A. Preparatory Activities

1. Review

Ask:
· What are the distinct characteristics of inquiry and research?

· What relates or connects these two ideas?

2. Motivation

Ask:

· Do you listen, watch or read news? What do you think are

the issues in our community today?

B. Developmental Activities

1. Activity

Group Activity: Group the class into 5 groups. Each group will be given an editorial cartoon in which they
must interpret together. Each group will choose a reporter to share their insights in class.

Ask:

· How can these issues affect you as a student? your community? the society as a whole?

Explain to the class that issues like in the pictures affect individuals and the society as a whole. People
need answers to describe these phenomena, their implications in daily living and how can these be
controlled or given solutions. Relate that the way to address these is though research.

Comprehensively discuss using powerpoint presentation the importance of research.

Give contextualized instances or examples that are relevant to the daily lives of the students.
