III. Procedure
A. Preliminary Activities
1. Greetings
2. Prayer
B. Motivation
Question: How Do You Make These? (show picture of building, car and dress)
Answer: We have to come up with a design in order to make these
To make a dress a design must be made by a fashion designer. For car to be
made, a design must be made first. Before a building is constructed, a design
must first be made
Related with research, planning must be carried out cautiously because a
simple mistake can mess up or ruin the purpose of the whole project
Learning Competency: Apply the principles of a Research Design
Terms to Understand and Master Through This Lesson

- Research Design
- RCBD
- CRD
- Randomization
- Local Control
- Blocking
C. Analysis
I. What comes to mind when you hear the word design?
- Blueprint
- Drawing
- Diagram
II. Definition of Design (What is Design?)

- A design serves as a plan, guide throughout the project we are going to
make
- Research design is the plan, structure and strategy of investigation

conceived so as to obtain answers to research questions and to control
variance
- Is a set of methods and procedures used in collecting and analyzing

measures of the variables specified in the research problem
- Is a systematic approach that a researcher uses to conduct a scientific

study
III. Experimental Design

- Refers to the complete sequence of steps undertaken to answer the
research problem. It involves the logical structure and organization of an
experiment
- It is a detailed plan of the sampling procedures, data collection and date

analysis followed by investigator during the actual experimentation.
IV. What Are the Functions of the Research Design and Experimental Design?
- It provides direction during actual experimentation
- It allows a gain of maximum information relevant to the problem at

minimum cost
- It makes the statistical test of significance valid because it takes into

consideration all the assumptions that went into deriving the various
statistics
V. What are the Basic Principles of Experimental Designs?
1. Randomization
- Refers to the assignment of the experimental units to the

treatments or vice versa by chance
- It ensures a valid or unbiased estimate of population parameters
- It ensures the validity of the statistical test of significance
- It neutralizes in effect the influence of pre-existing differences

between samples might have on the experimental results
2. Replication
- Refers to the repetition of the basic experiment
- It is done to provide an estimate of variation among observations

on units treated alike, assessing the significance of observed
differences
3. Local Control
- Refers to the balancing grouping and blocking of experimental

units that are employed in the adopted design
VI. Other important words
1. Validity
- Ensures that what should be measured is being measured, it also

increases the range of application of the results to a wider range
of other similar conditions
2. Homogeneity
- Means the samples have the same characteristics except in their

response towards the treatment variable
3. Blocking
- Is the allocation of the experimental units to a block in such a

manner that the units within the block are relatively homogenous.
Some bases for blocking are height, age, sex, weight, differences
in soil fertility, and extent of exposure to sunlight
VII. What is the Difference Between CRD and RCBD
1. Complete Randomized Design (CRD)
- The treatments are randomly assigned to the experimental

subjects without restriction
- The experimental subjects are assumed to be homogenous with

respect to the factors that could affect the treatments being
compared
- *DISTINGUISHING FEATURE: The design is appropriate to use if

the experimental subjects have similar characteristics
- Give example (Use crumpled paper to represent eggs that all have
small sizes)
2. Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD)
- *DISTINGUISHING FEATURE: The experimental subjects are

divided into more or less homogenous groups called blocks
- The purpose of blocking is to have experimental subjects in a

group, all of which have similar characteristics
- So that the observed differences will be largely due to treatments
- Give example (Use crumpled paper to represent eggs, but one

group with small size and another group with bigger size)
D. Application
The students will answer the end-chapter activity in the module for 20-25 minutes
E. Evaluation
The teacher will provide a quiz in the LMS for the students to answer for 10-minutes
F. Assignment
1. Read on our next topic on Quarter 3, Week 2 of the Module (Sampling – How To
Get the Sample Size in a Given Population)
2. Prepare for a Quiz at the end the class next meeting.
G. Farewell to the students
