READY TO LAUNCH!
• research problems must be specific and the
background of the study should be anchored
with key issues, major findings and
controversies surrounding your research
problem.
• Identifying your research problem could be
challenging and should be guided by broad
sources of inspiration
ACTIVITY:
Today, you were told by you mom to prepare
your own breakfast. After getting out of the
bed, you rushed in the kitchen and beat some
eggs. While doing that, you’ve realized how
tiring it is to do such “beating of egg.” You
thought that this is actually a problem since it
brings discomfort and uneasiness. Read the
discussions below to help you write a research
title and background of the study.

The problem on “beating the egg,” is a

personal experience. More often, at your level
research problem can be thought out of a
personal encounter or experience. Try to write
a research title about the problem about the
“tiring beating of egg.”
TO FACILITATE THE SELECTION OF THE PROBLEM TO
WHICH THE STUDY TO BE ANCHORED, CONSIDER THESE
BROAD SOURCES OF INSPIRATION:
CHECKLIST/USEFUL TIPS FOR DRAFTING A GOOD TITLE
FOR A RESEARCH PAPER

• Simple and direct

• Interesting and informative
• Specific, accurate, and functional
• Concise, precise, and should include the main
theme of the paper
CHECKLIST/USEFUL TIPS FOR DRAFTING A GOOD TITLE
FOR A RESEARCH PAPER

• Not misleading or misrepresentative

• Avoid whimsical or amusing words
• Avoid nonstandard abbreviations and unnecessary
acronyms (or technical
• jargon)
• SPICED (Setting, Population, Intervention,
Condition, End-point and Design)
CHECKLIST/USEFUL TIPS FOR DRAFTING A GOOD TITLE
FOR A RESEARCH PAPER

• Place of study and sample size should be mentioned

only if it adds to the
• scientific value or the title
• Important terms/keywords should be placed in the
beginning of the title
• Descriptive titles are preferred to declarative or
interrogative titles

YOUR ANSWER SHEET.
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY BOS
• The BOS provides the introduction or the basic
information about the study and discusses the
rationale for choosing the study.
• It answers the question: “Why did you conduct the
study?” It is composed of at least three para- graphs
(DepEd Action Research Presentation, 2017).
LET’S GET BACK TO THE “TIRING BEATING OF EGG,” LET’S
TRY WRITING THE BACK- GROUND OF THE STUDY.
 THE 1ST PARAGRAPH PROVIDES WARM UP TO THE
READERS ON WHAT THE PROBLEM IS ALL ABOUT AND
THE CURRENT SITUATION.

• Breakfast is known to people as the most important meal of the day.

As the name suggests, breakfast breaks the overnight fasting period.
It replenishes your supply of glucose to boost your energy levels and
alertness, while also providing other essential nutrients required for
good health (Batter Health Channel, 2020). Egg in every breakfast
makes an easy and simple preparation. At a bigger perspective, the
use of egg in bakeries and pastry is a necessity. Egg beating and
whipping is part of food industries.
 THE 2ND PARAGRAPH DISCUSSES THE EXISTENCE
OF AN UNSATISFACTORY CONDITION, A FELT NEED
OR PROBLEM (A GAP OR DISCREPANCY) THAT
REQUIRES A SOLUTION. PERHAPS IT SPEAKS OF
THE REALITY.
• One of the common breakfast preparation is scrambled egg since it is
easy and simple. It is known to people who are having busy life and
need to eat breakfast in a less complicated manner. Scrambled egg or
omelet only needs salt, pepper, and egg as ingredients. However, the
tasky part is the beating of egg. Using a fork can just be fine. But at a
bigger scope such as in bakeries and pastries, using of fork can really
and indeed be tiresome. It takes time to have the work done whenever
fork is the only thing to be used.
THE 3RD PARAGRAPH DISCUSSES THE REASONS FOR CONDUCTING THE STUDY--A CON- VINCING CASE AS TO WH
YOUR RESEARCH WOULD CREATE VALUABLE AND USEFUL KNOWLEDGE. THIS IDENTIFIES THE PROBLEM/S WHICH
WILL BE ADDRESSED BY THE RE- SEARCH IN TERMS OF INVESTIGATING OR TESTING AN IDEA; TRYING OUT
SOLUTIONS TO A PROBLEM; CREATING A NEW PROCEDURE OR SYSTEM; EXPLAINING A PHENOMENON; OR A
COMBINATION OF ANY OF THESE.
• It seems that using of fork in beating eggs can be
tasky and tiring especial especially in food industries
that make food and pastries. Making an improvised
egg beater can be of help. Convenience is needed on
this fast paced world. This study aims to determine the
impact of the improvised egg beater in beating eggs.
