given. Each section in every chapter is given brief descriptions for your guidance. Also,
consider the number of pages required per chapter, and try your best to meet them.
Chapter 1
Introduction
(at least 5 pages, maximum of 8 pages)
Chapter 2
Research Framework
(at least 8 pages, maximum of 15 pages)
Conceptual Framework
From the review of related literature, the researcher can formulate a conceptual framework that
embodies the specific direction by which the research will have to be undertaken.
• The conceptual framework specifies the key variables and their interrelationships.
• It also outlines the input, process, and output to be employed in the research.
Hypotheses
Research hypotheses are formal affirmative statements of prediction about the results before
the study is conducted. It is based on what other theories and previously complete studies have
found. Hypotheses can be classified as research or statistical.
To be useful in research, the hypotheses must meet several standards:
• The hypotheses should be testable. If directional, the hypotheses should state the
direction of the relationship. Both the research/alternative and null hypotheses should
be stated.
• For statistical hypotheses, the level of significance usually at 0.05 level should be set
before testing.
Note: State first the conceptual, then, the operational definitions (although, using one of them
is already acceptable). Arrange the terms in alphabetical order and acronyms should always be
spelled out fully, especially if it is not commonly known or if used or the first time.
Chapter 3
Methodology
(at least 5 pages, maximum of 10 pages)
This chapter includes the research design, the sample and sampling procedure, the locale of the
study, the research instruments employed, the data collection procedure, and data analysis
approach.
Research Design
A research design is the systematic plan for carrying out a study which is either quantitative
and/or qualitative. Examples for quantitative design are descriptive, comparative, correlational,
causal comparative and experimental designs.
Research Instrument/s
This contains a description of the development or adoption of instrument/s. Instruments include
laboratory equipment, devices, tests, questionnaires, interview guidelines and/or schedules.
The methods used to establish the validity and reliability of the instruments must also be
included. For instruments that are adopted, the validity and reliability coefficients must be
mentioned.
Any errors and weaknesses in the procedures that have been discovered during the conduct of
the research should be pointed out, and any consequent limitations upon the research results
should be fully noted.
Remember that this section also intends to show the reader what they need to know to be able
to replicate the study or to deviate from it and to judge the reliability and validity of the research
method.
References
(at least 3 pages)
The reference section is a listing of all works cited in the body such as journal articles,
encyclopedias, books, magazines, newspapers, pamphlets, theses, films, tapes, CDs,
televisions, lectures, databases and internet/online sources. Make sure to use the APA
referencing style in presenting the listing.
Documentation
(Not required for Non-Experimental or Non-Development Studies)
This section presents photos of the significant progress or development of the project,
particularly for experimental and product development researches. Here, the step by step
process of the experiment or development is shown through pictures that are given appropriate
titles and captions.
Appendices
The appendices section include all pertinent documents used in the conduct of the research
such as communications, research instrument, additional tables and figures, and transcriptions.
Begin each appendix on a separate page, centered at the top of the page, and double-spaced.
Type the word Appendix (in uppercase and lower case letters) and the identifying capital letter
(Appendix A, Appendix B, etc) following the order in which they are mentioned in text.
