Lesson 1
In writing a Science Investigatory Project (SIP), the title will serve as
an overview. The title consists of the information of the SIP. There are
guidelines to follow in the formulation of the research title as well as
indicators that a formulated research title is a good research title.
Guidelines in the formulation of SIP title:
1. The title must contain the subject matter or the research problem,
setting or research locale, respondents and participants of the study and
time or period when the study was conducted.
2. The title should be concise, not too broad nor too narrow.
3. The title should be composed of 12-15 words excluding the articles
4. The terms such as “An assessment of”, “An investigation of”, “An
evaluation of”, “A study of” and other similar terms should be avoided.
This is already implied in the study and mentioned in the scope and
limitation.
5. Title which is more than one line should be written in an inverted
pyramid in the title page, and should be written in capital letters.
6. The title should not be too long and too detailed.
7. Scientific names shall be italicized.
