1. How is quantitative research related or important


to different fields of discipline?
From day to day and time to time, at some point in our
daily living, we come across and are bombarded with
various kinds and types of dilemmas, be it big and small,
along the way. Some of these problems that we deal with
every day may be personal to us or may affect humanity as
a whole as they could touch many aspects of life such as
social, environmental, and political factors.
These issues range from traffic roads and a
scorching hot sunny day to peer pressure and
financial problems. However, thanks to the essence
of research, nothing seemed to be impossible in life
at all. It is why Practical Research 2 is quintessential
in gearing and equipping Senior High School
students about the philanthropical purpose of
research in their existence as they embark on a
journey full of knowledge and empirical study, but
not with mere beliefs and guesses. As a matter of
fact, research, such as a quantitative study relies on
facts and pieces of evidence than discoveries of
such.
As we all know, there is a diverse set of
underlying fields in mankind like agriculture and
medicine. One thing that we do not know though is
the fact that research brings a tremendous quantity
of benefits to a specific field. As to an inquiry,
research refers to the systematic process of
formulating solutions to problems. Quantitative
research in an academic track or the Science,
Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM)
strand, for instance, allows designated persons in
that field to utilize research in generating brand new
ways in COVID-19 prevention, such as the study for
the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines among 12 to 17
years amidst the climbing rates of COVID-19 cases.
Did you also fail to recognize that the
interventions of technological advancements, such as
months and years for a gadget to fully function. On
the other hand, within the scientific domain of
medicine, research plays a vital role in evaluating
medical services in a hospital with the varying ways
on how they are improved. In anthropology,
quantitative research is made use in seeking
connections between cultural differences,
alternatives, and identity while research is also used
in communication to comprehend communicational
phenomena to a much larger population.
Furthermore, research is present in the field of
Accountancy, Business, and Management to
determine customer preferences.
All in all, there is no denying that research is,
indeed, fundamental and highly important in our
lives, especially in varied fields. Without its
presence, the world will not progress and its people
are bound to be ignorant. In the medicinal field, for
example, the absence of research will hinder man's
longevity which is a competency that must be met in
the said field. To make matters worse, the
emergence of high-end technological inventions and
the positive impacts they brought to business and
agriculture as to when research is eradicated, their
invention and functionality would be impossible.
Hence, research creates a greater and meaningful
life for you and me.
2. Choose two disciplines that your parents or
Earlier, we have tackled the interconnectedness
and preponderance of a quantitative disquisition. We
were able to grasp the crucial fact that research
ponders on the grounds of proof rather than
discovery. Thus, this type of research administers
empirical studies, numerical data, statistics, and the
employment of the usage of certifiable proofs or
shreds of evidence in the hide-and-seek of
resolutions to known controversies in the mundane
activities incorporated within the daily lives of men
and women of all ages of every country.
It is also worth remembering that research is
inferred to be a systematic undertaking of the
dispensation of answers to dilemmas to all relevant
aspects of life, such as social and political
constituents. Emphasis was also effectuated that
research contributes exceedingly towards various
high-and-mighty fields like Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), Accounting,
Business, and Management (ABM), and Technical-
Vocational-Livelihood (TVL) as well as the varying
domains of agriculture, business, education,
medicine, technology, and many more. This
composition aims to relate underlying disciplines
What will be seen below are the two different
areas that are integral to living, such as a College
Professor and a Lawyer. In addition to that, it also
includes the implication of how quantitative research
is utilized within a given field. An instance of how
quantitative studies correlate across a certain field is
the essence of research in the life of a security guard
to avoid sleeping during his duty hours. Research can
be of great use as it provides an ending quantity of
solutions to problems that we encounter daily such
as the drinking of coffee and doing physical activities
towards security guards to refrain from falling
asleep.
In accordance with my mother’s attestation, we had a
distant relative from my grandfather’s side who is a
college professor in a state college of Midsalip back in
the 1950s. Following her claims, she briefly said that one
of his goals was to be able to indefinitely teach students
and to be able to capture their engagement and interest
in the lessons and topics to be discussed during his
lectures. With his utilization of research, he was able to
determine and apply efficacious teaching methods and a
powerful communication style that is eye-opening and
captivating to the students to use. His journey was a
success and sadly has to leave the world so soon. I
wished I could ever meet him.

Using the Google Meeting in the form of a virtual


gathering, Genevieve Shaina Santiago made her voice
heard as she brought up the fact that she had a close
cousin who pursued the battle-like field of law and
eventually won his place of being a well-deserved lawyer
within the Santiago Family. Growing up with her lawyer
cousin, she became fond of his ways and perceptions in
life unique to him. Genevieve added that one of the
primary concerns of his cousin is not being able to retain
a large chunk of vital information faster when studying
as he longs for a more effective memorization skill in
order to pass his examinations and ace oral recitations.
The presence of research in his journey shed light on the
saying, “Study smart, not harder.” In fact, research
geared him with scientifically proven study techniques
and memorization tips and tricks. With the help of
research, he has become who he is in the present time—
a successful lawyer.

1. Cite at least three (3) courses that you would like
to take in college and explain how quantitative
research is interconnected with it.
Imagine that you are a 12th-grade student who
fell asleep and suddenly woke up knowing that you
are now a freshman in college. It may sound easy,
but on a scale of 1 to 10, 7 out of 10 students find
this to be some nightmarish situation that not every
student would like to partake. To tell the truth,
decision-making in college is irrefutably among the
hardest-case scenarios that an individual can
potentially go through as the path you take
influences halfway of your own life in the near
future. They say that just a flap of a butterfly's
wings could cause a massive storm in Texas and
that everything affects everything, even small
things. It is when practicality or passion enters the
mind of a human being, drawing uncertainty and
confusion as to what weighs better between the two
principles. Under the pressure of failing a test, and
under any circumstances, we are bound to play our
cards rightly. Supposedly, you were to choose three
different courses in college, what will they be? At
this juncture, we will now address the importance of
research to college courses that might pique your
First on our list is Bachelor of Science in Biology,
being a four-year program with applied
Mathematics. This course makes up amid my top
choices soon for college. What is great about it is
that Biology comprises a whole lot of fundamental
conceptualizations and various biological sciences
such as zoology, botany, genetics, and physiology,
focusing on the betterment of life here on Earth.
Questions may arise as to what is the relevance of
research for the sake of a biologist. One of the aims
of biological sciences is to be able to develop a skill
efficacious to formulating resolutions where
problems regarding human health are being
addressed, as well as efforts to improve the natural
environment. All of these are obtained with the aid
of research. Moreover, research is extremely
important for the maximization or increase of
learning opportunities for every biologist. Studies
like human medical research, plant research, animal
research, and especially environmental research are
longed by biology researchers wherein they study
these notions at a cellular level.
Followed by BS Biology is the Bachelor of
Engineering, research studies are highly in demand
within the field as it hones and gears the students
with profound problem-solving, computer science,
industry, pressure management, teamwork,
creativity, and communicational skills relevant to
the book of 21st Century Skills. Engineering, with a
likeness to Biology, offers a collection of high-and-
mighty disciplines such as civil engineering,
engineering, and many more to mention. As a
matter of fact, basic engineering research was
involved with the discovery and methodical
conceptual structure of knowledge by definition. It
primarily aims Engineers with the capability to
create, design, manufacture, or construct
technologies, structures, equipment, and systems
that have economic and societal value.
Lastly, we are going to venture on knowing the
significance that research plays in the Bachelor of
Laws. As we all know, it takes a pile of hundreds and
thousands of books incorporated with effective
study techniques and memorization skills to be a
lawyer. It does sound scary enough, but with the
help of research, impossibilities are made into
possibilities. For what felt like the nth time,
research was widely known for its systematic
approach to solving problems. Courses like Biology,
Engineering as well as Law require the presence of
research throughout their studies. With its absence,
the efficacy and importance of learning are not met.
Lawyers, on the other hand, utilize researches as a
free-form resource used to further back up and
support arguments with actual studies, statutes,
regulations, and court opinions other than
constitutional laws. To simply put, legal research is
conducted to be able to seek justifications towards a
specific legal issue or decision. Databases and
advanced legal research tools are made used by a
lawyer in order to come up with the best backbone
It is an undeniable truth that research is crucial
to the different fields in life. The Bachelor of Science
in Biology, the Bachelor of Engineering, and the
Bachelor of Laws are just stepping stones to lots
and lots of opportunities an individual can receive.
Regardless of your college course choice, research
is still a necessity for that particular domain. It is
important to be knowledgeable of the fact that the
absence of research causes a series of devastation
not only in the specific field but to the lives of many
across nations and countries. You see, research is
responsible for the inventions of the essentials in
our lives such as your smartphone and even the
soap you use to take a bath. Always remember that
ignorance will be the brainchild of many without the
presence of research as research yields a lot of
contribution on how things work and progress in the
real world.
2. What if you decided not to proceed to college
instead go to work, where and how can you possibly
use the knowledge on variables?
Choosing work over the pursuit of studying in
college is such an unpopular decision. Usually, when
people hear about this, they turn into hypocrites
and get judgy to the person making the decision.
However, there is completely nothing wrong when
an individual puts living above anything, even from
his or her studies. Education is, indeed, extremely
potent to the lives of many, but if they choose to
will make them responsible for the consequences
afterward. Life is like the survival of the fittest,
after all. On the other side of the coin, all thanks to
the integration of the K-12 Program, senior high
school graduates can now seek job opportunities
that do not require a degree. Now, situate yourself
in this scenario: you are a 12th-grade student, and
you decide to go to work than proceed to college;
what will be the odds of choosing a particular
occupation where you can apply your learnings
towards the underlying variables in quantitative
research?
In this case, I will choose the position of being a
cashier in a grocery store. In relation to quantitative
research, a cashier deals with numbers on a day-to-
day basis that is why I am certain that this job will
be suitable for my knowledge of the different types
and kinds of variables of research. As we already
know, there are two types of data, and one of them
is the quantitative data where it is represented with
amounts, and the variables present there are called
quantitative variables. Cashiers, for instance, deal
with quantitative variables throughout their lives
wherein the numbers that they record represent
real amounts that can be added, subtracted,
Furthermore, there are two types of variables
namely discrete and continuous variables. Within
the daily work routine of a cashier, she encounters
these two variables. In the discrete variables, we
can imagine a scenario where we can find the
cashier counting individual items as she swipes the
barcodes of each grocery item. For variables that
are continuous, when applied to the job of a cashier,
he or she must be aware and conduct an inquisition
of the age of liquor and cigarette buyers and
consumers as the law demands that minors are not
allowed to buy liquors and cigarettes otherwise, the
authorities is one call away. Another type of
variable is categorical variables. In this type of
variable, nominal and ordinal variables represent
the categorical data. Have you ever noticed the
aisles and even the counters in a grocery store are
ranked in a specific order? It is what we call ordinal
variables while nominal variables refer to groups
with no particular order, such as the customers
falling in line as well as the various brands and
colors they buy.
There may be other jobs that deal with
quantitative variables than a cashier but as an
entry-level work, being a cashier is much more fun
and interesting. Research, indeed, can be applied in
all of our respective disciplines. Whether you are a
senior high school student under a specific strand or
a professional in a certain field, research is
