Chapter 1
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
1.1 Introduction
A good Introduction follows an inverted pyramid of writing the background of the
study. The first paragraph defines the issue/problem/subject of the study. The first
paragraph also contains the global or broad perspective. You can cite authors or situations
from the different published sources. Do not forget to write the author and the date the
material was published by enclosing them inside the parenthesis (Dela Cruz, 2010). If
you don’t want to use the parenthesis to cite the source, you may also directly state the
source. Example, “According to Dela Cruz in 2010,…or According to Dela Cruz (2010)”.
The next section contains the national perspective of your research. Begin with a
phrase or sentence that will maintain the coherence of your composition. Example, In the
Philippines”.
The following paragraph(s) contain/s the local perspective of your research. You
may narrow down from the national perspective in the second paragraph, to regional,
then provincial, lastly to your specific locale. Example, “In the Municipality of San
Francisco, one of the municipalities of Caraga,… or In Agusan del Sur National High
School, one of the secondary schools in Agusan del Sur,… ”.


Implementing Unit
Wrapping all the situations from global, national, and local perspectives, state the
necessity of conducting your research. Make sure that the reader will be convinced on the
importance of your research by the well-established prepositions in the first, second, and
third paragraphs. You may also add paragraphs, but always make sure that the last
paragraph is for the importance of conducting the study in your chosen locale.
1.2 Theoretical/Conceptual Framework
Erase the word “Conceptual” above if you are establishing a research based on the
existing theory or theories, or erase the word “Theoretical” if you are establishing your
research from a construct and not from existing theories. In the first sentence of the first
paragraph, state the main objective of conducting your research. You need also to discuss
the theory or concept where you anchored your study. The discussion should be at the
context of your study and not on the mere definition of the theory. Layout your digram
below this paragraph which represents your Theoretical/Conceptual Framework.
Figure 1. Conceptual Framework


Implementing Unit
Below the diagram is the paragraph which discusses your own concept about your
plan in conducting the research. Remember that the Theoretical/Conceptual Framework is
the background of your study. Explain each variable of your diagram or figure above,
including some important processes that you will involve. You may use polygons and/or
arrows for your diagram. The diagram is usually the “Figure 1” in your study. You may
begin with, “The figure above shows”.
(Note: You may have a separate section for Conceptual and Theoretical Framework)
1.3 Statement of the Problem
Begin by stating the main or general objective (in declarative form) of the study in
one to two sentences followed by the specific problems (in interrogative form). Make
sure that your specific problems are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-
bounded. Example of main objective, “This study aims to develop a research manual that
will be the basis for teachers and students in writing research manuscript. Specifically the
study sought to answer the following questions:
1. Specific Problem 1
2. Specific Problem 1
Null/Alternative Hypothesis (may vary)
Based on the problems above, the following null/alternative hypotheses are made:
Ho1/Ha1: Null/Alternative Hypothesis 1


Implementing Unit
Ho2/Ha2: Null/Alternative Hypothesis 1
(Note: Null/Alternative Hypothesis section can only be written based on the nature of
your research problems)
1.4 Significance of the Study
The first paragraph states the general significance of the study or the purpose of
conducting the study. You may establish a paragraph by thinking what or who will benefit
the conclusions of your study. After the paragraph, enumerate the persons and discuss the
specifics on how can they be benefitted. You may state this way, “Moreover, this study is
beneficial to the following:”.
Students. This manual will scaffold students on how to put research into writing.
This will provide them with technical guide, both in content and physical appearance, in
research writing.
Research Teachers. They will use the developed manual for instructional
purposes to sync research content to the developed school research manual.
Other Researches.
1.5 Scope and Limitation of the Study
This section discusses the perimeter of the study such as the time frame, place
where the study will be conducted, the variables involved, and limitations. The first

Implementing Unit
paragraph should discuss about the 3Ws, starting with: where the study will be
conducted; then what is the timeframe; and who are the people involved or subject of
interest.
The second paragraph begins with main objective of the study and the variables
under study to attain the research objective. After enumerating the variables, emphasize
that other factor that may intervene the results are not under study. Example “Other
factors not stated in this section are beyond the scope of this study”.
1.6 Definition of Terms
Term 1 - terms should be in sentence case, bold, and flash left. Definitions should be
defined conceptually or operationally. Terms should be arranged alphabetically.
Moringa oleifera - terms in scientific name should have the same formatting as
mentioned above but the term should be italicized. If definition is long, the
proceeding lines should be indented once to emphasize the term being defined.

Implementing Unit
Chapter 2
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
2.1 Related Literature
Chapter 2 can be written by citing first the “2.1 Related Literature” followed by
the “2.2 Related Study” section. Each of the citation should be arranged also in
chronological manner. Texts gathered from varied sources should not be copied directly
to avoid plagiarism. They should be rephrased and sources should be labeled based on the
APA 6th edition format. (Dela Cruz, 2018)
“If there are statements or direct quotation that you want to include in your
Chapter 2, do not revise the statement. Instead, write it directly in an inclosing
quotation mark, and indent the entire statement. After the statement, write the
source.” (Makiling, 2018)
2.2 Related Study
In this section, you will write findings from related studies that might be
important in substantiating your findings in Chapter 4. Like the Related Literature
section, arrange your citation chronologically or arrange them by topic. Source or citation
should be in APA 6th edition (Rizal, 2018).
The last paragraph of your Chapter 2 should contain the summary of your entire
readings including the gap or the necessity of conducting your study.


Implementing Unit
Chapter 3
RESEARCH METHODS
3.1 Research Design
The first sentence of this section states the research design whether experimental,
correlational, descriptive, quantitative, qualitative or combination, historical, etc. which
you are using in your study. This will be followed by sentences that will support your
chosen research design. You may do this by explaining why you chose this design or by
explaining what procedure or instrument you are using for this design.
3.2 Participants/Subject of the Study
Choose “Participants of the Study” if you are gathering data from human beings,
use “Subject of the Study” if you are gathering data from non-human biological beings,
phenomenon, or non-animate things. In this section, you will explain the respondents or
participants of the study, and provide reasons of your choice. You will then write the
sampling procedure that you employed in this study and its method of identifying the
samples. If you are using Probabilistic Sampling (Simple Random Sampling, Stratefied
Random Sampling, Cluster Sampling, etc.), state the formula and the margin of error that
you will consider in identifying the samples. If you are using Non-probabilistic Sampling

Implementing Unit
(Purposive Sampling, Snowball Sampling, etc.), discuss the criteria that you considered
in choosing your samples or respondents.
The next paragraph tells the table showing the sample distribution below (except
for Non-probabilistic Sampling). Label it as “Table 3.2.1”.
Table 3.2.1
Distribution of strata per section in Grade 12 students
Section Population per section Sample Sample (Pilot testing)
Section 1 15 males 8 males 2 males
16 females 8 females 2 females
6 females 3 females 1 female

Total 40 males 20 males 6 males

(example of table using Stratified Random Sampling)
3.3 Setting of the Study
Write the place or locale where you are going to conduct your study and explain
the reason why you chose this setting. Insert map if necessary, the map should be labeled
”Figure 3.3.1”.

Implementing Unit
3.4 Research Instrument
Begin by discussing what type of instrument you are using, and describe the
contents of this instrument and what data can be extracted using this instrument. Indicate
whether you designed it or adopted it. Do not forget to mention the source for instruments
that were adopted. Discuss also the validation procedures and the reliability of your
instrument.
3.5 Data Gathering Procedure
The first paragraph talks about the preliminary procedures done by the researchers
before gathering the data. This includes the preparation and distribution of intent letters to
the different concerned offices/agencies.
The second paragraph discusses the mining of data using the instruments
developed and/or adopted to the target respondents. You should be able to enumerate the
procedures from setting the respondents, distribution of materials up to the retrieval of
instrument.
The last paragraph indicates the proper handling of data extracted from the
respondents by keeping the data anonymous and/or confidential.
3.6 Data Analysis
This section discusses the statistical tools and data analysis techniques employed
in your study.

Implementing Unit
Mean. Begin enumerating by indenting once the paragraph and write the
statistical tool you are using (example above is “Mean”). It should be in sentence case
and in bold format. The following sentences will then discuss the tool at the context of
your study. Meaning you should not define the statistical tool, rather discuss it in context.
t-test. If there are plenty of statistical tools that should be discussed, enumerate
them one by one and discuss them at the context of your study.
(Note: You may also include tables that will show how you will analyze your data e.g.
Likert-scale, etc.)
Table 3.2.1
Four-point Likert Scale
Point Scale Description Qualifying Statement
4 3.28 - 4.00 Strongly Agree The students always exhibit research vigor.
3 2.52 - 3.27 Agree The students oftentimes exhibit research vigor.

General Weighted Mean Strongly Agree
Table 4.1.1 shows the format of the table in Chapter 4 which is similar to the table
formats in the previous chapters. The table number is in sentence case and bold format.
Example above is “Table 4.1.1”. The next line will be the name of the table in sentence
case. The table number and table name have a single spacing with no space after the
paragraph. The first paragraph is the interpretation of data. You may do this by grouping
all similar results (example: The table above shows that items number 1, 2, and 5 are
strongly agree with mean scores 3.94, 3.50 and 4.00, respectively. This means that the
students find the research manual very easy to use.), you may also interpret the data by

Implementing Unit
citing only the highest three and highest low, especially if you have a long list of items or
provisions.
The second paragraph is the discussion of the interpreted results. You may do this
by revisiting your Chapter 2 for related phenomenon that may explain the similarity of
your findings. Example: “The students find the research manual very easy to use because
examples on how to write the specific sections in the research paper are present. This is
because examples provide concrete reference and elaboration of a concept as mentioned
by Dela Cruz (2018)”.

Presentations of data using graphs or analytics should be in 2D, colored, no
shadows or other unnecessary picture formatting, and with labels in Times New Roman,
size 12, color black or white. The figure title, unlike with the table title, should be found
below the figure. It should be written in sentence case. The figure number should be a
counting continuation with the previous figure (example: Figure 1, Figure 2,… and so
on). Interpretation of data should be emphasized in the first paragraph.
Discussion of the data should be in the second paragraph. This can be done by
citing related literature, studies, or phenomena, with corresponding citation or source
related to your findings.
Reminder, subsection in this chapter like “4.1 Perception of high school
students on the developed research manual” is a declarative form of your research
questions in chapter 1. If you have five problems, then you should have five subsections
in chapter 4.

1. Keep in mind that in drawing conclusions it should be based on the results/findings
of your study (i.e. given one or two or more findings for research problem number
one, what conclusion/s can you derive).
2. Conclusions are not just repeating your findings but abstractions of the summary of
findings.
3. Numerical values (e.g. mean, standard deviation, t value, F ratio, etc.) should no
longer be reported in this chapter since they have already been presented in the
previous chapter.
4. See to it that your conclusions are tied to the research questions of your study.
5. Like the findings, each conclusion should be numbered, sentence case, and flash left.
The conclusion section should begin with a short introductory sentence. Example
