-The final reminder is to emphasize the importance of identifying and selecting research problems carefully, considering all potential sources and the need for a thorough understanding of the topic.
Outlines
π Identifying Research Problems
This paragraph introduces the concept of research problems and their sources, referencing the book 'Practical Research 2' by Cristobal and Cristobal (2017). It outlines various conditions where research problems may arise, such as discomfort, perceived difficulties, gaps between theory and practice, personal experiences requiring further inquiry, the need for technologically advanced procedures, patterns or trends, and inadequate literature reviews. The speaker also discusses instances that indicate researchability, including untested solutions, gaps in understanding, contradictory results, phenomena needing explanation, and multiple plausible explanations for undesirable conditions. The paragraph emphasizes the importance of careful selection of a research problem, influenced by various factors and the context of the researcher.
π― Selecting a Research Problem
The second paragraph delves into the criteria for selecting a research problem, as per Barrientos' standards from 1997, which include internal and external criteria. It advises students to consider their curricular track and field of study when choosing a research topic, ensuring it aligns with their area of expertise. The paragraph also stresses the importance of selecting a problem that is manageable and appropriate for the student's level, whether they are a senior high school student or a college student. Additionally, it mentions other considerations such as time, location, access to subjects or participants, duration, and available support when formulating a research problem. The speaker concludes by reiterating the potential sources of problems in research, which can stem from various circumstances and emphasizes the need for a comprehensive literature review.

Highlights
The Scholarika researcher discusses the sources of research problems and conditions where they may exist.
Research problems can be found in everyday settings such as schools, homes, restaurants, clinics, and communities.
Six specific sources of research problems are identified: discomfort, perceived difficulties, gaps between theory and practice, personal experiences requiring inquiry, procedures needing technological equipment, and patterns or trends.
The importance of a literature review in identifying research problems is emphasized.
Conditions that indicate something is researchable include untested solutions, gaps without solutions, contradictory results, phenomena needing explanation, and multiple plausible explanations for undesirable conditions.
A researcher's ability to identify a research problem depends on various factors, including observed situations and personal context.
Selecting an ideal research topic should be done carefully, considering the suitability of the problem.
Internal and external criteria are presented for selecting a research problem, as per Barrientos' standards from 1997.
The student's curricular track should be a primary consideration when choosing a research problem.
The research problem should be related to the student's field of study, such as business or management for ABM students.
The complexity of the research problem should match the student's level, avoiding overly complicated topics for high school students.
Factors to consider when formulating a research problem include time, location, access to subjects or participants, duration, and available supports.
The potential sources of research problems can stem from a variety of circumstances, including discomfort, perceived difficulty, gaps, personal experiences, technological needs, conflicting patterns, and inadequate literature reviews.
The video concludes with an emphasis on the importance of identifying research problems carefully and considering all relevant factors.
A reminder that the selection of a research problem should be aligned with the student's field and level of expertise.
The video ends with a thank you and a sign-off, indicating the conclusion of the topic.

solution okay
[Music]
thank you
[Music]
yes in today's content I will help you
in reference to the book practical
research 2 by Cristobal and Cristobal in
2017 I will share to you the sources of
research problem also I will present to
you some instances or conditions where
something is researchable
researchers research problem may exist
anywhere
research problem may exist in a value
setting such as in our schools at our
home in a restaurant in a clinic or in
any place in the community now
specifically research problems are
commonly found in areas or places where
the following are present
so these are the sources of research
problems one when there's a feeling of
discomfort two when there are perceived
difficulties three when there is a gap
between theory and practice four when
there is a daily experience of a person
that requires further inquiry especially
if improvements are desired five when
there is a procedure that requires
technologically advanced equipment which
needs to function properly
six when there is a pattern or a trend
seven research problem can be found in a
literature review so Ayan those items
are the sources of research problems now
aside from those
instances or conditions that will tell
us that something is researchable
one Solutions are available but not yet
tested and not known by the practitioner
two no Solutions are available to answer
the gap or the problem assessed three
answers Solutions or results are
seemingly not tested or are factually
contradictory
4. a phenomenon exists which requires
explanation and five there are several
possible and plausible explanations for
the existence of an undesirable
condition
a researcher coming up with the research
problem depends on many factors it may
depend on the situation that you observe
or on the condition that is present in
your own context
just keep in mind that I'm just like any
other undertaking
identifying your research problem and
selecting your topic should be done
carefully Casino you need to come up
with the ideal one
and um in connection with selecting an
ideal topic so there are factors or
considerations in formulating the
research problem now as according to
Barrientos stand in 1997 there are two
criteria in order to select or choose a
research problem so one is internal
criteria and the second one is external
criteria
nothing video
now last few reminders so um the
curricular track of a student like you
should be a primary consideration in
selecting your research problem
if you are an ABM student so your
research plan problem should be related
to to your field like for example it
should be about business or it should be
about management now if you belong a man
to take book or two Humes so definitely
your research problem should be related
or relevant to your field
and another thing so a student like you
should select a research problem that
you can treat or handle effectively so
for example you are a senior high school
student so do not uh select or avoid
selecting research problem that is very
or too complicated for you graduate
student or you are in college so make
sure that the research problem that you
will select suits your level
and lastly of course actually
considerations
um that we need to consider now in
selecting uh the research problem of our
study so nanjan young um time you know
um locational research access to our
subjects or participants
duration you're my internal external
supports video
thank you
and before I finally end let me
emphasize that the potential sources of
problems in research can stem from
circumstances which convey a feeling of
discomfort have perceived difficulty
display a gap between theory and
practice involved personal experiences
which requires further inquiry in
corporate procedures that need
technological expertise present a
conflicting pattern or Trend and show an
inadequate literature
reviewers researchers
and research problems
so there you have it thank you for being
with me see you in our next video bye
