2. To learn how to work scientifically or systematically

4. To elevate your mental abilities by letting you think in

higher-order thinking strategies (HOTS) of inferring,
evaluating, synthesizing, appreciating, applying, and
creating
5. To improve your reading and writing skills

6. To be familiar with the basic tools of research and the

IMPORTANCE OF RESEARCH

Research is as important as any field of study. Its

significance cuts across all disciplines—engineering,
architecture, medicine, arts and sciences, education,
management, tourism, among others. It also benefits
all strata of society—people with diverse jobs,
different income rates, varying financial
status, or distinct social and political
capabilities. As such, following are
the importance of research:
1. Research provides a scientific basis for any practice or
methodology in any field or discipline.
This is important since an entire system or operation and all the
stakeholders of an
institution or organization are at stake. Without scientific basis,
someone may be affected or may suffer. For example, in the field of
medicine, a new drug must first be tested to determine its efficacy in
curing sickness before it can actually be prescribed.

2. Research is undertaken for the continuous development and

further productivity in any field.
Any system that will be utilized in any organization must first be tried
to determine its value and it must be better than the previous system
used. Simply, research is the result of advancing knowledge from the
past.
3. Research helps develop tools for assessing effectiveness
of any practice and operation such as psychological tests,
intelligence quotient tests, psychological assessments,
amongothers. This importance of research is observed in
behavioral science, physical science, and others as well.

4. Research provides solutions to problems concerning

almost all issues encountered in the different areas of work.
Some issues include the tardiness of employees, incentives
given to the staff, sportsmanship among school athletes,
and implementation of a “clean and
green” program in school. This also applies to higher level
problems.
5. Research impacts decision-making. It is a common
mistake for people to make decisions without solid
information to back them up. It requires time, effort, and
sometimes money to gather the evidence needed for
making a sound decision. For example, for a teacher to
change his or her teaching methodology for the first-
period and last-period classes, he or he must conduct a
study considering the time element, enthusiasm to teach,
academic standing of the students, instructional aides
used, and several other factors.
6. Research develops and evaluates alternative
approaches to the educational aspects of any discipline.
This enables the students to gain broad knowledge and
specialized skills for safe practice. For example, research
can help determine whether lecture is a better
method than experiment in teaching Science.

7. Research aims to advance the personal and professional

qualifications of a practitioner.
 Write TRUE if the statement is correct, FALSE if it is incorrect.

_______1. Research entails an investigation of new facts leading to the

discovery of
new ideas, methods, or improvements.
_______2. The microsystem is the composition of chapters organized in a logical
and
scientific manner.
_______3. In settings like the community, school, or workplace, unusual
phenomena
may happen and can turn into potential problems.
_______4. Plagiarism constitutes claiming another person’s idea or intellectual
property as one’s own.
_______5. Research provides an artistic basis for any practice or methodology
in
any field or discipline.
_______6. According to Crawford, researchers serve different roles in a study
such
as principal investigator, member of a research team, financier of the
study, among others.
