DEFINITION

A research activitythat aims to develop

ones ability to identify and determine

possible solutionsto a particular

problem in the communityor possible

explanations of a particular

phenomenon

TYPES OF PROJECT

1. SURVEY

a study that attempts to interpret,

analyze and report the present

condition of a thing or place

Example:

Perception of Third Year Regular High SchoolStudents at the Ateneo de Manila HighSchool on the Effect of A(H1N1) Virus onTheir Study Habits

TYPES OF PROJECT

2. OBSERVATION

a systematic and direct means ofgathering data by watching and

recording various situations andconditions in conducting the study

Example:Changes in Weight of a Person in a Day

TYPES OF PROJECT

3. EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH

a method of research wherein thevariable can be controlled so that

experimental factor is separated formeasurement of its change

Example:

Effect of Hot Water on the Solubility ofNaphthalene Balls

RESEARCH VERSUS EXPERIMENT

Research

Thorough investigation of a phenomenon ortarget goals

Includes MANY experiments Design of methodology follows the

objectives, competence, and capability ofthe proponent

Needs a thorough review of literature

22/40

1. What TOPIC?

I might as well find about what experts or

Chemists do to find a good topic!

Suggested Themes:

Community-based (Filipino Setting)

Waste Management

Material Recovery


23/40

2. Why should I do it?

World class research is finding real

solutions to real world problems!

To work on projects that will be relevant to

the Philippines


24/40

3. How should I do it?

Survey of community problems

Library research:print and non-print

Use of available research Originality of the topic:procedure, analysis,

application, raw materials,

Raw materials: availability, proximity, cost

Interests and abilities: familiarity of the topic,

personal interest on the topic, topic is within the

scope or level knowledge

4. When will I finish?

5. Where to communicate?


26/40

Background/Significance of the Study

It answers the following questions:

1. How did you arrive at that kind of problem?

2. Why do you like to investigate that kind of

problem? Cite two reasons.

3. In case your problem will be solved, what

will be its importance to the school or to the

community? Will your findings benefitothers? Cite three instances.


27/40

Statement of the Problem

State the main problem being answered

by your research.

There should be at least three sub-problems that will lead to answering the

main problem.


28/40

Statement of the Problem

The purpose of this study is to determine ifcalamansi juice is effective in prolonging the shelf life ofpeeled apples that are exposed to open air.

In this study, the researchers will seek to answerthe following questions:

1. What substance is present in calamansi juice thatmakes it effective in prolonging the shelf life ofpeeled apples that are exposed to open air?

2. How does calamansi juice prolong the shelf life ofpeeled apples that are exposed to open air?

3. Up to how many hours can the calamansi juiceprolong the shelf life of peeled apples that areexposed to open air?


29/40

Objectives

State the objectives in specific,

measurable, attainable, relevant and

time-bound (SMART) terms that you want

to do in order to answer the problem.

State the objectives in consonance with

the formulated problems.

There should be at least three specificobjectives.


30/40

Objectives

With the desire to determine if calamansi juice is

effective in prolonging the shelf life of peeled apples that

are exposed to open air , the researchers will:

1. identify the substance present in calamansi juice that

makes it effective in prolonging the shelf life of

peeled apples that are exposed to open air,

2. determine how calamansi juice prolongs the shelf life

of peeled apples that are exposed to open air, and

3. determine the number of hours that the calamansi

juice can prolong the shelf life of peeled apples that

are exposed to open air.


31/40

Hypothesis

The hypothesis should be:1. Specific and unambiguous

2. Quantifiable or measurable

3. Testable or falsifiable4. Generalizable

5. As simple as possible


32/40

Hypothesis

State the conditions and predictions of

the experiment.

The independent and dependent

variables should be measurable and

should be explicitly stated.

There should be at least three specific

hypotheses.


33/40

Hypothesis

Given the problem of determining if calamansi juiceis effective in prolonging the shelf life of peeled applesthat are exposed to open air, the researchershypothesize that:

1. Calamansi juice contains enzymes that make iteffective in prolonging the shelf life of peeled applesthat are exposed to open air.

2. Calamansi juice, through the enzymes, slows downthe rate of decomposition process of peeled applesthat are exposed to open air.

3. Calamansi juice can prolong the shelf life of peeledapples up to 72 hours compared to other methodsof food preservation that are exposed to open air.
