investigated by other researchers.
  reasons/justification “why there is need to conduct the stuy or why is
it worth doing?”

Purpose and Description

 Discussion of an end to be obtained.

Objective
 Please included the following:
 general statement or objective of the study
 specific objectives or statement of the problems following the template
as necessary:

o Design
o Development
o Implementation

Scope and Delimitation

 Please included the following:
 what is not covered in the study which are supposed to be included in

 No extra space will be given after the last sentence and another paragraph
Note: please follow the suggested structure (margins/spacing in writing the
manuscript)
Review of Related Literature
Please follow these suggestions:
 Must have an INTRODUCTORY paragraph relating to the chapter
 Must be organized by themes, concepts or software requirements
(these are just some suggestions – it depends on your reviewed
lit/study)
 Sub-headings must be:
o Review of Related Literatures (no need to label “local and
foreign”)
o Review of Related System (no need to label “local and foreign”)
o
 The format of reference for nonverbatim statements is as follows:
 Example:
 According to Pura (year) …
 As stated by Pura (year)…
 The study of Pura (year)
OR
 It has been said that…… (author, year).
 Time frame of at least 5 years

Review of Related System

Synthesis of the Art

 Please follow these suggestions:
 need to group/organize authors, you can do it by presenting it in
terms of
o characteristics/focus of study
o software used in the study
o hardware used in the study
o etc.
 if possible statistics (number of reviwed literature/study) be cited
 eg. Five of the researchers: Atole (2013), Briones (2011),
Indico (2011), Fajardo (2013) and Oquialda (2009) focused on
the software requirements in development of their study that
include MySQL, PHP and Visual Basic…..
Note: these are just suggestions – other parameters may be included

Gap Bridge by the Study

 Please follow these suggestions:
 state the unique feature of your study in comparison with the
reviewed literature/study
 it could be on the software requirements, features,
modules/functionalities of the study
 could be based from the synthesis-of- the- art
 e.g.
Based from the reviewed literature and systems
Note: these are just but suggestions only –other parameters may be included
Definition of terms:
 state how you defined the terminologies used in the study – either
conceptual or operational
o conceptual – author must be cited
o operational – no need to write your name(s)
 please observe brief aand concise definition of terms

NOTE: Internet references should NOT be included as much as possible.

o INTRODUCTORY paragraph relating this part of the paper

Requirements specification
 Discussion of the functions of the system. This is supported by Functional
Diagram and Data Flow Diagram.

Analysis
 Discussion of the behavioral properties that the system must have.
 These behavioral properties should follow the PIECES framework.

 This part is supported by System Flowchart, Entity-Relationship
Diagram, Data Dictionary, System Prototype, etc

Development and Testing

 Concrete explanation/discussion on how the system is developed and
tested (dry run). You may pattern your discussion in an SDLC (Software
Development Life Cycle Model) that suits your project.

Statistical Tools
 determine/identify and explain
o the statistical treatment for each sub-problem
o scales of values (Likertsacle) used and the descriptive or verbal
equivalent ratings
 include equation(s) if any

Chapter V

ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

Must include the following:

 INTRODUCTORY paragraph
 cite or present the data chronologically –in consonance with the

This part of the paper presents the summary findings of the study, conclusion
and the recommendations to facilitate readers for better understanding of the study.

Chapter VI

IMPLEMEMNTATION PLAN
