INVESTIGATORY
PROJECT (SIP)
Giner Bryan C. Quitoy, LPT
Research Adviser
What is Scientific Research?
• It involves the performance of a methodical
study in order to prove or disprove a
hypothesis, or answer a specific question.

• Answers the questions “what”, “how” and


“why” through logical thinking
Pure vs. Applied Research
Motivation for Research (Stokes, 1997)

1.The quest for fundamental


understanding (pure research)
2.The consideration for use (applied
research)
The Scientific Method
The Scientific Method
• Observation

Citronella
The Scientific Method
• Formulating Research Questions
• Why does the Citronella plant repel mosquitoes?
• How does the Citronella plant repel the
mosquitoes?
• What are the active compounds in the Citronella
plant responsible for repelling mosquitoes?
• How many Citronella plants are needed to repel
substantial number mosquitoes?
The Scientific Method
•Literature Search
•Formulating Hypothesis
•Experimentation and Data Acquisition
•Data Analysis and Drawing Conclusion
Science Investigatory Project
(SIP)
•Science education is NOT just about
memorizing a collection of facts.

•Science is taught as way of thinking,


inquiry and a process.
Science Investigatory Project
(SIP)
Science experiments or investigations
conducted by students to address
problems in various discipline using
scientific method.
SIP CATEGORIES :
1.Physical Science
2.Life/Biological Science
3.Robotics and Intelligent Machine
Objectives:
•Stimulates interest in Science
•Provide educational opportunities
•Share what you have learned to
discuss a certain concept
•Application of concept learned
•Use of Scientific Method

work as one’s own forgery of
approval signature and fabrication
or falsification of data will not be
tolerated.
Title
•The title must be brief, simple and
catchy
•It has an objective or purpose.
•It should not be written too long or
too short.
Abstract
• The abstract should be one- or two-pages
paragraphs only
• Should consist of short, concise
description of the problem and its
solution.
• It must include the Purpose, Procedure
used, Results and Conclusion
Acknowledgement

number of each part
Chapter I - Introduction
• The introduction is about one page only wherein
it includes the background of the study and its
rationale
• It usually leads into the research problem.
Background of the Study
• States the rationale of the study
• It explains why the researcher chose this
study to work on

It should answer the following questions:

• How did you arrive at that kind of problem?


• Why do you like investigate that kind of
problem?
Statement of the Problem
• The statement of the problem has two categories
namely:
• The General Problem and Specific problems. Usually,
one general problem and three specific problems
which derived from the general problem.
• The research problems should be specific, reliable,
valid, measurable, objectively stated. It can be
question form or in a declarative statement
What are the characteristics of
a good problem?
✓ It should be great of interest to you.
✓ It should have practical value to you.
✓ It can be finished in the allotted time.
✓ It should be within your experience.
Significance of the Study
• It indicates how important is your
investigatory project for the people,
environment and community as a whole.
• It is really relevant in the changing world or
global impact into the field of science and
technology.
Scope and Delimitation
• It covers the range of your study/research. It
includes the period of the research, the
materials and the equipment to be used, the
subject of the study or the sample of the
study, the procedure and the statistical
treatment to be used.
