INTRODUCTION

Background of the Study

The background of the study provides context to
the information that you are discussing in your
paper. Thus, the background of the study generates
the reader's interest in your research question and
helps them understand why your study is important.
 CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION

Significance of the Study

In simple terms, the significance of the study is
basically the importance of your research. The
significance of a study must be stated in the
Introduction section of your research paper. While
stating the significance, you must highlight how
your research will be beneficial to the development
of science and the society in general.
 CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION

Objectives of the Study

Research objectives describe concisely what the
research is trying to achieve. They summarize the
accomplishments a researcher wishes to achieve
through the project and provides direction to the
study. It has two parts: (1) the general objectives
(2) and the specific objectives.
Objectives of the Study
(General Objective) This study aim to determine the antimicrobial
effects of oyster mushroom against Escherichia coli. Specifically, it aims
to answer the ff:
(Specific Objectives)
1. To determine the antimicrobial effects of oyster mushroom against E.
coli in different concentration.
a. 25% concentration
b. 50% concentration
c. 75% concentration
2. To determine the which concentration has the best antimicrobial
effects.

3. To determine the significant differences of the three concentration of

oyster mushroom against E. coli
Scope and Delimitation
Scope and delimitations are two elements of a
research paper or thesis. The scope of a study
explains the extent to which the research area
will be explored in the work and specifies the
parameters within which the study will be
operating.
Operational Definition of Terms
Operational definition of terms refers to a
detailed explanation of the technical terms and
measurements used during data collection.
