The Research Process

The Research Process

I.      Identification of the Research Problem

A.   Statement of Research Problems

Our group aims to inform the public about our subject matter, the Bicolano Martyrs. This helps motivate people to respect the contributions of the people of the past and relate it to the present state of things. For the teachers, they can use this to be an agendum for related activities in their school and also, for students, they can make use of our project as reference material for future researches.

B.   Conceptual Framework Formulation

II.     Hypothesis Formulation

     Hypothesis formulation is not applicable for the research problem, since our objective is to inform the public about the Bicol Martyrs. The specific question raised at the beginning of the inquiry may serve as the hypothesis.

III.   Choosing the Appropriate Research Design

Historical research design fits our research process since we search for knowledge and truth about the subject matter- the Bicol Martyrs.

IV.     Data Collection

     Regarding in collecting data, we have visited sites in the internet in connection to our topic which contains personal material like autobiographies, memoirs and genealogies and relics and remains such as historical sites. We also conducted an interview with a historian and took a trip to see personally the beauty of the monument and also to take few photos.

V.      Data Processing

     During the making of our blog, several nights of non-stop editing, coding and encoding took place in order to organize and improve the presentation of the video and the blog itself. We also ensured that the topic was tackled properly.

VI.      Data Analysis

             Based on our activities during the making of this project, we realized that a huge number of people acquire a little knowledge about our topic. We think that with the help of our project, we can educate more of these people about our heroes which is essential as a Bicolano.

VII.     Report Preparation and Information Dissemination

             We have gathered data and analyzed and sorted out those that we think would be relevant and appropriate for the research problem. After writing a rough draft, we expressed our opinions on the final appearance of our output and then revised it as suggested. For information dissemination, our work should be accessible to everyone as a blog.
