Significance
of the Study Junilyn S. Zozobrado Objectives 1. cite the benefits of research
2. identify the beneficiaries of
research Activity 1 Let Me Check! Directions: Determine whether the following questions serve as important considerations in writing the significance of the study. Draw a / if it is, and X if it is not. Write your answers on your notebook. Activity 2 What’s In! Directions: Complete the crossword puzzle below. Use the given clues to arrive at different elements being considered in writing the scope and delimitation of the study.Write your answers on your notebook. The researcher… must be able to present the valuable contribution of the study to a particular body of knowledge or area of specialization. The researcher… has to determine the beneficiaries who will directly gain from the results of the study. Academic beneficiaries may include educational staff, teachers, students and researchers, Non-academic beneficiaries may include stakeholders, policymakers, agencies and organizations. The researcher… needs to cite the particular benefits (advantages) that the beneficiaries will gain from the study. Classification of Benefits Example Selfie 1 Selfie 2 Directions: Try drafting the Significance of the Study section of your research paper. Selecting and Synthesizing Information from Relevant Literature Objectives 1. select relevant literature; and
2. synthesize information from
relevant literature. Activity 1 True or False Directions: Write True if the given statement is correct and False if not. Write your answers onyour notebook. Have you imagined a human body without bones? What do you think might happen if there is an absence of them? Do you think you can stand firm and be able to perform all the activities that you can do now? Literature Review… requires for a survey of scholarly articles, books, and other sources which will later be enumerated, summarized, and evaluated in order to form a concrete basis and support for the current study. Literature Review… When it is done, the selected literature may appear on various sections of the study such as in the introduction, related literature section, and the discussion of results. Purposes of Reviewing a Literature The following are the purposes of literature review (University of South Carolina Library, 2020):
1. It provides the researcher a
clear understanding of the study to be investigated. 2. It justifies the need for conducting the study.
3. It serves as the basis for
establishing concepts presented in the study. Selecting the Literature for a Study In selecting the literature for a study, the following questions should be considered:
1. Can this literature help me clearly
present the delimitation of my study?
2. Can this literature give me insights to
present properly essential variables of my study? 3. Is this literature up-to-date?
4. Does this literature provide perceptive
and accurate results and conclusions?
5. Does this literature present contrasting
ideas which can be used in identifying research gaps? Conducting a Review of Literature Boza (2015) of University of California presents six steps in conducting a literature review. These steps are as follows:
1. Decide on the area of research. The first
step always begins with the clear problem in mind of the researcher. 2. Search for the literature. the researcher may utilize printed materials and references which can normally be found in the libraries.
3. Find relevant excerpts in books and articles.
Reading the abstract of a scholarly work will help the researcher determine whether it is relevant or not to the study under investigation. • Elementary reading. This type of reading pertains to word-recognition type of reading wherein sentences are literally comprehended.
• Systematic reading. This type of reading
employs skimming strategy wherein the researcher- reader may focus on the highlighted terms in the sample source manuscript. • Analytic reading. This type of reading requires the researcher-reader to break the whole scholarly work into parts for better understanding.
• Comparative reading. This type of reading
considers two or more scholarly works which will be analyzed for comparing-contrasting purposes. 4. Code the literature. Categorizing the themes of the concepts found in different literature must be done for better analysis and evaluation. • Highlighting. This tool uses marks and symbols that will help the researcher to easily revisit the important ideas found in a scholarly work.
• Annotation. This tool uses words, phrases, and sentences
which serve as written remarks of the researcher reflecting his/her understanding and questions regarding the scholarly work. 5. Create conceptual schema. After coding the concepts perceived to be important by the researcher in the conduct of the study, he/she may then organize them in order to see in a wider perspective the relevance, including their similarities and differences, to the current work.
The researcher may utilize a literature review
synthesis matrix to better see how the gathered data from literature review will be presented in the study. 6. Begin writing literature review. With a complete vision of necessary data that came from reading and reviewing literature, the researcher may now begin the draft of the manuscript for review of the related literature section.
He/she must not forget to cite the author of any data
that will be used for the study. The use of transitional words will also be helpful in order to arrange ideas accordingly (e.g.,the use of “similarly” to present that ideas have in common). Groupie Directions: Try drafting the review of related literature of your research paper. Selfie Directions: Write Yes if the given statement is correct and No if not. Write your answers on your notebook. DEFINITIO N OF TERMS Definition of Terms It explains the variables (terminologies) used in the study operationally or conceptually. is essential to ensure a common understanding of key concepts and terminology used in the study between the researcher and its reader. 1. Operational definitions - define the terms on how it is measured in the present study R$ Example: Performance - refers to the student’s academic grades earned in Technology and Livelihood $ R
Education subject in the school year 2014-2015.
2. Conceptual definition -defines a concept in terms of specific ideas, principles, or theories associated with terms. R$ Example: Performance – the execution of an action; a public presentation of exhibition. $ R Thank You for Listening!
