Research Framework and Methodology .pptx Situation Analysis.

The research framework and Methodology, These two elements serve as the backbone of study, guiding its design and execution, and ultimately determining its validity and reliability.

The Research framework, also known as theoretical or conceptual framework, provides the overall direction for the study. It outlines the key concept, theories, or ideas that that underpin the research, and maps the research, and maps out how these are related to each other. it provides a lens through which the researcher views the world and shapes the questions they ask, the data they collect, and how they interpret this data.

On the other hand, the research Methodology, refers to the specific procedures or techniques used to identify, select the process, and analyze information. It includes the research design, the sampling method, the data collection technique, and the statistical tools used for data analysis. The methodology ensures that the research is conducted in a systematic, logical, and unbiased manner.

Together, the research framework and methodology form the blueprint of the research. they ensure that the study is grounded in existing knowledge, follows a clear and coherent structure, and employs rigorous and appropriate methods.
As we delve deeper into these topics, we will explore their importance in ensuring the quality and integrity of research, discuss various types of research frameworks and methodologies, and provide practical tips for developing your own. Whether you are a seasoned researcher or a beginner, understanding these elements is key to conducting effective and impactful research.
What are some common research designs used in research methodology?
Research design is a critical aspect Research methodology as it provides the overall structure for the procedure the researcher follows.
Experimental Design, This design is commonly used in scientific research where the researcher manipulates one variable and observe the effect on another variable. It is typically used to establish cause and effect relationship.
Quasi Experimental Design, Similar to the experiment design, but lacks of elements of random assignment. It's often used when it's not practical or ethical to conduct a fully controlled experiment.
Descriptive design, This involves gathering detailed information about specific phenomenon or behavior without manipulating any variables. Surveys, case study, and observational research fall into category.
Correlational Design, This used to study the relationship between two or more variables without manipulating any of them. It can reveal patterns of association, but it does not establish causation.
Longitudinal Design, In this design, researchers conduct several observations of the same subjects over period of time, sometimes lasting many years
Cross sectional design, This involves looking at different groups of people who differ in one key characteristic at one specific point in time
Remember, the choice research design depends on the res

1. Research Framework and Methodology Situation Analysis

2. Introduction Children are the most important resources for the future and we must build a sustainable environment that will nurture their full development. This is the central theme of Megatrends for the Filipino child which Identifies current and emerging social, economic and political forces and institutions and their impact on children. The survival of the Filipino child in the year 2020 would depend on the appropriate policy and programmed alternatives that support positive trends and the introduction of intervention to forestall negative ones. Rapid changes in the environment require planning to identify opportunities ,threats, and needed action that support the desired vision for our children. As the UNDP Human Development report states, attending to the future draws immediate attention to the present”. UNDP 1994

3. Research Framework and Methodology The research framework begins with a vision of what the Filipino child today would be the year 2020. it supports the vision of the Filipino child by the year 2000. a projection of multi-sectoral body which drafted the Philippine plan of action for children(PPAC in 1990.

The vision consists of desired values and attitudes, such as following: imbued with spirituality and moral uprightness: thinking, and creative in community life and nation-building: global outlook among others.

4. Developmental Framework The vision of the Filipino in the year 2020 is examined in the light of the recent international for and documents. Table 1 A vision for the Filipino adult in the year 2020 Qualities of Institution in 2020 that would support the vision at home with one’s cultural identity a blending of East and West. Imbued with Spiritual and moral uprightness. Enterprising, creative and articulate Responsible and aware of rights and obligations. Caring, sharing and nurturing Has a global outlook Independent / autonomous in thinking and outlook Economically self-sufficient Active in community life and nation building Well balance individual Self reliant Institution for equitable economic growth and moral Integrity. The family as a core institution. Other key institutions government, mass media, and church. Education catalyst for humanistic and sustainable development. Institutions that would faster cooperation and dialogue between government, business and citizenry. Alternative grassroots institution for economic social and political mediation. Democratic institution that promote pluralism, justice, equity and social responsibility.

5. Coverage of the study The stud focuses on eight (8) areas which can be considered as having immediate and far impact on children future. They more revolutionary changes now happening in our society have been observed in these areas; GENDER ISSUES AND FAMILY RELATIONS Democratic and fertility trends Education and literacy Communication Technology Health care Social welfare and Development Biotechnologies Politico- cultural Politico-Economic Energy and Environment

6. Prospective Research Methodology as a study, the focus was collective choices, option and other analysis. A prospective study has four characteristic; It is long term; it is global; it is qualitative; and lastly, It is based on voluntary actions as the voluntary act of studying future changes. The prospective analysis with the frame of 24 years focused on Megatrends that will have impact during the coming two decades. The approach was supported qualitative analysis and scenario building. The Integrated report was prepared by a core research staff of Asian Institute of Journalism and Communication(AIJC). The task included identifying complementary issues, trends and policy and programmed option; convening and process workshop proceeding; and integrating research staff’s report with the experts papers.

7. Situation Analysis THE GLOBAL ENVIRONMENT Child right and welfare are now on the priority agenda of the global community. With the end of the cold war and emergence of global economy. More resources are being re-channeled to social development. Still there are development that threaten the survival of children ethnic conflict natural and man made disaster such as unabated degradation of natural resources and increasing global terrorism. United Nation agencies are now redefining their vision and mission statements as well as program to be able to effectively address the complexity of today’s developmental challenges. A review of these emerging thrusts shows their complementarities with child survival protection and development goals. As the lead UN agency for the children’s interests,. UNICEF is formulating a new mission statement that will guide’s its work for the next century. Initial discussions point to the direction of giving priority attention to the girl child as a concern the promotion gender quality and adult women as directed object of UNICEF program support not simply as mothers and care-givers UNICEF agency will also link with the culture of Peace.

It nearly eradicate poliomyelitis and dracunculiasis (guinea-worm disease) It provide 1.5 billion more people with iodized salt to prevent such iodine deficiency disorders as mental retardation and goiter. It made several thousand hospitals” baby-friendly by requiring them to encourage and facilitate breastfeeding. it stayed on schedule in efforts to provide universal access to safe drinking water by decade’s end. It saved a million children’s lives each year by improving families to threat diarrheal dehydration salt.

9. The Philippine Environment If the picture of happy, healthy and active children is an indicator of a country’s development, then the country still has to exert greater effort it’s vision of Philippines 2000 everyday, almost 300 infant die not of starvation or natural disaster but easily preventable disease, such as pneumonia, diarrhea and measle. Lack of vitamin A. Causes irreversible blindness in 17 children everyday, some 12 million children are undernourished and 57 infants out of every 1000 live birth in 1990 died. Some 16 million Filipino have no access to safe water facilities and many as 19 million have no sanitary toilet. Some 1.25 million school age children were out of school in 1994. The situation indicate the urgency of addressing the needs of the most vulnerable sector of society-our children (0-17years old) who comprise 46 percent (30 Million) of our total population of 64.9 million(as of 1992) The Social Reform Agenda SRA has adopted the Minimum Basic Need(MBN) Approach as monitoring instruments in the fight against poverty. It entails a set of 33 indicators categorized into basic needs which directly relate with child survival, protection and development. The improvement in our country economy is expected to be translated into concrete measure which will improve the quality of life, especially of the 4.6 million families which still live below the poverty threshold. Deprived of basic necessities of life.

10. According to National Statistic Coordinating Board (NSCB) the poverty threshold increased by 51 percent between 1988 and 1991 Economic inequity also worsened during the same period. The national income share of the poorest 40 percent of the population dropped from 17.5 percent to 13 percent. On the other hand, the richest 2 percent increased their share from 47 percent to 55 percent.
