Research is defined as a systematic investigation or search to establish facts, reach new conclusions, and develop new theories. It involves carefully collecting and analyzing information to increase understanding of a topic. Some key aspects of research are that it is organized, objective, and aimed at solving problems or answering questions. Research requires clearly defining objectives, formulating hypotheses, collecting and analyzing data, and reporting findings. The overall goal is to contribute new knowledge or insights.

3. What does “RESEARCH MEAN” ???

4. • Derived from the
prefix re which
means repeat or
redo, and to find
or look for
something which
had been in
existence before.

5. Other definition of RESEARCH
• A systematic investigation of some
phenomena or series of phenomena by
experimental method
• It is a systematic process of collecting and
logically analyzing information or data for
some purpose

6. • A systematic attempt to provide answers to
unanswered questions
• The process of gathering data information to
solve a particular or specific problem in a
scientific manner

8. • To discover new facts about known
phenomena and verify existing knowledge
• To find answers to problems which are only
partially solved by existing methods and
information

10. • To enhance and improve life
• To find the answers to certain questions
through the application scientific procedures

11. • Does a researcher needs to
have objectives in his/ her
research?

12. YES.

13. • Research is as an organized approach including enunciating
the problem, forming a hypothesis, gathering data, analyzing
the facts and reaching certain conclusions, either in the
form of solution for the concerned problem or in certain
generalizations for some theoretical formulation.
• Research objectives are actually a specification of the final
reason behind undertaking research in the first place. They
aid in creating a specific list of information needs. Only
when the investigator understands the problem that
management desires to deal with can the investigation
project be designed to give the relevant information..dpuf

15. RESEARCH WORK
• R – ESOLUTE: A research work must be marked
by courage and firm determination on the part of
the researcher to adequately complete his/ her
work
• E - SSENTIAL: It must be significant not only to
the researcher, but also, and more importantly to
the readers of his/ her work.

16. • S - TATISTICALLY SOUND: It must present
numerical data that are correct
• E – MPIRICAL: It must be based on the
researcher’s experiences, whether direct ot
vicarious ( experienced by someone, watched,
heard)

17. • A – CCURATE: It must be devoid ( being
without) of errors in grammar, mechanics, facts,
organization, and the likes
• R – ESULT- ORIENTED: It must produce the
desired effects which the researcher initially has in
mind prior to the conduct of research

18. • C – RITICAL: It must be a product of good
judgment and critical thinking
• H – YPOTHESIS- BASED: It must be on a
scientific (hypothesis) guess which is stated either

with information that the readers need
• S – YSTEMATIC: It must done presented in an
orderly manner

21. Other Characteristics

22. • C – OMPREHENSIVE: The researcher must be
serious about understanding a phenomenon and has
to analyzed all aspects before making a
generalization or conclusion
• R – IGOROUS: Procedures to be followed in
solving a problem must be relevant, appropriate,
justified, and strictly observed

23. • V – ALID: The formulation of conclusions must be
based on actual findings
• V- ERIFIABLE: Researcher can check the
correctness of its results be replicating the study
based on the methods and procedures employed by
the researcher

25. • Selecting a subject
• Determination of the problem
• Formulation of a hypothesis

26. • Doing a library research
• Designing a research
• Making an initial plan

27. • Completing the plan and writing the first draft
• Preparation of an instrument for collecting data
• Collection of data

28. • Analysis of data
• Determination of implications and drawing of
conclusions based on findings
• Revising the rough draft and preparing the final
copy
• Writing of recommendations for future research

30. • Descriptive Research
- This type of research endeavors to describe
systematically, factually, accurately, and objectively
a situation, problem or phenomenon. It seeks to
describe “ WHAT IS” .

31. • Correlational/ Associational Research
- In this type of research, the investigator
tries to probe the significance of relationship
between two or more factors or
characteristics.

32. • Explanatory Research
- The researcher seeks to clarify how and
why a relationship exists between two or
more aspects of a situation or phenomenon.

33. • Exploratory Research
- This is undertaken when the investigator
is after probing or exploring areas where little
is known about the research problem.

34. • Experimental Research
- The researcher probes into the cause and
effect by exposing one or more experimental
groups to one or more treatments or
conditions.

35. • Comparative Research
- The investigator delves on analyzing the
possible effect of a factor which cannot be
manipulated and controlled.

37. What is a research paper?

38. • A research paper is a conventional full- dress
report.
• is an expanded essay that presents your own
interpretation or evaluation or argument.
• is more than the sum of your sources, more
than a collection of different pieces of
information about a topic, and more than a
review of the literature in the field.
