Directions: Read the research abstract. With your groupmates discuss your answer to the
following guide questions. Write your answer on the space provided. Consider the criteria cited
in the rubric below as you answer each question.
➜ The research topic is "Development and Evaluation of an Online Enrollment System." This
study aims to make hassle-free the enrollment of students in which they will use the online
enrollment system. Through this, students can fill out forms while staying at their own homes,
and teachers will have an organized collection of students' data from the online enrollment
form.
2. What is the research method used? Is the research method used in this study appropriate?
Why?
➜ The research method used was a descriptive developmental approach. And the method
they've used is appropriate because they seek to describe the characteristics of the
phenomenon being studied and develop something that will answer the problem.
3. What is the research instrument used? Is the research instrument utilized in this study
appropriate? Explain.
➜ The research instrument used was a survey. Also, it was an appropriate instrument to be
used because they had a short discussion about a specific topic through it.

Direction: Create a topic on the following kinds of research based on the current situation in
your surroundings:
1. Descriptive
Analysis of Factors Affecting the Academic Performance of Grade 12 STEM Students in TSHS
2. Correlational
Impact of the COVID‐19 Pandemic on Senior High Schoolers' Physical activity, Sleep, Screen
time and Diet: A Quasi-Experimental Study

5. Survey
Directions: Read the following carefully. Answer the essays is 3-5 sentences only.
➜ Quantitative research is used to quantify the problem by generating numerical data or data
that can be transformed into usable statistics. In this type of research, researchers tend to
remain objectively separated from the subject matter. This is because quantitative research is
objective in approach in the sense that it only seeks precise measurements and analysis of
target concepts to answer his inquiry. Additionally, quantitative research is usually used in hard
sciences like physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine.
➜ Doing this type of research can give you an advantage because of its strengths, such as data
is in numeric form, which makes it easier to interpret, it allows for greater objectivity and
accuracy of results, it allows for a broader study, involving a greater number of subjects, and
enhances the generalization of the results, etc. However, even though it has something that
makes it strong, we can't deny that it still has weaknesses, such as results provide less detail on
behavior, attitudes, and motivation, results are limited as they provide numerical descriptions
rather than detailed narratives and generally provide less elaborate accounts of human
perception, the development of standard questions by researchers can lead to "structural bias"
and "false representation," where the data actually reflects the view of the researcher instead
of the participating subject, etc.
Descriptive
➜ It is a study design that provides an in-depth understanding of the study population. On one
hand, a correlational study is a type of research that measures the relationship between two
variables.
Correlational
➜ It referrs to a non- experimental research that studies the relationship between two
variables with the help of statistical analysis.
Quasi-Experimental
Experimental
➜ It is a type of study which is commonly used in scientific research designs, and it is the
primary approach used to scrutinize the causal relationships and investigate the relationship
between one variable and the other.
