TOPIC

A “kolateral” for a change and a starting point(The Drug War issue’s and songs'
contributions)

RESEARCH VISION

It is so often that we observe happenings with regards to the War on Drugs, may it be in

the media, or even in real life

RESEARCH PROBLEM

The researchers have come up with the problem about how the issue on the War on

drugs and songs (focusing on the album “Kolateral”) contribute to the changes of the

uses of the Filipino Language.

OBJECTIVES

The goal of the researchers is to be able to identify the words or uses of words that have

been used or are being used in the issue on the War on drugs with regards to the

mentioned album that contributed to the change of the uses of the Filipino Language,
and then analyze what the uses of those words were and their various meanings by the

person who used the word or from other people's understandings. After analyzing, the

researchers will be able to draw conclusion about the how different or close the

comprehension of the listener or reader from the message that the writer or speaker is

trying to convey, and how diverse the comprehensions are, and how they have

contributed to the uses of the Filipino Language that we have now.

RESEARCH QUESTIONS

1. How does music affect your knowledge in the use of our language in today's

generation?

2. What is the use of the Filipino language in today's music?

3. (After listening to album) How was the Filipino Language used in the album to

convey it's message?

4. When having a conversation about the war on drugs, how often and where usually

and/or seldom do you hear or use purposely or accidentally use cohesive devices?

Does it help you exercise your creativity?

RESEARCH PLAN/PROCEDURE

First, each researcher will be assigned to a participant that has a liking for music. Then,

they will be interviewed using the research questions. All answers will be recorded and

used for data processing, in which the researchers will draw a conclusion from there.
INSTRUMENTATIONS AND RESEARCH APPROACH/DESIGN

The researchers will use a qualitative form of design. The instruments needed are a pen

and pad paper for the guide questions and documentation, a phone and earphones for the

participants to listen to the songs assigned and the ethical consent of the participants.

Four participants will be interviewed (one per student), and all of them should be

teachers of Don Bosco Makati; two would be chosen from the Junior High School

Department and the other two from the Senior High School Department. There is no

certainty that insights of the two pairs from on department would be different from the

other, but there is a higher chance, of course, compared to choosing four teachers from

only one department.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

uses of words that have been used or are being used in the issue on the War on drugs

with regards to the mentioned album, Our desired respondents are 4 teachers from

Don Bosco Technical Institute of Makati 2 from the senior high school department And

the other 2 are from the junior high school department, we will let the participants listen
