Choosing a Research Topic
You will conduct your library work to come up with three research topics that are quantitative in nature.
You must be able to discuss your quantitative research titles based on your understanding of the
characteristics of quantitative research and the nature of variables. The collected literature must support
the explanation of the choice of your research topics.
Standards

Task Context
Since you will most likely write a lot of research papers throughout your student life, the skill of
coming up with an appropriate research topic is highly advantageous as a student researcher.
Mastering this skill can help you come up with strong, valuable, and purposeful research in any given
field. Whatever specialization you plan to pursue in your tertiary level, knowing the nature of
quantitative research will allow you to easily identify the variables to study and construct a well-
founded research that is supported by credible literature.
