Concept paper and its parts
1
What Is It
Concept paper is an academic paper which tells about a brief summary of a certain
research project, its importance and how it will be carried out. The main purpose of writing a
concept paper is to convince your reader that your proposed research project is worth doing.

There are many types of concept paper such as discussions, business projects,
commentaries, and academic research. The structure of the paper depends mainly on the type
of concept paper that the author or writer wants to write.

In this module, we will focus on writing a concept paper for academic research.

Seven important aspects to consider when writing a concept paper in academic

research.

1. Title – this can be best presented in a question form.

2. Introduction – this is the brief overview of the topic or issue you wish to study.

3. Background - This section describes the current condition of the field you're researching,
including the knowledge and issues that the study will address. You can also include the
reason why you want to investigate or study the topic.

4. Preliminary Literature review - In this section, you will write related studies and papers
that will support your research topic.

5. Methodology – This section contains the data analysis system, data gathering procedure,
instruments to be utilized or used, and participants of the study.

6. Timelines - provide a reasonable and achievable timeline for your project.

7. References – provides all the list of all sources of your research such as books, journals,
and other resources cited in your paper. You may use American Psychological Association
(APA), Modern Language Association (MLA) and the Chicago style.

2 Ways in Explaining a Concept

What Is It

A concept paper may be explained through different modes or patterns. This may be
in the form of definition, explication, and explanation.

1. Definition
- It is a technique for recognizing a phrase and clarifying its meaning; its
primary goal is to clarify and explain concepts, ideas, and issues.

Three ways in presenting definition:

a. Formal definition– Explains a term by clarifying where it originates from and the
characteristic that distinguishes it from others. This can be done also through term,
class, and distinguishing features.
Below is the diagram presentation on formal definition.

b. Informal definition – It is done through brief explanation. It only includes the

term to be defined and its class.

2. Explication
- It is an explanation method in which words, verses, quotes, or
paragraphs are taken for a literary or academic work and then
interpreted and described in detail.
3. Clarification
- It is a method in which the points are organized from a broad abstract
concept to more specific and particular details.

Field of Specialization: Law

The Cyber Martial Law: The Plaintiff versus the Netizens of the Philippines
By Kimberly C. Magaway

What will you call a law that threatens to refute one‘s rights to freedom of expression
yet has the concept of protecting it [freedom of expression]? Unconstitutional? Maybe. How
about, a triggering device for netizens to participate in the issues, inside the cyber domain,
responsibly?
From House Bill No. 5808, authored by Representative Susan Yap-Sulit of the second
district of Tarlac and 36 other co-authors, and Senate Bill No. 2976, proposed by Senator
Edgardo Angara, the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 or R.A. No. 10175 existed as
President Benigno Aquino III, shortly after Corona‘s impeachment trial, signed its right for
passage last September 12, 2012 and took effect on October 3, 2012. This law ensures the
use of cyberspace in a responsible manner, as Edwin Lacierda, Presidential spokesperson,
echoed, “…ang sinasabi lang naman ng ating Pangulo is dapat din maging responsable ang
isang tao sa pagsulat sa cyberspace”. However, this law received innumerable protests, not
for its precept of preventing cybercrimes, but on the potential curtailment of the freedom of
expression. Cyberspace, to most Filipino netizens, is the only space where they can freely
express and share their opinions and views honestly and unfazed. On the other hand,
Lacierda, in defense, has said, “May mekanismo for responsibility that accompanies any
freedom, in this case, freedom of expression. We‘ve recognized that there are reasonable
limitations to freedom of expression”.
This Act has 8 chapters and 31 sections. It is addressed to several criminal offenses
such as illegal access, data interference, cybersquatting, cyber fraud, child pornography,
cybersex, spam, libel and so forth. With universal jurisdiction, its provisions apply to all Filipino
nationals regardless of the place of commission. Its jurisdiction also lies when a punishable
act is either committed within the Philippines, whether the erring device is wholly or partly
situated in the Philippines, or whether damage was done to any natural or juridical person who
at the time of commission was within the Philippines. Under the supervision of the Department
of Justice, the Act prompts the creation of a cybercrime unit formed from the National Bureau
of Investigation and the Philippine National Police empowered to exclusively handle cases
violating the Act. Under this unit is the collecting of real-time traffic data from Internet service
providers, require the disclosure of computer data within 72 hours after receipt of a court
warrant from a service provider, conduct searches and seizures of computer data and
equipment and mandates the establishment of special "cybercrime courts" which will handle
cases involving cybercrime offenses (offenses enumerated in Section 4(a) of the Act).
The protests against this act got even louder when some senate officials issued their
counterpoints to the effect of the Act. Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago said that the Act was
unconstitutional particularly on the statement enclosed in the provisions. Thus, she predicted
that the Supreme Court would point its being unconstitutional. She also said that the
construction of the provisions was vague. Other than being unconstitutional, Defensor viewed
the Act as an obstruction to the commerce of free ideas as opposed to the absolute
constitutional provisions stating: No law shall be passed abridging the freedom of speech.
Since these provisions, as said, hinder the ‘freedom of expression in the Philippine

CO_Q1_ SHS English or Academic and

Professional Purposes _ Module 5
cyberspace, it was already tagged as the Cyber Martial Law. Accordingly, the 13th petition,
filed by the Bayan Muna party-list through Rep. Neri Colmenares, claimed that RA 10175
violates the freedom of expression, due process, equal protection, right to privacy and
correspondence, and the right to unreasonable searches and seizures. As said by Panaglinan,
“It… (RA 10175) does not explain what standards distinguish Internet users from other
ordinary criminals”.
The local business process outsourcing industry viewed the law as something relevant
to the increase of their market. To them, it will be an attraction for investors. The media is most
affected in the implementation of this Act since it [cyber world] is one of the places where they
can gather and share information from and to the public in just a short period of time. On this,
the social networkers, whom the media sees as potential and immediate audience to their
cause, are mitigated from voicing out lucid and lurid yet honest opinions. As for me, the cyber
world perhaps is a concrete representation and extension of unlimited freedom of expression,
but I think, because of this unlimited freedom, many have gone overboard--- citing and using
it to evoke malicious mischiefs. What can the right for freedom of expression bring if it will be
used to step on the reputation of others? To me, the RA 10175, is more on protecting the
freedom of expression rather than undermining it. This Act only pushes the netizens to
responsibly participate in the exchange of ideas in such medium--- that their ideas must
construct rather than destruct the disposition of others; so that they become aware that their
ideas may pose a potential threat to somebody else‘s space.
What one says is important but how he/she says it is crucial--- coherent to this
statement is the concept of the cybercrime law. We have a say to everything and I think, the
law only requires us to, if very important and can possibly contribute to the progress in the
discussion of a certain issue, share it in a manner that highlights reason over plain gossips
and hearsays. Beyond reasonable doubts, I say, RA10175, being the plaintiff, is not guilty for
undermining freedom of expression.

Activity 1.4

(1) Look for three concept papers from different fields of specialization (art, business,
philosophy, politics, religion, science, sports, home economics, agri-fishery, industrial arts and
information, communications technology) and (2) compare and contrast them using a Venn
Diagram. You may include “Cyber Martial Law: The Plaintiff versus the Netizens of the
Philippines” as one of the compositions. For other references, you may use those that are
found in the reading materials you have at home, or you may search the internet, just make
sure to cite your sources properly.

 What I Have Learned

Presenting concept can be done in three modes or patterns. These are

through definition, explication, and explanation. These three patterns contribute to the
development of the ideas presented in the paragraphs. Each pattern has unique
feature on how to show your idea in a certain topic. But, in order to come up with a
good work, you have to follow the rules in each pattern.
