TOPIC
Steps in Developing Research Topic:

1.Choose a broad topic.


A. Choose an interesting topic. Your research topic must be something that you are
passionate about.

B. Select a significant topic. A topic that is worth researching must be able to answer or
solve problems in the community. To be proactive and to take part in solving problems
with socio-economic relevance gives a sense of accomplishment.

C. Choose a topic relevant to your field. One of the goals of this course is for you to be
able to produce a quantitative research study that is aligned to your chosen track.
Choosing a topic that you can relate will certainly make your research project less
challenging.
Steps in Developing Research Topic:

2. Do a preliminary research.
⮚Find out how other researchers gathered their data, what research instruments
were used, how the data were analyzed, and what important findings they shared.
Take note of every relevant research study for future reference.
Steps in Developing Research Topic:

3. Define the problem.


⮚At this stage, you should be able to narrow down broad topic into feasible and
manageable research questions. A broad topic can be narrowed down by limiting the
population, place, period, or a certain characteristic.

4. Refine the question.


⮚This step lets you evaluate the questions formulated.

TITLE
Remember that …
⮚ When the title is poorly constructed that it does not accurately describe the objective of
your research, it can discredit the value of the entire research, let alone the implication of
your research findings.
⮚ It is, therefore, important that you make your research title accurate yet captivating.

⮚ Afterall, the research title is the first thing your teacher, fellow researchers, journal editors,
or reviewers get to see first.

⮚ Once it captures the attention of the readers, they will be enticed to read the entire
work and learn something from your research.

⮚ Learning how to make your research title create a good impression is essential.
Research Title
