    This document is from Claret College of Isabela Senior High School. It provides an introduction to scientific research for a Grade 12 STEM class. The document distinguishes between basic research and applied research. Basic research aims to expand knowledge without necessarily having immediate applications, while applied research aims to solve practical problems. Examples of each type of research are provided. The document also outlines seven qualities of a good empirical research project, including that it should be novel, exhibit original thinking, have a logical research design, address a real-world problem, and have clearly written procedures to allow for replication. Students are given a learning activity to classify example research titles as basic or applied and explain their reasoning.

    Lesson : Basic Research versus Applied Research


    Qualities of an Empirical Research Project

    LEARNING TARGETS:

     Differentiate basic and applied research problems


     Recognize the application of research in solving problems
     Describe the qualities of a good research project
    VALUES INTEGRATION:
     Appreciate the contribution of research in the expansion of human knowledge
     Exhibit a sense of responsibility as a scientist

    EXPLAIN:

    BASIC RESEARCH VERSUS APPLIED RESEARCH


     When conducting a research paper, it is important to realize the end goal of research. It is
    the research conducted to contribute to the body of knowledge? It is in response to a
    societal problem? The answer to these questions will determine the difference between a
    basic research and an applied research. Both type of research follows the same steps of a
    scientific inquiry to arrive at a conclusion.
     BASIC RESEARCH is designed to produce results that expand knowledge about a
    particular phenomenon. It is a type of research that answers questions such as “What”,
    “Why”, and “How”. The results and conclusion of a basic research are used to further our
    understanding of scientific principles and processes. They may even be used to rectify
    understanding about a certain phenomenon. However, they may not have immediate
    commercial applications or may not necessarily solve a practical problem.
     APPLIED RESEARCH aims to solve a specific societal or environmental problem. The
    knowledge generated has a specific commercial value, , which may be used to develop a
    products, procedure, or service. The aim goal of an applied research is to discover a
    solution to a practical problem.

    QUALITIES OF AN EMPIRICAL RESEARCH PROJECT


     One of the goals of conducting research is to contribute to the existing body of
    knowledge. Thus, it is important for researches to exert effort, diligence, and hard work
    when conducting research projects. The qualities of an empirical research project are as
    follows:

    1. The research project should be novel. It should at the very least, contribute to the
    existing knowledge in science.
    2. It has to be exhibit originally well as critical and independent thinking.
    3. It should provide a background of the study, identify research problem and specific
    research questions, explain the significance of the study, synthesize and identify gaps
    in related literature, provide replicable and appropriate methodologies, interpret and
    analyze data accurately, and offer sound conclusion and recommendations.
    4. An empirical research must be started by looking into available scientific sources of
    information that will help the researcher understand a topic or a problem.
    5. An empirical research must have a research design that is logical and rational based
    on existing scientific principles and theories.
    6. One of the hallmarks of scientific investigation is that experimental results and
    conclusions must be verifiable and repeated by others. The research therefore
    contains methods that are clearly and succinctly written such that other researchers
    can repeat the procedures. Procedures must be carefully written for those who wish to
    replicate the study.
    7. A research project should address a real-world problem issue. The significance of a
    research project must be clearly stated based on a identified gap (or problem) in the
    existing body of knowledge. The research findings must be generalized and
    applicable to the society as a whole.
