Inquiry or Investigation
Inquiry or Investigation
One's creativity refers to his or
her ability to explore everything
within and beyond the realms of
the mind.
the freedom to express that
creativity, if not curtailed, could
bring about an unimaginable
impact, the magnitude of which
could be gauged with the
application of such technological
Scientific research is particularly
undertaken to find an answer to a
baffling question or come up with a
solution to a problem.
Significant results taken altogether,
especially those generated from
multidisciplinary approaches and
which deal with national or regional
frameworks, could even spur
economic progress and improve
technology,
Inquiry is carried out
systematically to bring
about new ideas, concepts,
technologies and products
for practical applications.
Five major elements of inquiry

Research emanates from a simple
situation, a hypothesis, a problem,
or a mere observation that requires
a factual answer.
The driving force to doing any
research undertaking involves
generation of new information and a
plausible solution.
These basically would lead you to
ask why, when, who, what, where,
and how.
Research could:
Provide solutions to problems
through new, technological
applications and
developments
Validate a hypothesis or a
theory which leads to an
increase in knowledge and to
development
Types of research
Applied Research
usually leads to new
products or new
technologies that can later
on be commercialized
Basic Research
may provide sufficient
evidence to prove a certain
concept or principle under
investigation, resulting in
new knowledge or validate
theories.
Inquiry
may be undertaken either by an
individual or a group of individuals
with varying expertise and working
for a collaborative research goal.
a collaborative, multidisciplinary
system has been preferred owing
to two factors: diffusion of scientific
capacity and interconnection
among researchers.
Inquiry
the subject of an inquiry
should be relevant,
innovative, and novel.
topics for inquiry can be
complex and wide-ranging,
and thus, would require a
multidisciplinary approach
known as megascience
Process of Scientific Investigation
1. Formulating research questions.
- background of the study
2. Review of related literature
- studies, inquiries, investigations and
research work undertaken by other
researches
3. Formulate hypothesis
- possible solution to your research
problems
- data-gathering activities
Process of Scientific
Investigation
4.Processing of data
- process to extract any pattern
or trends.
- entails the use of statistical
treatment
- solid evidence that could used
to draw conclusion
Process of Scientific
Investigation
5. Communicating the
results
- conveying the outcome of
your inquiry
1.Acknowledgement of support
from funding institutions
2. Documented contribution to
knowledge and development
in a given field
3. Eliciting prompt feedback,
both negative and positive.
Formulating Research
Questions
research problem may arise from
a specific situation or occurrence
requiring thorough and
conscientious effort prior to
resolution.
research must be innovative and
relevant.
searching for relevant literature
allows you to expand your ideas
research question must problem
must have novelty and significant
impact, and be clear and specific.
revised research question also
enables you to take a stand, as it
is arguable.
a good research question is
SMART
Specific and searchable
Measurable
Attainable; arguable
Realistic; repeatable
Time - bound
