I. The Problem
•Background of the study
The purpose of this is to help you
prove the relevance of your topic

~ Introduce your topic

~ Explain why your research is
important
~ Do a background check on your
topic
•Background of the Study
English is an intellectualized language for it covers
a wider range of learning than any other language.
This language is so elastic that it can be written,
broadcast, spoken and can be in any other form. It
can also be read in novels, encyclopaedias,
magazines, journals, dictionaries, newspapers and
even in the internet. This language serves as the
bridge that truly link the whole world so when it
comes to education, students encounter English
language because this tongue makes knowledge
more accessible and usable.
 The importance of this language should be
valued and used widely by the Filipino students
especially Filipino language is not an intellectualized
language itself. It is a global language that every
individual must be proficient. So to have a better
education in the Philippines, one has to know English
language very well. Just like what Ahmad (2009) has
said, “A person’s success in his chosen career as field
of endeavour is invariably link with his ability to
express and project his thought not only in written
but also in spoken English.”
•Statement of the Study
A problem statement is a
clear description of the issue
The 5 'W's can be used to
describe the issue
Statement of the Problem
The study aims to identify the effects of family
conflict. The problem areas are as follows:

• Who does the problem affect?

• What are the impact of the issue?
• What would happen if we didn't solve the
problem?
•Where is the issue occur?
•When does the issue occur?
• Why is it important to fix the problem?
•Significance of the Study
It talks about the importance
of the study.
It should determine who
benefits from the study and
how that specific audience will
benefit from its finding
•Significance of the Study
The main purpose of this is to help the
pharmacists to manage their inventory
information. This system will be able to
replace existing file system is it can help
the pharmacy to improve their inventory.
By using this system, user can solve most
of their problems while using current
system.
• Definition of Terms
Important terms only need to
defined in two cases:
a. When the term is not widely
known or understood
b. When the term has specific or
unique meaning in the context of
the study
( Acronym also needs to define
clearly)
II. Review of

METHODOLOGY
•Data Gathering Procedure

Three types of Data Gathering Procedure

1.Data Mining
Simply using an already published set of
data.

2. Interviewing
You can collect credible result from this data
gathering procedure
•Interview
To provide more insight and understanding of the
level of perception of Bs Math toward English
Language on 25th February, 2010, a formal interview
was conducted between the researcher and the Bs
Math students. Although the interview followed a
formal guide, the respondents were given the
opportunity to express their views independently and
were probed further through questions that arose from
the discussion. For their protection and privacy, an
interview consent form was signed that outlined the
usage of the data collected. The interviews were audio
recorded and notes were taken to enable further
analysis and interpretation without losing details.
3.Surveying
invloves gathering responses from subject
through a written meduim.

• Survey
The researcher will conduct a questionnaire
rating scales which includes the selected BS
Mathematics Major Students’ profile such as sex,
dialect used at home, preferred language to be
use at school and reading materials available at
home and the level of perception of the
respondents toward English language.
 The researchers will ask permission from
the respondents’ subject professor with
regards to the floating of the prototype
questionnaire. With the permission of proper
authority, the researchers will distribute
personally the questionnaire to the subjects.
After the questionnaire was filled up by the
students, the researchers will make a
summary of the information and the data will
be analyzed and interpreted statistically.
•Research Design
Three types of Research Design

1. Descriptive Design
- to describe the characteristics
of relevant groups
Experimental Design
 2. Exploratory Design
is systematic and flexible and
allows the researchers to
investigate whatever survey he
or she desires
Exploratory Research Design
According To Hughes (2004), most pharmacy
inventory decisions involve replenishment: how much to
order medicine, when to decide to order medicine, and
when to place the order. There are three costs associated
with pharmacy inventory; (1) carrying costs, (2) shortage
costs, and (3) replenishment costs. For instance, the costs
associated with running out of a medicine product used in
critical care might well involve increased morbidity and
mortality, clearly an unacceptable situation.
However, the basic tenets of these inventory control
systems should be examined by hospital pharmacy
managers and applied when appropriate. The availability of
microcomputers and relatively powerful spreadsheets will
increase the utility of complex models of inventory control
that are too complicated for manual calculations.
 3.Casual Design
determining the nature of the
relationship between the casual
variables and the effect
predicted
