•Research has led man to search for ways
in improving his life
•The quality of life has improved through

•Studies in different strategies and


approaches in the various subject areas
and year level have been conducted to
determine when strategies or approaches
is best and most effective in teaching.
3. Research Improves Students Achievement

•Studies understands the students


characteristics, problems and needs on
the basis of which he fits the teachers
method accordingly.
4. Research satisfies man’s needs

• Modern technologies are the product of the


research
• Electrification, vehicle, movie houses and
communication facilities
5. Research reduces the burden of work

• Modern devices such as calculators,


computers, copier machines are some of the
product of research
PURPOSE OF RESEARCH

phenomenons being investigated
To create, develop, innovative something
for the betterment of all.

Variables

• Are object or events, ideas, qualities, feelings,


attitude and other categories measured,
quantified or given numerical value
• Derived from the word “vary” , variables, vary
from one entity to another.
Classifications of Variables

1. Quantitative Variables. We can assign to the


different individuals or subjects to indicate how much
the variable posses
2. Categorical Variables. characteristics are
qualitative, they differ in kind not in amount or degree.
Classifications of Variables

3. Manipulated Variables. these are conditions


created in experiment, manipulated variables are
termed as EXPERIMENTAL OR TREATMENT variables.
4. Outcome Variables. these is the result, an observed
behavior, products or conditions of an individual after
exposing to the manipulated conditions or stimulus
Classifications of Variables

5. Extraneous Variables. are independent variables


that have not been controlled

6. Independent Variables. The vaiable that are stable


and unaffected by other variables you are trying to measure.
It referes to the conditions of an experiment that is
systematically manipulated by the investigator.
Classifications of Variables

7. Dependent Variables. Depends on other factors


measured. The variables is expected to change.
