This course provides an introduction to accounting research methods. It focuses on the research process, including identifying problems, developing theoretical frameworks, formulating objectives and hypotheses, selecting variables and research designs, sampling, data collection, analysis, interpretation, and report writing. The intended learning outcomes are for students to understand research, recognize its contributions to education, define research terms, explain different methods and parts of research, and prepare a research proposal. The document defines research as an unbiased investigation of a problem using demonstrable facts that are gathered, presented, analyzed, and interpreted. It distinguishes information as organized data and knowledge, while data refers to raw, unprocessed individual facts. Finally, it notes that research-generated information provides school administrators

Research Methods Research and Thesis Writing by Laurentina Calmorin Course Description This is a study of the various types and methods of research. It focuses on the research process that includes problem identification and definition, formulation of theoretical and conceptual framework, objectives and hypotheses, identification of study variables, selection of appropriate research designs, sampling, data collection, data processing, data analysis and interpretation and report writing. Intended learning outcomes
At the end of the course, the
students should be able to: 1. demonstrate understanding of what research is all about; 2. explain the significant contributions of research in education; 3. define the terms used in research ; 4. explain the different methods of research; 5. identify the different parts of research; and, 6. prepare a research proposal. What is research = Re + Search Search – means to look for something Re- prefix meaning again Research – to look for something again Research An unbiased investigation of a problem, using demonstrable facts which are gathered, presented, analyzed, and interpreted. demonstrable facts- obvious, evident or noticeable facts Research
problem – any negative
phenomenon, the cause of which is unknown but it is necessary to find out the causes of the problem in order to institute corrective action. problem-any deviation from the norms or standards Research involves a process of investigation using scientific methods of study to find answers to a problem or phenomenon which are gathered, presented, analyzed, and interpreted. INFORMATION VS. DATA Information -knowledge communicated or received concerning a particular fact or circumstance. -knowledge gained through a study -organized or processed data.
Data (plural of datum)
- statistics, raw or unorganized/unprocessed individual facts. Information and Competitive Advantage School administrators need information generated by research Broad knowledge of the school environment will enable school managers to have access to ongoing information about events and trends in technological, economic, political and legal, demographic, cultural, social and, most critically, the competitive arenas.
