I.Introduction
A. Activating Prior Knowledge
Now that you have your topic for your qualitative research, you can now formulate your
research problems. You have to formulate a general problem and at least three specific
problems. The specific problems can be studied in question form. For example:

General Problem: The study aims to explore the students’ images and views on chemistry.

Specific Problems:
1. What are the students images on chemistry based on their drawings?
2. What are the students’ views on chemistry?
3. What learning theories are embedded on these images?

Processing:
1. What do you observe in the formulation of problems?
2. Does the general problem give the overview of the research? What does it mean?
3. Why should you specify the problem?

B. Contextualizing Learning
E.Q. How is a clear statement of the problem in a qualitative research formulated?
II. Interaction
A.Development of Knowledge

Activity 2. Formulating the general and specific problems
Based on your chosen research topics, formulate the general and specific research
problems.

General Problem:

2. Why is it important to develop good research problems?

III. Integration
A. Synthesis.
A clear formulation of the problems is an important step in qualitative research
because this sets the direction and pace of the research.
Day 03 Aug. 11, 2016
Objectives:
 Write a research title.
 Formulating a clear statement of the problem.

I.Introduction
A. Activating Prior Knowledge
The teacher conducts a review of the past lesson. He asks the following questions:
1. What is a general research problem? Specific research problems?
2. How are general problem and specific research problems formulated?
3. What is the importance of the research problem in the entire research problems?

B. Contextualizing Learning
E.Q. How is a clear statement of the problem in a qualitative research formulated?

II. Interaction
A. Development of Knowledge
Now that you have formulated your research problems, you can now write your
working research title. I is called a “working title” because it can be revised or
modified as the study progresses.
