Research Problem
A research problem is a statement about an area of concern, a condition to be
improved, a difficulty to be eliminated, or a troubling question that exists in scholarly
literature, in theory, or in practice that points to the need for meaningful understanding
and deliberate investigation. It is typically posed in the form of a question.
Conceptual Framework
Researchers create and generate theoretical and conceptual frameworks that
comprise a philosophical and methodological model to help and aid to design their
work.
The hypothesis in your study, you are predicting the relationship between two
variables.
You must obtain the teacher’s approval of your hypothesis, as well as any
modifications to your hypothesis, before proceeding with any work on the topic.
You will be expressing your hypothesis in 3 ways:
➢ As a one-sentence hypothesis.
➢ As a research question.
➢ As a title for your paper.
Your hypothesis will be part of your research proposal.
The Department of Social Welfare and Development. The researcher believes that the
result of this study will be of great importance to the department since they are the
ones monitoring the 4Ps program. May this study serve as the basis in the modification
of the conditions in giving cash grants
The Administrators. The result of the study would be the basis of constructing and
implementing new and innovative teaching aids to help teachers fully supervise and
assess the pupils to achieve their full potentials, since children are financially
supported in their studies by the government.
The Teachers. The result of this study may help the teacher in constructing and
developing new teaching strategies to help the students in their performance and be
mindful that even if students are provided and supported by the government, they still
need equal guidance to perform well in school. The factors affecting the performance
of the students may also help the teacher as their basis in making daily lessons.
The Parents. The result of this study will inform the parents that their guidance is a big
impact on the performance of the students in school.
The Students. May the result of this research help the student in understanding that
coming to school daily may be a guarantee that they will also have good academic
performance. And may the result give them the overview of how the government is
supporting their studies and that they must do their part by studying well.
The purpose of the delimitation of the study is to delimit by geographic location, age,
sex, population traits, population size, or other similar aspects. Delimitation makes
study more manageable and feasible. Part of it sets the constraints or weaknesses of a
study which are beyond the control of the researcher.
