WRITING RESEARCH TITLE: QUANTITATIVE & QUALITATIVE #ParaMapadaliPagsulatNito #WatchThis #Examples

Summary

Teacher Claire's video script focuses on crafting effective research paper titles for both qualitative and quantitative studies. It emphasizes the importance of including the research goal or result, independent and dependent variables for quantitative research, and the concept or categorical variable for qualitative research. The script provides examples of how to structure titles based on these variables and discusses the significance of specifying the research location. It aims to guide students in creating titles that clearly convey their study's purpose and scope.

Takeaways

• 📚 Writing a research title should focus on eliminating unnecessary words and retaining key ones.
• 🎯 The research goal or result defines the direction or target of the study.
• 📊 In quantitative research, the title should include an independent variable (topic) and a dependent variable (respondents, outcomes).
• 💡 An independent variable describes the topic or issue being studied, like 'Effect of COVID-19'.
• 🔄 The dependent variable is affected by the independent variable, such as 'academic performance' or 'mental health'.
• 🔍 In qualitative research, a conceptual (categorical) variable is used, focusing on themes or categories like 'satisfaction' or 'perception'.
• 🌍 The local or setting in the title indicates where the research will be conducted (e.g., school or community).
• 📑 Quantitative research titles typically include the research goal, independent and dependent variables, and the local.
• 📝 Qualitative research titles focus on the result or goal, the categorical variable, the local, and the respondents.
• 🎓 Examples provided: For quantitative research, 'Effects of online quiz applications on Grade 11 students' performance'. For qualitative, 'Assessment of student satisfaction with new learning modes'.

Q & A

What is the main focus of today's lesson by Teacher Claire?

Today's lesson focuses on helping learners create an effective title for their research paper, whether it's qualitative or quantitative.

What should be eliminated from a research title according to the script?

Unnecessary words should be eliminated from a research title, retaining only the key ones that convey the essential parts of the research.

What are the basic parts of a research title mentioned in the script?

The basic parts of a research title include the research goal or result, the independent variable, the dependent variable, and the local or setting.

What does the research goal or result refer to in a title?

The research goal or result refers to the direction or target of the study, indicating what the researcher wants to investigate, examine, describe, explain, or explore.

Can you give an example of how to combine the research goal with the independent variable in a title?

An example given is 'Effect of Covid-19', where 'effect' is the research goal and 'Covid-19' is the independent variable.

What is an independent variable in the context of quantitative research?

An independent variable in quantitative research is the variable that is manipulated or changed to observe its effect on the dependent variable.

What is a dependent variable and how is it related to the independent variable?

A dependent variable is affected by the independent variable and usually represents the respondents, such as students, teachers, or employees. It is what the researcher is measuring to see the impact of the independent variable.

What is a categorical variable and how is it used in qualitative research?

A categorical variable is a non-numerical variable used in qualitative research that is categorized through description, themes, categories, and codes. It cannot be counted or measured numerically.

What should a qualitative research title contain according to the script?

A qualitative research title should contain the concept that the researcher wants to explore, investigate, or explain, along with the local and the respondents.

What are some examples of categorical variables mentioned in the script?

Examples of categorical variables include satisfaction, perception, belief, practices, promotion, prevention, importance, developing, and settings like eye colors, gender, religion.

How does the title construction differ between quantitative and qualitative research according to the script?

For quantitative research, titles typically include the research goal, independent variable, dependent variable, and location. For qualitative research, titles usually include the research goal, categorical variable, location, and respondents.
