Research is a systematic process of discovery and advancement of human knowledge (Gratton & Jones, 2009, p.4).
According to Theodorson and Theodorson (1969) research refers to any honest attempt to study a problem systematically or to add to mans knowledge of a problem.
According to Saunders et al. (2007) research is something that people undertake to find out things in a systematic way, thereby increasing their knowledge
According to Waltz and Bansell (1981). Research is a systematic, formal, rigorous and precise process employed to gain solutions to problems or to discover and interpret new facts and relationships.
According to Kothari (2006). Research is a pursuit of trust with the help of study, observation, comparison and experiment, the search for knowledge through objective and systematic method of finding solutions to a problem.
According to Payton (1979). Research is the process of looking for a specific question in an organized, objective, reliable way.
Kerlinger (1873). Research is a systematic controlled, empirical and critical investigation of hypothetical propositions about the presumed relations among natural phenomena.

This document discusses research and the research process. It begins by defining research and distinguishing between applied and basic research, providing examples of each. It then discusses common research objectives such as describing a topic, distinguishing between variables, and explaining relationships. The document outlines the typical steps in the research process, including defining the problem, reviewing literature, formulating hypotheses, designing the study, collecting and analyzing data, and reporting findings. It also discusses types of research such as qualitative vs. quantitative and conceptual vs. empirical. Overall, the document provides an overview of key concepts and processes involved in conducting research.
The document discusses formulating a research problem. It states that a research problem is a question that a researcher wants to answer, and depends on factors like their knowledge and interests. The formulation of a research problem is the first and most important step of the research process, as it forms the foundation for the rest of the study. Sources of research problems include people, existing problems, programs, and phenomena in the world. When selecting a research problem, researchers must consider factors like their level of interest, the scope of the problem, their ability to measure concepts, and ethical issues involved.
The document discusses research methodology for a study on improving 4th grade students' ability to solve math word problems. It proposes using action research with both quantitative and qualitative data collection methods. Quantitative data will be collected before and after an intervention to measure students' growth. Qualitative data, such as an anonymous survey, will gather students' responses about the benefits of methods taught. The research aims to effectively improve students' understanding of word problems and determine the perceived benefits of using a graphic organizer strategy.

Qualitative research studies phenomena in their natural settings. By using the natural settings, this design interprets phenomena in terms of the meanings that people bring to them. Qualitative research aims to get a better understanding through firsthand experience because subjects share thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Qualitative research involves the collection of a variety of empirical materials. These materials include, but are not limited to, case study, personal experience, life story, interviews, observations, historical perspectives, interactional, and visual texts. All of this information becomes data that describe routine as well as problematic moments with the meanings these moments have in individuals' lives.
Often, the qualitative approach is used as the initial research study in an area of interest because it will help to explore and define the phenomena. By gaining an understanding of underlying reasons, opinions, and motivations, it provid ...

The overarching goal of Action Research (AR) is to collaborate with stakeholders and
participants in an effort to empower and effect social change. AR can be considered a
continuum ranging from appreciative inquiry to pure participatory research: appreciative
and cooperative inquiry (Heron, 1996; Reason & Rowan, 1981, Stowell & West, 1991,
Torbert, 1976, 2004), action research or action science (Argyris, 1970, 1980, 1994; Argyris,

This document provides an introduction and overview of research methods. It outlines the aim and objectives of the course which are to give participants an appreciation of the research process and enable them to describe research, prepare proposals, design instruments, collect and analyze data, and write reports. It defines research and describes the importance of research being systematic, logical, empirical, and replicable. It also discusses the different types of research including basic research, applied research, and evaluation research. The document outlines the overall research process and covers topics such as identifying research areas, the qualities of a good topic, research philosophies including epistemology and axiology, and the different methodologies of quantitative and qualitative research.
This document defines research and outlines different types of research. Research is a systematic investigation to discover answers and contribute to existing knowledge. There are two main types: pure research aims to develop and test theories while applied research solves practical problems. Research can also be classified by its objectives (descriptive, correlational, explanatory, exploratory), application (pure vs applied), and approach (structured/quantitative vs unstructured/qualitative). The key characteristics of valid research are that it is controlled, rigorous, systematic, valid, empirical, and able to withstand critical analysis.
This document discusses different types of research categorized by purpose and method. There are five types based on purpose: basic research aims to advance knowledge; applied research solves practical problems; evaluation research assesses programs; research and development creates products; and action research applies findings to specific problems. Research can also be categorized by method: analytical research explains phenomena in-depth; descriptive research determines current states; experimental research manipulates variables to find causes; and qualitative research observes natural settings over time.

involved in the research activities and the project solves a practice or problem that impacts
the participants (Springer, 2007).

This document provides an introduction to research methodology. It discusses the aims of research methodology which are to introduce research, discuss basic issues, and discuss the importance of knowledge management and information systems in business research. It defines research and describes the different types of research including exploratory, descriptive, and causal research. It also discusses the purposes of research in business and the role of research in management decision making.
This document provides an introduction and overview of research methods. It outlines the aim and objectives of the course which are to give participants an appreciation of the research process and enable them to describe research, prepare proposals, design instruments, collect and analyze data, and write reports. It defines research and describes the importance of research being systematic, logical, empirical, and replicable. It also discusses the different types of research including basic research, applied research, and evaluation research. The document outlines the overall research process and covers topics such as identifying research areas, the qualities of a good topic, research philosophies including epistemology and axiology, and the different methodologies of quantitative and qualitative research.
This document defines research and outlines different types of research. Research is a systematic investigation to discover answers and contribute to existing knowledge. There are two main types: pure research aims to develop and test theories while applied research solves practical problems. Research can also be classified by its objectives (descriptive, correlational, explanatory, exploratory), application (pure vs applied), and approach (structured/quantitative vs unstructured/qualitative). The key characteristics of valid research are that it is controlled, rigorous, systematic, valid, empirical, and able to withstand critical analysis.
This document discusses different types of research categorized by purpose and method. There are five types based on purpose: basic research aims to advance knowledge; applied research solves practical problems; evaluation research assesses programs; research and development creates products; and action research applies findings to specific problems. Research can also be categorized by method: analytical research explains phenomena in-depth; descriptive research determines current states; experimental research manipulates variables to find causes; and qualitative research observes natural settings over time.
The document outlines a project conducted by the School Accounting Laboratory at Cataingan National High School to implement a blended learning modality. The project helped address challenges brought about by disruptions to traditional learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including difficulties with enrollment. Through the blended learning approach, the laboratory aimed to enhance accounting skills, promote lifelong skill development, and provide real-life application experiences for students. Initial results were positive and recommendations were made to sustain and expand the project.
Standard deviation () and root mean square deviation (s) are measures of dispersion in a data set. is calculated as the positive square root of the average of the squared deviations from the mean, while s is the positive square root of the average of the squared deviations from an arbitrary value A. It is shown that s2 = 2 + (x - A)2, where x is the mean and d is the difference between x and A. This indicates that will always be less than or equal to s, and reaches its minimum value when A equals x. Therefore, standard deviation provides the smallest possible value of root mean square deviation.
This document discusses the functions of management, with a focus on planning. It defines planning as setting organizational goals, strategies, and action plans. Planning provides direction, reduces uncertainty, and allows managers to consider future events. The importance of planning is that it minimizes waste through coordination, and helps with controlling by establishing goals and standards. There are different types of plans based on comprehensiveness, time frame, specificity, and frequency. Steps in planning include defining goals and objectives, determining the current situation, developing future scenarios, analyzing alternatives, implementing, and evaluating results.
This document provides guidance on effective records management. It discusses structuring filing systems to make filing easy and ensure integrity of records over time. A well-designed system should allow for quick retrieval, uniform practices, easy identification and purging of inactive records according to retention policies. It also recommends developing a naming convention for electronic and paper files that uses clear, consistent formats like YYYYMMDD and avoids special characters. The document stresses managing "records of record" as the top priority and treating other copies as reference material that can be discarded without formal records management approval.
This document provides an overview of Psychological First Aid (PFA) training for responding to the COVID-19 outbreak. The training covers what PFA is, the impact of COVID-19, common reactions to crises, and how to help others using PFA skills like Look, Listen and Link. It emphasizes applying these skills while maintaining safety, dignity, and consent. The document provides guidance on assessing situations, supporting those in distress, connecting people to information and services, and ensuring self-care for helpers.

1. CHAPTER 1
NATURE OF INQUIRY AND RESEARCH
LESSON 1
DOING RESEARCH in EVERYDAY LIFE
Jazer B. Leuterio
Teacher II
2. WARM-UP
Inquiry and Research
What sort of questions do you ask most of the time? Write down a question
that requires longer time to answer and a questions that can be addressed
immediately. Relate how you you addressed each of them.
Question that takes longer to answer: _______________________________
My experience in addressing the question: ____________________________
Question that can be answered immediately: __________________________
My experience in addressing the question: ____________________________
3. Inquiry Research
Inquiry is to look
to information
by asking
various
questions about
the thing you are
curious about
Research is to
discover truths
by investigating
on your chosen
topic
scientifically
a systematic way of doing things wherein you are to begin from
the simplest to the most complex modes or patterns of thinking.
4. NATURE OF INQUIRY
INQUIRY-BASED LEARNING
Meaning of inquiry Learning is your way of obtaining knowledge
about your surroundings.
Inquiry is a learning process that motivates you to
obtain knowledge or information about people,
things, places, or events by means of investigating
or asking questions.
Required to collect data, meaning, facts, and
information about the object of your inquiry, and
examine such data carefully.
5. Meaning of inquiry Is asking questions to obtain information. This is
an investigation to discover new information that
could add to an existing knowledge to clarify
doubts and even to solve existing problems.
Execute thinking strategies that range from lower-order
to higher-order thinking skills.
Inquiry is an active learning process.
You need to probe, investigate, or ask questions to find
answers or solutions.
Inquiry is a problem-solving technique.
Like scientist, think logically or systematically in seeking
evidence to support their conclusions.
Imagine, speculate, interpret, criticize, and create
something out of what you discovered.
6. Research Process: The research process describes the various steps
the study will pass through starting from
identification of the problem to utilization of the
results of the study. The whole process is listed as
follows:
Identification of the problems
Literature review
Setting the direction of the study
Collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data
Evaluation and reporting writing
Community application or utilization of research
7. The first step in research writing is to
identify and problematize an area of
interest. The researcher points out the area
that needs further study or investigation
given the current state of knowledge on
the matter.
Identification of the problems
8. After the problem has been identified, the researcher
checks for related materials on the topic that are
available that could serve as a starting point or
reference for the study. The materials provide the
initial view of the extent of efforts done to study the
topic as well as the areas that need further research
often called the gap. The research gap will be the
basis for the purpose of the study
Literature Review
9. This contains the purpose of the study, the research
questions, and the manner in which the study will be
conducted or the methodology. The purpose of the
study explains why the study is needed. It identifies the
importance of the study in terms of its contribution to
the discipline as well as its impact on society or its social
value. The research questions narrow down the problem
to manageable and feasible tasks which will be carried
out in the methodology. Methodology describes how to
obtain and process the materials and information
needed to answer the research questions.
Setting the Direction of Study
10. At this stage, the materials and needed
information are gathered, analyzed, and
interpreted. The treatment of the data depends
on the approach that will be used appropriate for
the study.
Collecting, Analyzing, and Interpreting Data
11. From the analyzed data, conclusion and learning are
drawn. The conclusion is the synthesized answer to
the research questions which is also the answer to
the problem identified in the study. The conclusion
of the study will be the basis for the
recommendations that define the actions and
interventions that could impact the context where
the problem emanates. From this point, the
researcher is now ready to write the whole research
paper.
Evaluation and Report Writing
12. This is the stage where the result of the study is
disseminated back to the community.
For a research to make an impact on society, it is
important that it is shared especially with the
community concerned. This is best
complemented with a plan on how research will
be utilized to realize its full potential in creating a
social value.
Community Application or Utilization of
Research
13. Research is important in the creation of value that can be
classified in three ways (Creswell 2012):
Importance of Doing Research
It adds to the existing body of
knowledge.
It can improve or enhance current
practices.
It can inform policy.
It adds to the
existing body of
knowledge.
It can improve or
enhance current
practices.
It can inform
policy.
14. Research is important in the creation of value that can be
classified in three ways (Creswell 2012):
Importance of Doing Research
It adds to the existing body of knowledge The
findings in a research study can provide added
information to better understand issues or phenomena by
confirming or contesting previous results. Research can
likewise be a way to break ground on areas of interest that
have not been investigated or studied before. The result
will become the basis or reference for further studies.
Sample: College Educators Life Balance during K-12
Transition: Focus on Wellness
The study explored the relationship of K-12 Action Plans to
educators life balance (Ramos,2019).
It adds to the
existing body of
knowledge.
It can improve or
enhance current
practices.
It can inform
policy.
15. Research is important in the creation of value that can be
classified in three ways (Creswell 2012):
Importance of Doing Research
It can improve or enhance current practices.
Research can evaluate current practices in terms of
effectiveness and efficiency. Effectiveness refers to the
ability of practice to produce the set goal or social value.
Th results of the study can be the basis for decisions,
intervention programs, or plans for improvement.
Sample: Teacher- Parent Collaborative Ethics in Facilitating
Students Homework.
The study highlighted the role of teachers in initiating
collaboration with parents in doing the homework of the
students (Miguel & Abulon, 2019).
It adds to the
existing body of
knowledge.
It can improve or
enhance current
practices.
It can inform
policy.
16. Research is important in the creation of value that can be
classified in three ways (Creswell 2012):
Importance of Doing Research
It can inform policy The results of a research study can
be a starting point for changing policies that could affect
the whole organization, community, or society. A policy,
law, or regulation can be drawn as a response or
intervention to the new information obtained in a research
study.
Sample: Urban Poor and Climate Adaptation: The Issue of
Equity in Two Emerging Urban Areas of Eastern Indonesia.
The study looked at equity issue in the climate adaptation
particularly in the context of urban poor (Fathoni, 2018)
It adds to the
existing body of
knowledge.
It can improve or
enhance current
practices.
It can inform
policy.
17. The qualities of a good research
can be derived from how
effective and efficient it is in
achieving its purpose to create a
value. The qualities can be
summarized into five major
characteristics.
Characteristics of a Good Research
Rigorous
Replicable
Accurate
Objective
Ethical
18. The qualities of a good research can be derived from
how effective and efficient it is in achieving its
purpose to create a value. The qualities can be
summarized into five major characteristics.
Characteristics of a Good Research
Rigorous The conduct of research must be
systematic, scientific, and logical. It must follow clear
and logical procedures aimed at answering the
research problem. Each step must be properly
justified in terms of appropriateness.
19. The qualities of a good research can be derived from
how effective and efficient it is in achieving its
purpose to create a value. The qualities can be
summarized into five major characteristics.
Characteristics of a Good Research
Replicable The procedures utilized in research must
be replicable in other contexts and the results must
have a wide range of applicability. It is not enough
that the results are only true for a single situation.
They must have a certain degree of generalizability.
20. The qualities of a good research can be derived from
how effective and efficient it is in achieving its
purpose to create a value. The qualities can be
summarized into five major characteristics.
Characteristics of a Good Research
Accurate The data that will be used to answer the
questions must be representative of the actual
responses of the participants or actual data as
recorded in the instruments used.
21. The qualities of a good research can be derived from
how effective and efficient it is in achieving its
purpose to create a value. The qualities can be
summarized into five major characteristics.
Characteristics of a Good Research
Objective In the analysis of data, the personal bias
of the researcher must be managed well. Personal
inclinations or desired results must be always
avoided. Otherwise, the result will not be credible.
22. The qualities of a good research can be derived from
how effective and efficient it is in achieving its
purpose to create a value. The qualities can be
summarized into five major characteristics.
Characteristics of a Good Research
Ethical Data or information from respondents must
be handled with utmost confidentiality and honesty.
Credit must also be given where it is due.
