MODES OF COMMUNICATION |
- JOURNAL/RESEARCH ARTICLE - THESIS OR DISSERTATION - ORAL PRESENTATION - POSTER PRESENTATIONS |
|
|
- Reports are usually written following the style of a journal/research article in publications such ScienceDirect, American Chemical Society (ACS), Royal Society of Chemistry, which are read by professionals and experts in different disciplines such as chemistry, physics, and so on. - These publications are widely circulated ar observe the highest professional standards by conducting peer review. |
1. JOURNAL/RESEARCH ARTICLE |
|
|
- In the academe, these are revised after evaluation by a dissertation committee. |
2. THESIS OR DISSERTATION |
|
|
THE ADVANTAGES OF WRITTEN REPORTS ARE AS FOLLOWS: |
1. They form permanent records documenting the details of the inquiry. 2. They can be widely circulated. 3. They can be validated and endorsed by the scientific community. |
|
|
- Presenting studies in a conference or lecture in so little time.
- These may be limited to a specific audience-scientists, medical professionals, and the academe, not the general public. |
3. ORAL PRESENTATION |
|
|
PREPARATION FOR AN ORAL PRESENTATION |
1. Know your audience.

6. Manage your presentation time.
7. Dress appropriately.
8. Answer the questions raised by your audience to the best of your ability. |
|
|
- These are board type presentations highlighting only the most important findings of a research project. - These presentations allow the researcher to interact with the audience, and clarify certain points and misconceptions. |
3. POSTER PRESENTATIONS |
|
|
- A __________ is a simply a structured, formal document that explains what you plan to research, why it's worth researching, and how you plan to investigate it. |
RESEARCH PROPOSAL |
|
|
The ________ is your chance to demonstrate why your study is important to organizations that might be interested in funding or otherwise supporting your project. |
RESEARCH PROPOSAL |
|
|
- A ________ is important to ensure the smooth flow of the research process. |
RESEARCH PROPOSAL |
|
|
THE FOLLOWING ARE USEFUL TIPS IN PREPARING RESEARCH PROPOSAL (GUYATT, 2006) |
1. Pose a well-founded research question. 2. Identify appropriate supporting/funding agencies. 3. Demonstrate a multidisciplinary and collaborative approach. 4. Prepare a high-quality well-written proposal. 5. Establish your credentials, qualifications, and expertise, and create an excellent research track record. 6. Draft a solid and an effective review of related literature to demonstrate that your proposed study is feasible. 7. Be accountable for every aspect of your work. |

COMPONENTS OF A RESEARCH PROPOSAL |
- Proposed Title - Introduction - Methodology or Experimental Section - References - Budget Proposal - Gantt Chart - Flowcharts - Schematic Diagrams |
|
|
- It comprises 12 to 15 word title - must be suggestive of the purpose of the planned study and the overall goal of the inquiry. - It should be specific and self- explanatory |
PROPOSED TITLE |
|
|
- Contains the background of the study, its potential significance or contribution to existing knowledge, and its scope and limitations. |
INTRODUCTION |
|
|
- Research work involving real situations would thrive on financial support from research-affiliated organizations and government agencies, and non-government organizations |
BUDGET PROPOSAL |
|
|
- Timetable contains an itemized list of activities, planned in accordance with the expected outcomes and research objectives. |
GANTT CHART |
|
|
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN A GANTT CHART? |
- A Gantt chart always includes the start and end date of a project. - it divides the project into different groups of activities.
- The first activity of a project will be displayed on the top of the chart, the last one on the bottom.
- it includes a timeline on the top that shows the duration of the project and of the individual activities |
|
|
- Also known as diagrammatic representations are included to present the proposed stages of a research project. |
FLOWCHARTS |
|
|
SYMBOLS USED IN THE PREPARATION OF FLOWCHARTS: |
- OVAL/OBLONG- ARROW- DIAMOND- PARALLELOGRAM- RECTANGLE |
|
|
- Signifies start or end of process |
OVAL/OBLONG |
|
|
- Denotes connection between steps represented by symbols |
ARROW |
