Iniibig ko ang Pilipinas, aking lupang sinilangan

tahanan ng aking lahi; kinukupkop ako at tinutulungang

maging malakas, masipag at marangal.
Dahil mahal ko ang Pilipinas, diringgin ko ang payo
ng aking mga magulang, susundin ko ang tuntunin ng paaralan,
tutuparin ko ang tungkulin ng mamamayang makabayan;
naglilingkod, nag-aaral, at nananalangin
nang buong katapatan.
Iaalay ko ang aking buhay, pangarap, pagsisikap sa bansang
Pilipinas.

Parts of Research
Report
Learning Competency: Compose a research report
on a relevant social issue.

After going through this module, you are

expected to:
•Identify the parts of research report;
•Give the importance of research report in
solving relevant social issues; and
•Write a draft of a research report.
Research Report

Research Report is a condensed form or a brief

description of the research work done by the
researcher. It involves several steps to present the
report in the form of thesis or dissertation.
Research Report

It also refers to a completed study that reports an

investigation or exploration of a problem,
identifies questions to be addressed, and includes
data collected, analyzed, and interpreted by the
researcher.
Parts of Research
Report
Writing the Introduction
The essential parts of the introduction:
A. Brief Background: Provide an overview of the
scope of the research.
B. Objectives of the Study: Articulate what you
intend to find out or achieve in the study. Some
researchers use research questions that they
intend to address in the report. Others articulate
the objectives of the study. Either way, research
questions or objectives are tools to guide readers
in knowing the direction of the research.
Writing the Introduction
The essential parts of the introduction:
C. Significance of the Study. Discuss the
relevance of the study to your intended
audience. Cite the specific benefits that they
can get from the findings of the research.
D. Literature Review. Discuss previous
studies done on the chosen topic. Relate how
your research relates to these previous
researches.
• The introduction serves the purpose of leading
the reader from the general subject area to a
particular field of research. (Source

•In writing the introduction, you also have to
think of catchy devices or hooks that would get
the interest of your readers. This can be done
through the use of questions, a direct quotation,
a startling fact or vivid description.
Writing the Body

The body of the research report contains the

substantial amount of information that needs to be
clearly and accurately presented and analyzed. The
data that will be presented in this section are meant to
address the research questions or objectives. In
presenting the gathered information, you can use pie
charts, graphs or tables. Note that you must introduce
each illustration appropriately followed by an
adequate discussion of the data presented.
Writing the Body
Moreover, you need to use related studies to support or
refute the findings. You can do this by incorporating the
notes (summary, quote, paraphrase) that you have gathered
in the rewriting phase. Also, introduce and explain the
direct quotation, paraphrase or summary that you have
incorporated in the discussions. Remember to cite your
sources using the recommended system of documentation to
avoid plagiarism. Plagiarism occurs when ideas,
information, and even pictures are used without proper
acknowledgment of the original sources.
Writing the Conclusion
The conclusion is important in bringing
home the highlights of the research paper.
A well – written conclusion allows
readers to take on a new perspective about
the thesis. Moreover, it provides readers
with recommendations that can be
explored concerning the topic.
Writing the Conclusion
Recommendations address limitations and
suggest how they might be overcome in future
work or researches.

The basic structure of a typical research paper

is the sequence of Introduction, Methods,
Results, and Discussion (sometimes
abbreviated as IMRAD).
Quarter 4 – Module 8
Research Report
Learning Competency: Compose a research report
on a relevant social issue.

After going through this module, you are

expected to:
•Write a research report on a relevant social
issue; and
•Apply the steps and tips in composing a
research report.
How research report writing
would be?
The purpose of the research report writing is
to deliver the results of the research to the
interested person as far as possible and
publish it in a coherent way so that the reader
understands the information. The reader can
determine the rationale of the research study
itself. So, while you write down your own
research report, keep in mind the following
factors well.
•The report will agree realistically. Its report
would be real based on the data obtained in the
study.
•It will be complete. The researcher should be
aware that all the things are included as per
purpose of the research study.
•It will be short as possible. This does not mean
that it is necessary to summarize without
discussing the necessary issues. It is big enough
to discuss essential issues in details but short
for unnecessary subject matters.
•The language of the report would be so
clear and understandable. The report
should use words that take into account the
reader’s interest in reading the report.
•The researcher would be intellectually
honest.
•The report would be readable so that the
reader feels interested in reading it.
7 Steps to a Successful Research
Report
1. Choose a topic. It should be a subject
that you can understand and one that
interests you.
2. Make a plan. Create a calendar together
to map out the process.
•Check with teacher. You should double-
check the topic with the teacher.
•Conduct research and take notes. You can
use a range of resources—from books,
periodicals, and the internet—to do this.
Practice taking notes without copying
word-for-word to reduce the risk of
plagiarism.
•Outline the project. This will help you
organize the notes and thoughts.
•Write the report. Use the outline as a road
map.
•Edit and reread the report. Checking and
correcting mistakes are the hallmarks of a
good student.
Tips for Writing a Research
Report
•Define the context for the report.
As is obtainable when writing an essay,
defining your context for a research
report would help you create a detailed yet
concise document. This is why you need to
create an outline before writing so that
you do not miss out on anything.
Tips for Writing a Research
Report
•Define your audience.
Writing with your audience in mind is essential
as it determines the tone of the report. If you are
writing for a general audience, you would want
to present the information in a simple and
relatable manner. For a specialized audience, you
would need to make use of technical and field-
specific terms.
Tips for Writing a Research
Report
•Include significant findings.
The idea of a research report is to present
some sort of abridged version of your
systematic investigation. In your report, you
should include irrelevant information while
highlighting only the important data and
findings.
•Include illustrations.
Your research report
should include
illustration and other
visual representations of
your data. Graphs, pie 6

charts, and relevant 5

images lend additional 3

credibility to your 2

systematic investigation. 0
Tips for Writing a Research
Report
•Choose the right title.
A good research report title is brief, precise,
and contains keywords from the research. It
should provide a clear idea of your
investigation so that readers can grasp the
entire focus of your research from the title.
Tips for Writing a Research
Report
•Proofread the report.
Before publishing the document, ensure that
you give it a second look to authenticate the
information. If you can, get someone else to
go through the report, too, and you can also
run it through proofreading and editing
software.
