II. SUBJECT MATTER
A. Content Qualitative Research Design
Qualitative Research– involves collecting and analyzing non-numerical
data to understand concepts, opinions or experiences.
Research Design – it is the outline or the blueprint of your research. This
will determine what type of research you will be conducting.
Types of Qualitative Research Design
A. Case Study – finding the reason/s behind such occurrence drives
you to also delve into relationships of people related to the case
under study.
B. Ethnography – studies group of people that share a common
culture. It requires time in a site to systematically observe,
interview and record processes.
B. Concept C. Content and Discourse Analysis – calls for a detailed and
systematic examination of the choice and use of words from which
concepts or images are vividly derived.
D. Phenomenological Study – to understand lived experiences from
the research participant’s point of view and how they find their
experiences meaningful.
E. Grounded Theory – is an attempt to extract a general abstract
theory of a process, or interaction grounded in views of research
participants.
F. Historical Analysis – it can show patterns and occurred in the past
and over time which can help to see where we came from and what
kind of solutions we have used in the past.
Thumbs up, Thumbs Down – The students will raise the Thumbs Up and
Thumbs Down emoji based on the correct answer in each item presented.

1,2,3 Eyes on the board – The teacher may call out “1, 2, 3, eyes on me,”
and students know to stop what they're doing and respond with “1, 2, eyes
on you.” Not only does it capture students' attention, but it refocuses them
on the process of responding.
C. Strategy
Crystal Clear – The teacher will say “Crystal” to ask the students if they
understand what is being discussed, then the students will answer “Clear”
if they did understand. It may use also to get the attention of the students.

Call a friend – The teacher will call a student to answer a certain question
to get a recitation points, when then student didn’t answer the question,
he/she will give a chance to call a friend or one of his/her groups to help
him/her answer the given question.

Examples of researches

Example of Case Study – GROUP 1


Counseling and psychotherapy in the Philippines: Jojo's story.
In this chapter, we discuss the therapy of Jojo, who presented with general life dissatisfaction
and depression and felt stigmatized. The chapter describes the role of solution focused story
sharing in enabling him to take small steps in doing something about the predicament he is in
and in adopting a more positive attitude about his future. Jojo is a 54-year-old male who lives
with a younger male partner, Ronnie, who is 8 years his junior. Jojo sees himself as bisexual. He
is the second youngest child of a family of eight children. This chapter discusses the therapy of
Jojo, who has HIV. It charts the tumultuous journey of an overseas contract worker who was
betrayed by his wife, has a son who battles drug addiction, and eventually fell for a male lover.
Through his narratives, we had a better grasp of his coping mechanisms and discovered his
patterns of avoidance and his inability to accept the realities of his current circumstances. The
rapport built by the counselors and the open attitude of the client to listen and learn from the
interactions helped him see the light and get on with being alive.
Example of Ethnography – GROUP 2
Emerging from the ‘worst’: An ethnography of the modern Filipino commuting culture
behind the Modern Manila traffic crisis
This type of study uses participant observation in which the researchers were also the
participants themselves. Here, they immersed themselves in the culture and spent time with the
Filipino commuting public personally experiencing the commuting activities e.g. waiting in
terminals, riding trains or buses, and the like. This was done to get a sense of how they live the
"commuting" life, their habits, and their interactions with each other and those around them.
Upon identifying the key locations, the researchers did covert participant observation. Hereafter,
short interviews and discussions were made with the people involved in the culture until 62
observations and statements from informants were recorded. The recorded data included the
collation of information that reflects responses from the commuting students and workers alike,
public utility vehicle (PUV) drivers, and observations of the Manila-based public transportation
terminals, design of public transportation system, rail and road traffic management system.
These establishes rigor of the research findings through triangulation of data sources.
Example of Content and discourse analysis – GROUP 3
A Foucauldian discourse analysis of president Duterte’s constructions of community
quarantine during COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines
The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) first hit the Philippines in January 2020 and by March, more
suspected cases were reported, compelling the national government to create measures to secure
public health and fight the pandemic. In order to mitigate the spread of the virus, a community
quarantine in the Philippine’s National Capital Region began on March 15, 2020. This study
utilized Foucauldian Discourse Analysis in understanding President Rodrigo Roa–Duterte’s
discourses about community quarantine during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines. Two
of his press conferences served as texts for discourse analysis: (1) on March 12, 2020 when he
announced measures against COVID-19 threat, and (2) on March 16, 2020 when enhanced
community quarantine was imposed. Results showed four wider discourses: (1) Community
Quarantine as a Political Device, (2) Community Quarantine as a Protection of Public Health, (3)
Community Quarantine as an Act against Resistance, and (4) Community Quarantine as an
Opportunity for Bayanihan (spirit of Communal Unity) and an Expression of Damayan (Giving
Compassion and Support). Results showed how the discourses transitioned from community
quarantine to enhanced community quarantine. The results are discussed in relation to power and
social change.
Example of Phenomenology – GROUP 4
Hiding behind the “perfect” mask: a phenomenological study of Filipino university
students’ lived experiences of perfectionism
Perfectionist students exhibited high standards and behaviours and cognitions associated with
rigidity and obsessiveness in many contexts in their lives. The family, pre-college (elementary
and high school), and college contexts are significant in their development as perfectionists.
Students also struggled with its constant negotiations and trade-offs because of its double-edged
nature and the push and pull of their personal and others’ standards. Narratives also indicate a
relationship between their motivations as perfectionists, their strategies to manage it, and their
expected mental health outcomes.
Example of Phenomenology – GROUP 5
A Phenomenological Study of Filipino Students’ Experience of Bullying in State University
and Colleges
Bullying has been a global issue, posing concern not only to primary and secondary schools but
also to tertiary schools, specifically state-owned, where its forms may differ, and goals might
shift. This study aimed to understand bullying through the lived experiences of three students
who became bully-targets in state universities and colleges (SUCs) using a socio-ecological
perspective. A semi-structured interview was utilized to probe their experiences and understand
bullying. Through a qualitative approach using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA),
the study further explored how their bullying experiences were enabled or constrained by socio-
ecological factors. Five super-ordinate themes with associated subordinate themes were
identified: the dynamics of the bully-target experience; the consequences of being a bully-target;
coping mechanism against bullying; seeking an explanation for being a bully-target; and factors
that affect the bullying experience. The experiences of the participants revealed that a culture of
bullying within the school context is created by the interactions of peer relationship, structures of
adult authority and school systems. Hence, effective bullying interventions must involve
students, families, teachers and school administrators to create impact against bullying.

Example of Grounded Theory – GROUP 6


A Grounded Theory of Filipino Wellness (Kaginhawaan)
The purpose of this study was to develop a theory to explain Filipino wellness (kaginhawaan).
Open-ended and semi-structured face-to-face interviews were conducted among 18 Filipinos.
Nine resided in the city and the rest lived in the rural areas. The participants were also
representative of the low, middle, and high levels of family income prescribed by the
Philippine’s National Statistics Office. Glasser and Strauss’ (The discovery of grounded theory:
strategies for qualitative research. Aldine Publishing Company, Chicago, 1967) grounded theory
approach was used to guide the process of investigation. The findings suggest that Filipino
wellness is a condition where an individual enjoys economic freedom and security and psycho-
emotional wellness within the context of the family. In the absence of family, an individual may
turn to occupation to provide a semblance of Filipino wellness. On the other hand, when the
individual faces economic difficulties, one turns to spirituality as a source of wellness.

Example of Historical Analysis – GROUP 7


Tracing the history of Philippine basic education: Implications to Republic Act No. 10533
or the Enhanced Education Act of 2013
This qualitative study is aimed to trace the History of Philippine Basic Education with
implications to the Enhanced Education Act of 2013. It is also aimed to determine the possible
effect of the MTB-MLE implementation in schools. Qualitative Historical research and Content
analysis were used in this study to determine the changes that happened overtime to the
Philippine Basic Education. The researcher followed five steps in applying Historical Research
as method for this study. Result showed that there are a lot of changes in structure and education
itself in the past century in the history of Philippine Education. As for reference, the researcher
used the country of Vietnam as a model for this research as the history of their education is
closely related to that of the Philippines, they just reformed earlier, as the Philippines reform
came about 20 years after. During the 19th century, Spain was the first to decree education
reform in the Philippines, it was followed by the Americans and Japanese, thus, our basic
education system is influence by three cultures, the Spanish, American and Japanese...

Example of Historical Analysis – GROUP 8


Historical Research: A Thematic Analysis of Convention and Conference Themes for
Selected Professional Health Education Associations from 1975 to 2009 (Jill M. Black, PhD,
CHES, FAAHE1; Valerie A. Ubbes, PhD, CHES, 2009)
Many professional organizations and associations hold conventions and conferences on an
annual basis. Health Education professional associations take part in this process. Using a
historical research perspective, this article delineates conference themes for four prominent
professional Health Education associations: the American Association for Health Education
(AAHE), the American Public Health Association (APHA), the American School Health
Association (ASHA), and the Society for Public Health Education (SOPHE). Data were
collected, examined, analyzed by thematic content analysis, and then organized by association,
year and location. Development of an appropriate methodology for thematic data collection and
analysis are described.

A Phenomenological Study of the Lived Experiences of Parents of Young Children with


Autism Receiving Special Education System
Over the past two decades reported rates of autism have steadily risen. The current incidence is 1
in 68 children. While autism can be reliably diagnosed at 18 months in most children with the
condition, specialized autism treatment rarely begins before a child’s third or fourth birthday. As
screening and diagnosis procedures improve so does the need for effective early interventions for
autism. Researchers and professionals have expressed a growing concern over the need for
effective early interventions for infants and toddlers with autism. At the same time, there is a
dearth of qualitative research exploring the needs and experiences of parents with a very young
child with autism. Employing a phenomenological framework, the purpose of this study was to
investigate the lived experiences of parents of a young child with autism receiving early special
education services. Unstructured interviews and photo elicitation were used to generate rich,
detailed descriptions of the phenomenon. Data analysis from photographic images and narrative
dialogues illuminated six essential themes across participants: (a) parents as pioneers: forging the
