FOREWORD

Benthel Asia School of Technolgy, Inc is a vibrant community of higher education research
leaders in various disciplines as it strengthen the culture of research and innovation. It
encourages student-researchers to work together with fellow students, experts, and
practitioners from other fields or disciplines in designing and conducting their research projects.
In this manner, they will not only be able to develop their collaborative skills but also be able to
integrate important ideas, methods, and techniques that will improve their research outputs and
contribute better to knowledge production.

The implementation of the K to 12 programs has been in full swing with the addition of Grade 11
beginning last school year 2016-2017. One of the new subjects in Grade 11 is Practical
Research, qualitative Research. On the other hand, Quantitative Research, Research Project,
and Capstone Project are also offered in Grade 12. Based on the competencies from the
Department of Education (DepEd), students are expected to manifest undertaking and learned
skills in their research subjects. The concrete evidence is research output.

This move has been taken to adapt to the blended modality – a setup where students can
continue their formal education face to face and by utilizing Quipper (LMS)

The school has launched #LIONS as the hashtag for this initiative to integrate the core values
of the school upon conducting their research.
“LIONS” means:

L - leadership

I – Integrity

O – optimism

N – nurturance

S – sustainability

Annex 1
ONLINE LEARNING RESEARCH GUIDELINES, REQUIREMENTS, and GRADING SYSTEM
Note: This sheet shall be uploaded to the students’ LMS for guidance and compliance. Students are encouraged to
let their parents or guardians go over more of this sheet for guidance and consent.

I. Research Study Guidelines

1.The Research Teacher shall provide and comprehensively discuss the new research
guidelines and requirements to the students in accordance with the current learning
platform.
2. The research guidelines will be the minimum content that must be complied with for the
conduct and documentation of the study unless otherwise there are limitations that may
inevitably inhibit the students to conform to the guidelines. (See Guidelines, Deadlines and
Grading System on the succeeding pages)
3. In the unending pursuit of research excellence, there will be a ‘one team, one research
paper’ scheme. This means that each team must create one research paper. (See
Guidelines, Deadlines and Grading System on the succeeding pages)

II. Revised Guidelines and Compliance Requirements for Research Courses

1. There will be a ‘one team, one research paper’ scheme. Amidst blended modality,
Benthel Asia School of Technology, Inc’s commitment to research and innovation shall
be continued in the following arrangements:
1.1. In every class, one research paper must be created in a team following the
prescribed format evident in this document.
1.2. At the start of class, each team will be proposing their topic suggestions for
their research. The topics will take inspiration of #LIONS which represent the
core values: leadership, integrity, optimism, nurturance and sustainability. The
topics shall be proposed and approved by the research teacher.
1.3. Before the research outputs’ making by teams, there will be a series of face
to face and asynchronous activities utilizing the LMS (Quipper) in preparing
students in the research outputs’ making.
1.5. Students are encouraged to ask questions or clarifications and give
suggestions and comments before the start of research output making.
1.6. Teams having 4-6 members will be formed for the entire school year working
the following areas of responsibility:
For all strands:
First Semester

 Nature of Inquiry
and Research
Semi-  Finding Answers
Prelim  Identifying the
Final through Data Collection
Inquiry and Stating
the Problem

 Learning from
Others and
Reviewing the
Literature
 Reporting and Sharing
 Understanding Data
Midterm Final Findings
and Ways to
 Final Oral Defense
Systematically
Collect Data
 Research Proposal
Defense

1.7. Team Formation Scheme:

Step 1: During the subject orientation, the research teacher will ask the class
four to five (4-5) volunteers who wish to lead the research team for the entire
semester. The team leader’s job description will be briefly discussed by the
teacher to the class.
Step 2: Research teacher will generate the number of members for each team
depending on the class size with at least 5 members and at most 8 members per
team.
Step 3: List of members for each team will be randomly generated by the
research teacher. Groupings are determined based on random selection. A
randomizer team member’s names generator will be used (Link:
https://www.randomlists.com/team-generator) to ensure equal chance of being
selected.

Moreover, research teachers may add some modifications especially in the

selection of team leaders, and other necessary mechanisms.

1.8. Every after teams’ submissions and research teachers’ checking, a

discussion will follow to address some suggestions, comments by the research
teachers and students.

1.9. Usually, every after a chapter is done, a feedbacking per group will follow.
This will highlight students’ learning, comments, and some observations on each
chapter of the research paper.
 2.0 The students are to follow the prescribed paper format given. (See Research
Paper Guidelines and Technicalities on the succeeding pages)

2. Deadlines are duly set by the Research teacher and should be communicated to the
research classes through the online learning platform. For other activities outside
Quipper, Research teachers will also be utilizing Facebook messenger.
3. Compliance to the deadlines and deliverables should be duly checked by the Research
teacher on the timeline established together with the guidelines. (See Research
Timeline and Gantt Chart on the succeeding pages)
4. Research teams will be given pre-determined names of Statistician as to be endorsed
and announced by the Research Teacher during the Orientation Week.

5. Deadline for the submission of the final copy of the research will be a week before the
schedule of Proposal Defense and Oral Defense.

First Semester

Proposal Defense:

October 16-19, 2023
