strands in Bato RDHS for school year 2019-2020 (claim/premise)
Academic Strand enrollees equaled to 177. On one hand, TVL
Strand enrollees reached 277 which doubled the number of
enrollees under Academic strand. Among the five TVL tracks
offered, EIM got the highest number which is 65; followed by
BPP/COOKERY- 60; EPAS-59; DRESSMAKING-49; and
Carpentry-44. However, under the Academic strand, GAS
obtained the highest number of enrollees, that is 56. Next to it
is HUMMS with 55; STEM with 43 and ABM having the lowest
number that is 23. (Detailed analysis/interpretation of the
text/data)

11. The table also reflects that most
students preferred TVL strand over
Academic strand.(Conclusion)

12. is a method of explanation in which
the points are organized from a
general abstract to specific and
concrete examples.
CLARIFICATION

14. Examine and analyze the chart below. Indicate all the important
points through explication.

15. Barrot and Sipacio (2016) claims
that concept paper usually ranges
from 500 to 2,000 words and is
usually divided into several parts.

22. Guidelines in Writing a Concept Paper
Barrot and Sipacio (2016) presented the following guidelines to come up with a
well-written concept paper.
1.Cost and methodology should be reasonable.
2.The budget, methodology, and timeline should be clearly aligned.
3.Use no more than five pages (single-spaced) excluding the cover page. Do not
overwhelm the readers with details.
4.Adjust your language to the intended readers. You may use technical terms if
readers are scholars and scientists. However, refrain from using jargon when
your target readers are lay persons.
5.Be sure that basic format details, such as page numbers, are incorporated. Cite
your references.

23. A. Practice Task 1: Abstraction
Directions: Write E if the statement shows an effective way of writing a

1.Rino fails to indicate the page number in his concept paper.
2.Andrew included a literature review for the concept paper he made for his
term paper.
3.Geryl includes in the references all journals he used but excludes the
books he cited.
4.Thea made her timeline independent from the details in the methodology.
5.Yana requested a budget from the funding agency on the preparation of
the concept paper.
