A. Getting Started

Good day! Welcome to our 4TH Quarter. We are down to our

last quarter for this semester. I want to congratulate you for
making it through every day. You are growing stronger.

It is not farfetched to claim that most students shy away from this concept called the
research paper. Research, by nature, entails tedious preparation, long hours of
working, and meticulous writing. But before we go into details about writing research
paper, let us first answer these questions:

Based on your prior knowledge,

a. What is research? How is it done?
Gathering data and information is the only way for a researcher to come to a conclusion.
b. What makes a good researcher? What are his/her personality?
A good researcher must also be open-minded and take a critical approach.
He/she should be hard at work, diligent, focused and dedicated to his/her
particular field of interest.
 c. What when research is compromised?
The notion of respect for persons is central to ethical standards governing the
involvement of individuals in research. Incomplete disclosure and deception
can be valuable methods of research. Studies on the use of disappointment
have led to important scientific contributions. Researchers are urged to study
literature to understand the history and critical problems of disappointing
methods in their entirety.
Writing a research considers a lot of things. It is one of the things that demands an
ample of our time. It requires patience and not everyone can give their full
commitment in finishing or to even start writing a research paper.

That is why this week, we will be learning the essential parts and the things that we
have to consider and do when we write a research paper.

ideas.
