responses are the object of study in research

D. Development (Time Frame: 45 minutes)
Activity 1: What is Research?
Direction: Determine further the meaning and function of research by reading the paragraphs below. In doing so, arrange
the jumbled letters of some terms to understand research even better.
When researchers are interested in examining a problem using a scientific approach, it is said that they are doing a
(1.) S A R R E E C H. The people who are being studied are called (2.) B U J E C T S. The person who oversees the research is
called the (3.) P R I N C E L I P investigator. The building blocks of theories are called (4.) C E P C O N T S.
An abstract generalization that presents a systematic representation about relationships among phenomena is called
a (5.) H E R O Y T. The concepts that are studied are called (6.) B A R I A L E V. The concept that is being studied that usually
that usually indicates the influence or cause is called the (7.) D E N T I N P E E N D variable. The concept that the researcher is
most interested in understanding is called the (8.) T E E N N P E D D variable. Variables that may influence or contaminate the
data are called (9.) E O U T S X A E R N variables. If the group that is being studied is very different or varied, the group is said to
be (10.) G E N E S H E R O T E O U while groups that are very similar are called (11.) H O O M N E E G O U S groups. When
studying variables, definitions must be clarified. A variable such as anxiety may be defined as a feeling of uneasiness; this is
called a (12.) C E P T A L C U O N definition. To measure anxiety, the State-Traite Anxiety Scale might be used.
A (13.) S Y S I T H E P H O is a statement written by the researcher that states the relationship among or between
variables. There are two major categories for research designs. One design, the (14.) Q U A I N T V A I E T T approach uses data
that has numerical representation or values. The second design, (15.) Q U A I L V E A T T I, uses narrative data. (16.) D E D U C E
V I T reasoning is the basis for quantitative approach. The bond or connection between two variables is called a (17.) O R I E N
T A L H I P S. Research that is conducted to generate knowledge that influences or improves practice is called (18.) D E A L I P P
research. Research that tests theories is known as (19.) A S C I B research.
