How to make a Significance of the study:

Examples:

Example A The research study could provide information on the issues of Voice-over-
Internet Protocol technology particularly on the integrity, vulnerability and
security of VoIP calls. Further, this study would also be a review on the VoIP
Technology present and service providers based in the United
States, particularly in local area.This study would be beneficial to the
Commission on Telecommunication in the city as this study enhance the
knowledge of the telephony providers and users about the possible issues on
VoIP Technology. Furthermore, this study would be beneficial to the telephony
providers and the users as this study would provide the necessary information
on the different threats and attacks in VoIP technology. This would expectedly
heighten the awareness of the providers and the users to equip a counterattack
to possible threats. To the future researchers, this study can provide baseline
information on the recent status of VoIP technology.

2 Tips in Writing the Significance of the Study

1. Refer to the statement of the problem

Your problem statement can guide you in identifying the specific contribution of your study. You
can do this by observing a one-to-one correspondence between the statement of the problem
and the significance of the study.

For example, if you ask the question Is there a significant relationship between the teachers
teaching style and the students long quiz scores in Mathematics? then the contribution of your
research would probably be a teaching style or styles (among say, three teaching styles you
evaluated) that can help students perform better in Mathematics. Your research will
demonstrate that that teaching style really works. That could be a groundbreaking approach that
will change the way teachers teach Mathematics which many students abhor.

2. Write from general to specific contribution

I learned this technique from a former professor while in pursuing my masters degree. It
works this way:

Write the significance of the study by looking into the general contribution of your study,
such as its importance to society as a whole, then proceed downwardstowards its
contribution to individuals and that may include yourself as a researcher. You start off
broadly then taper off gradually to a specific group or person.
