S.M.A.R.T. Goal Questionnaire

Goal:

1. Specific: What will the goal accomplish? How and why will it be accomplished.2. Measurable: How will you measure whether or not the goal Has been reached (list at

least two indicator)?3. Achievable: is it possible? Have others done it successfully? Do you have the necessary

knowledge. Skills, abilities, and resources to accomplish the goal? Will meeting the goal challenge you without defeating you?

4. Results-focused: What is the reason, purpose or benefit of accomplishing the goal? What is the result (not activities leading up the result) of goal?

5. Time Bound: What is the established completion date and does that completion date create a practical sense of urgency.

Introduction

After choosing your project study, It would be very easy to write the chapter 1, which is the introductory part of the study, It consists of introduction and background of the study, Conceptual Framework, Statement of the problem or objective of the study, Significance of the study , scope and delimitations and definition of term.

Background of the Study

This section includes the setting of the identified researched project. The presentation should be directed into what the problem is investigating. The flow of discussion should naturally lead to the presentation of the problem. It briefly expressed the need to undertake the study about the said problem.

It should be starts with an introduction or opening statement about the main topic leading to the specific topic and the identification of the nature of the proposal .it is followed by a discussion on the specific topic leading to the problem definition. Finally, a solution is proposed to solve the problem and its corresponding strategy.

Significance of the study

This section the researchers expresses the value or the importance of the research study. It is where the significant contribution of the study is enumerated.it consists of explanation and discussion of the following: the rationale, timeless and relevance of the study; who are beneficiaries and what are their benefits; possible contribution to the body of knowledge and possible implications.

The use of the following phrases could help express the significance of the study:

The result of the study help them realized… The study will provide…. It will likewise serve… This study will contributed to…

Scope and Limitations:

The scope identifies the boundaries or coverage of the study while delimitations define the constraints or weaknesses which are not within the control of the researcher; therefore they are not expected to be covered by the study.

In other words the scope and limitation defines what the study all about, where and when the study is to be conducted and who the subjects are or whom the study being made. Also included is a brief statement of the reason why the study is conducted and how it will be resolved.

The use of the following phrases could help express the scope:

The study will focus on It includes The study consists of The coverage of the study

The use of the following phrases could help express the limitation:
