Lesson
Developing A Questionnaire
1 for Research

This time our lesson will deal on

prewriting activity that will lead to the making
of your research report.
After going through this, you are
expected to:
1. Explain what are steps to remember
in developing questionnaire for one’s
research; and
2. Develop questionnaire for a research
topic.

Before we start, let us check this first!

Task 1: REVIEW OF PRIOR KNOWLEDGE

Answer the following questions

1. What is a questionnaire?

2. How important is a questionnaire in gathering data for your research?

Task 2: WHAT I THINk

In our previous lesson, you have learned that

coherence and cohesion are important in writing your
paragraph. The use of cohesive devices will help make the
sentences in your paragraph flow smoothly.
With this knowledge, you are now to embark on a
new challenge of a writing activity that will help you become
prepared in the making of your advocacy campaign.
Take the challenge. Do not miss to study and
understand our next lesson.

Task 3: EXPLORE YOUR COMMUNITY!

Answer the following:
1. What specific problem in your community you would like to have a survey?
2. What information are you trying to gather from this survey?
3. What information do you need from the respondents in order to meet your objectives?

Let’s discuss how to

develop a questionnaire for
your research

HOW TO DEVELOP A QUESTIONNAIRE FOR RESEARCH

1. Figure out what information you are trying to gather from this survey. What is your
main objective in doing the questionnaire? What information do you need from the
respondents in order to meet your objectives? Think of questions that will address
your objectives. You should not include any question that is not directly useful to
your research.
2. Write an introduction for your questionnaire. This should explain a little about your
questionnaire: why are you doing it and what is your goal. The introduction, while
 brief, should engage your target audience. Think about how much time they have,
and administer the questionnaire based on that estimate.
3. Use closed questions for questionnaire. A closed question is one that can be
answered with a word or a phrase. This makes it easy for the respondent to give
their answer without having to think of an articulate way to word it. Closed questions
also make classification of responses earlier.
4. Order your questions in a way that is meaningful and easy to follow. Start with
questions that are easy to understand and easy to answer. Opening with harder
questions is discouraging and may scare your respondents before they complete
your entire survey. Easy questions help encourage your participants to finish
answering. The questions should flow in an order that sounds natural and does not
skip around too much.
5. Put the more important questions at the beginning of your questionnaire. Often,
participants can lose interest on the latter part of the questionnaire, especially if the
survey is rather lengthy. Place more important questions in the first part of the
questionnaire.
6. Add a little variety to your questions. While closed questions are best for ease of
answering and analyzing purposes, adding in a couple of open-ended questions
helps keep respondents for becoming bored. Open-ended questions require
respondents to write out their answers and to include some details.

Let’s try this.

Task 4: ASK QUESTIONS

If you are an environmental advocate and you have observed that proper waste
disposal and segregation of garbage is a problem in your school, what specific questions
you would like to ask to your respondents?
Write your questions inside the table.

Question 1:

Question 2:

Question 3:
 Now that you have learned how to write good
questionnaire, you are ready to make your own about a
local treasure or a heritage in the community. You can
use the template below as a model for your work.

Tas k5: COLLECT YOUR TREASURE

Local Treasure Questionnaire

This questionnaire is used to help the researchers collect information in order to complete the
study (title of the topic). Please answer all the questions by providing the appropriate information.
The data will be treated with utmost confidentiality.

General Information:

1 Review of Related Literature

In this lesson, you will learn what a review of related literature is

and how to write it. Specifically, you are expected to:
a. Describe what review of related literature is;
b. Explain the qualities of a good literature review matrix; and
c. Cite the importance of Related Literature in a study.

Task 1: RECALL YOUR PRIOR KNOWLEDGE

Let’s start!
Can you still recall your previous lessons on review of related literature?
Fill in the box with your ideas.

What do you think a literature review is, and what it is not? Write the following
statements under the right heading.

A literature review is A literature review is not

Simply a collection of texts A composition of a range of A compilation of all material

that you think are interesting
or every text that you have
read.
A descriptive summary of
each and every text
sources
A place to present an
argument, a clear
articulation of your own
position in relation to
relevant literature
related to your research
field, regardless of its
relevance to your project.
A place to make explicit
connections between
previous research and your
own
Task 2: ASSOCIATE ME
A. Using the graphic organizer below, fill in the circles with words you can
associate with literature review.

LITERATURE
REVIEW

Let us discuss what review of related literature is. I want you to

study carefully the discussion below.

A literature review or ‘review of related literature:

❖ It is part of the research that discusses published information in a particular subject
area.
❖ It provides the recap and re-organization of information, or it might also trace the
intellectual progress on the subject at hand.
❖ It evaluates the sources and advises the reader on the most pertinent or relevant
information.
Note: When there are plenty of authors who researched about the subject matter,
you have to create a graphic organizer to keep track of the different authors’ ideas. One of
these graphic organizers is the Literature Review Matrix.
Study the following characteristics of a good literature review matrix.
Qualities of a Good Literature Review Matrix
❖ Limitation. Good matrices limit the amount of information you have to work
with to write your paper. On your matrix take not only of the ideas that address
your research question which you will write at the top of your matrix as a
reminder to keep yourself on track.
 ❖ Comparison. Labelling the ideas that pertain to your question so you can see
where author agree and disagree—and where other authors ignored an ideas
altogether.
❖ Discovery. You can anticipate what ideas will emerge and label those in
advance of your reading. What will you do with the ones mentioned by only
one author? Are they worth including as you attempt to provide a thorough
answer to your question? How will you decide?
❖ Location. You will create a reference list as you read your articles. Keep track
of citations as you find the sources in electronic databases or in the Internet.
❖ Labelling. The names of the first authors of each study appear across the top
of the matrix. The names can easily be related to the full citation information.
❖ Note-taking. As you read the research, make brief notes in the blank cells
about ideas that address your research question. You can drop authors that
provide little useful information from your references. Keep adding and
deleting sources until you see a pattern of ideas emerging that will help you
answer your research question.
❖ Expanding. Expand as you review more studies by adding pages.

Now that you have read about our lesson, let us check
how much you understood our topic.

Task 3: INTERPRET ME
Write about your own interpretation of the qualities of a good literature review. Use
the graphic organizer below to show your answer.

Let’s explore.

Research paper is also known as term paper or research report. It is a piece
