Abstract
The first sentence is a revision of the problem statement that is written in a very interesting
or catchy manner. The next sentences may be used to clarify the problem statement and
introduce the proceeding sentences that will state your general objective. The succeeding
sentences must discuss your methodology or how you accomplished your objectives and, in
the process, solve your problem. The last sentences deal with your results and conclusion.

CHAPTER I - INTRODUCTION

Background of the Study


The first paragraph discusses the current state scenario/system. If the first paragraph
tackles general issues, another paragraph may be written to explain specific issues. The
next paragraph can discuss the different problems observed or likely to occur on the present
scenario or system that you intend to solve on your study.

Objectives of the Study

General Objective. This is the statement that will be used to evaluate the
completeness of the thesis. Hence, what you intend to do or prove must be clearly
written here. The physical manifestation of your output must be stated here
unambiguously. If required, one or two quantifiable characteristics of the output may
be included.

Specific Objectives. These follow through the general objectives by describing in


concrete statements the major components of the project. These serve as visual
indicators of whether or not the thesis was completed and is fully operational.

Scope and Delimitations


The scope of the thesis covers all aspects and factors that will contribute to its completion.
The delimitations are other features of the project that may enhance its character but may
be postponed till after the completion of the major components.

 Scope
 Refers on the coverage of the study
 Refers on the area/department being studied.

 Delimitation
 Part of the study but the module has been disregarded because of the
following limitations: time(period covered), place, prototype

Significance of the Study


Discuss the importance and benefits of the study/system to the following:
 Target Users (Locale)
 Proponents
 Future Researchers

CHAPTER II – THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

Review of Related Literature


It is composed of discussions of facts and principles with which the present study is
associated. It involves the systematic identification, location and analysis of documents
containing information related to the research problem.
Review of Related Studies
Related studies are studies, inquiries, or investigations already conducted to which the
present proposed study is related or has some bearing or similarity.

Importance, Purposes and Functions of Related Literature and Studies


 It provides the theoretical and conceptual framework of the planned research.
 It provides with the information about past researches related to the intended study.
This process prevents unintentional duplication of these past researches and leads
you into what needs to be investigated.
 It gives you information about the research methods used, the population and
sampling considered, the instruments used in gathering the data, and the statistical
computation in previous research.
 It provides findings and conclusions of past investigations which you may relate to
your own findings and conclusions.

Characteristics of Related Literature and Studies


 The surveyed materials must be as recent as possible.
 Materials reviewed must be objective and unbiased.
 Materials surveyed must be relevant to the study.
 Surveyed materials must have been based upon genuinely and true facts or data to
make them valid and reliable.
 Reviewed materials must not be few or too many.
