17. How to create a
RESEARCH
QUESTION?

18. Step 1: Contextualize
the problem
STEPS IN DEVELOPING A STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

19. The problem statement should
frame your research problem in its
particular context and give some
background on what is already
known about it.

30. 2. What contextualized teaching-learning
module can be designed on the least
developed writing skill/s of Grade 11 HUMSS
students?; and

STEPS IN DEVELOPING A STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

31. What is SCOPE and
DELIMITATION of the
Study?

32. The scope of study in the thesis or research
paper contains the explanation of what
information or subject is being analyzed. It is
followed by an explanation of the limitation
of the research. Research usually limited in
scope by sample size, time and geographic
area.
STEPS IN DEVELOPING A STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

33. The delimitation of study is the description
of the scope of study. It will explain why
definite aspects of a subject were chosen
and why others were excluded. It mentions
the research method used as well as the
certain theories that applied to the data
(Esposito, 2002).

34. Writing Proficiency Level of Grade
11 HUMSS Students: Basis for
Contextualized Teaching-
Learning Module
EXAMPLE:

35. The main focus of this study is to
determine the writing proficiency level of
Senior High School students specifically the
Grade 11 HUMSS. This study is limited only
to the writing skills such as grammar,
mechanics, and organization skills.
STEPS IN DEVELOPING A STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

36. The obtained writing proficiency level
will be the basis and guide for the
development of the Contextualized
Teaching-Learning Module for the students
and teachers as well of Tampakan National
High School – Tampakan I District, Division
of South Cotabato.
STEPS IN DEVELOPING A STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

37. The Effect of chicken Manure to the
Growth of Tomato Plant
EXAMPLE:

38. This study will investigate the effect of
chicken manure as the main fertilizer of the
tomato plant. Specifically, this will determine the
effect of chicken manure to the height of the
tomato plant after 2 weeks of planting, size of the
leaves, number and weight of tomato fruit bare.
STEPS IN DEVELOPING A STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

39. The researcher will utilize Complete Randomize
Block Design (CRBD) where in there will be 3 groups
that is assigned with different treatments. One group of
the tomato plant will receive pure chicken manure, the
other groups will receive commercial fertilizer and no
fertilizer respectively. This study will be conducted in
the Agriculture Demo Farm of Tampakan National High
Schoool, Tampakan South Cotabato.
