Making A Mini Research

LESSON
Research is a careful and detailed study into a specific problem, concern, or issue
using the scientific method.
Rosario, Eden, Eniego and Lundag (2018) defined statistical mini research as the
output of data gathered through questionnaire, interview, observation, and
experimentation from an identified set of samples.(272)
They enumerated the following steps in formulating a Statistical Mini Research

Step 1: State the problem
Think of a topic that you find interesting. It can be current issues. The data
of the problem must be attainable. It should be realistic. It is important that you set
limitations of your research. For example, your data source will be limited only for
Grade 10 students.
In stating the problem, hypothesis is needed. Hypothesis is a proposed explanation
or answer to the problem stated. You need to provide practical and complete
assumptions
Step 2: Design the research
Provide an outline of your mini research. The research design explains the data
collection and the statistical analysis plan in order to come up with a reliable result
and conclusion.
Step 3: Gather the data
Some data are readily available from school records or government websites. Others
can be obtained through surveys, questionnaires, interviews or observation.
Step 4: Analyze the data
It is the heart of the research work. Analyzing the data means transforming the data
gathered into meaningful information. You will use appropriate statistical method to
interpret research data.
Step 5: Make summary, Conclusions and Recommendation
The last step of formulating mini research wherein the findings of the data is
organized. This will answer your hypothesis. Come up with a conclusion and
generate recommendations for future researchers.
The title summarizes the main idea or ideas of your study. A good title contains the
fewest possible words that adequately describe the contents and/or purpose of
your research paper.
Characteristics of a Good Research Title

According to rhetoric scholars Hairston and Keene, making a good title for a paper
involves ensuring that the title of the research accomplishes four goals. First, a
good title predicts the content of the research paper. Second, a good title should be
interesting to the reader. Third, it should reflect the tone of the writing. Fourth and
finally, it should contain important keywords that will make it easier to be located
during a keyword search.
