BACKGROUND INFORMATION
In the previous lesson, you were presented with options as to how you will gather your data. Once
the data are collected, you need to encode and organized them for systematic purposes. This will be the
focused of this lesson. In this process, you will need to edit, code, tabulate and summarize information
through graphs and tables for presentation and interpretation purposes. The process also allows the
removal of unnecessary information.
Data presentation and analysis is one of the most essential part in your research study. An
excellent data presentation can be potential for winning the hearts of the panelists, clients, or simply the
readers. No matter how good your data, if it is not well presented, you will not be able to earn the
preferences of those whom you are trying to persuade. Good data presentation matters.
The following are the significant steps you need to take note in preparing and writing your data
analysis after gathering the data:
(1) encode and organize your data for analysis according to the data asked by your research
questions;
(2) use your data for statistical tests you have identified in Module 4. You may ask assistance from
your statistics and research teacher;
(3) present the result in tabular or graphical form appropriate for your data and research purpose;
(4) write the interpretation for each table or graph highlighting the significant results and its
implications;
(5) support your findings from relevant literature and studies you have cited in the Chapter 2 of
your research paper; and
(6) edit the grammatical and typographical errors in your interpretation. You may use
www.grammarly.com to edit your work.
(7) Submit your work using the format given to you. Remember the institutional format of your
school.
Remember to organize your data based on your research questions. The data processing involves
three actions: editing, coding, and tabulation.
Editing is a process wherein the collected data are checked. At this stage, handling data with
honesty should be employed. When you edit it is expected that you will not change, omit, or makeup
information if you think that the data you collected is insufficient or does not meet your personal
expectations. The main purpose of editing is for checking the consistency, accuracy, organization, and
clarity of the data collected. Data editing can be done manually like traditional tallying or with the
assistance of a computer or combination of both.
Coding is a process wherein the collected data are categorized and organized. It is usually done in
qualitative research. In quantitative research, coding is done to assign numerical value to specific
indicator especially if it is qualitative in nature. This numerical value will be useful when you are going to
analyze your data using statistical tool. Just make sure that the categories created are aligned with your
research questions. Consider the following example.
Tabulation is a process of arranging data. In many studies, table is used to do this process.
Tabulation can be done manually or electronically using MS Excel. Again, organize the data based on your
research questions. Before inputting your data into the table, it will be helpful to review your statistics
class on how to arrange data according to the statistical techniques you will use. Take note that the digital
tool you are going to use will also matter on how you are going to tabulate your data; like MS Excel,
Minitab, or other digital tools have different ways of entering your data. Correct arrangement of your data
will be helpful during actual data analysis.
The next step after editing, coding, and tabulating the data is to present them into graphical or
visual presentation called non-prose materials. The purpose of presenting the data in this way is to make
the outlined of the results more presentable. Non-prose materials are composed of graphs, bars, tables,
charts, diagrams, illustrations, drawings, and maps.
In quantitative research, tables and graphs are usually used. Standard format in presenting the
data into a table or a graph like its title, labels, contents, and many more can be followed as well when
school institutional format is not provided or identified. You may visit APA, CMOS, or MLA on how to do
so.
Tables
Table helps summarize and categorize data using columns and rows. It contains headings that
indicate the most important information about your study.

Sample 1
Table 1 shows the summary of the overall adjectival rating in frequency and percentage of
students in their pretest in Pre-calculus at Gulayan National High School for S.Y. 2019-2020.
Results reveal that 66% of the students have satisfactory rating. Only 5% have outstanding
rating. Overall, the data showed that the students at Gulayan National High School have fair
ratings based on their pretest scores. This implies that most of the students do not have prior
mastery on the concepts of this subject. Hence, teacher is expected to apply teaching strategies
that will increase students’ concepts of the subject. This result is supported by Ignacio (2016)
that pretest scores especially if it is valid and reliable shows prior knowledge of the learners of
the subject matter.
Sample 2
Looking at Table 4, there is a significant relationship between the classroom interaction that
facilitates positive discipline and sense belonging (r(39 = .973, p = 0.000). The feeling of being safe
and welcome in school is significantly related to how the teachers manage classroom interaction.
This result is supported by the early studies on classroom management by Brophy and Avertson
(1976) that though variety of teaching behaviors affect effective teaching; classroom management
appeared to be one of the most critical aspects as viewed by students.

Graphs
Graphs focuses on how a change in one variable relates to another. Graphs use bars, lines, circles,
and pictures in representing the data. In interpreting the graph, it is the same process in table. In
choosing what type of graph to use, determine the specific purpose of the presentation. Line Graph
illustrates trends and changes in data over time, Bar Graph illustrates comparisons of amounts and
quantities, while Pie Graph (Circle Graph) displays the relationship of parts to a whole.
Figure 1 shows the canteen lunch menu of GRSHS-X. The graph reveals that rice is highly
patronized by the students and teachers with 150 cups sold daily. It can also be noted that pork and
chicken menus have a good number of buyers (315 serve/pieces). Vegetable menus cannot be
undervalued since several consumers (135 serve/pieces) also patronized the food. At the same time,
seafood menus earn the last spot (50 serve/pieces sold). Generally, students and faculty of GRSHS-X
preferred meat (pork and chicken) menus next to rice.
Figure 2 showed changes in the average grade of Elective Mathematics between Grade 10- Max and
Grade 10-Min from the first quarter to the fourth quarter for S.Y. 2019-2020. From the graph, it is evident
that both sections are performing well, but Grade 10-Max managed to maintain consistently its high
performance than Grade 10-Min every quarter. During the second quarter, there is a noticeably far
difference between the two sections. Overall, Grade 10-Max gained a better performance in Elective
Mathematics than Grade 10-Min.
Figure 3 showed the result of the survey conducted to Grade 7 students when
asked about their dream job. From the graph, forty percent (40%) and thirty percent (30) of
the participants wanted to become a doctor and an engineer, respectively with just thirty
percent (30%) left for other professions. Only about five percent (5%) wanted to become a
teacher. From the data, more than 70% of the Grade 7 students will likely pursue STEM
strand courses when they graduate in high school.
