A simple guide is that to use the present tense when referring to previously
published work and the past tense when referring to your present results. In the
thesis, you will normally go back and forth between the present and past tenses. Most
of the Abstract should be in the past tense because you described what you did and
what you found. On the other hand, most of the Introduction, Discussion, and
Conclusion should be in the present tense because these sections usually refer to

Abstract
The abstract is a brief explanation of the whole thesis. It should consist of a statement
of the problem and objective of the study, methodology, major findings and their
significance, and conclusions. Include sufficient details to convince the reader that your

collects and bind theses and make them available to other students in the school library.
The abstract should be less than 300 words, and typed single-spaced. It should not
normally include any reference to the literature, but if such references are necessary,

Introduction
A good introduction is a clear statement of the problem or project and why you are
studying it. The Introduction supplies sufficient background information to allow the
reader to understand and evaluate the results of the present study without needing to
refer to previous publications on the topic. It should contain the nature and scope of the
problem investigated and the objective(s) and justification of the study. The Introduction
is the proper place to define any specialized terms and concepts used in the thesis.
Background of the Locale
The first paragraph focuses on the problem of the study and introduces questions to be
addressed. There must be at least 2-4 questions raised that help clarify the problem.
Conceptual Framework
This section consists of the researcher’s own disposition on a problem after his
exposure to various theories that have bearing on the problem. It stems from the
This section discusses the importance of the study to society, the country, the
government, the community, the institution, the company concerned, the department
concerned, and the proponent himself. It expounds on the study’s probable impact to
education, technology, on-going researches, etc. It also gives the justification for the
study in terms of its contribution to the theory and practice. It touches on the
significance of the study to the researcher himself, what it does to his profession, and
It also rationalizes the objectives of the research with that of the statement of the
problem. It explains why research must be done in this area. It also shows detailed and
specific discussions on who benefits from the output of the study abs now they are
going to benefit.
Explained in this section are the nature, coverage, and time frame of the study. It
presents in brief the subject areas of investigation, the number of the respondents or
subjects involved the place, the time period or school year covered, and the rationale
researcher’s rationale for delimiting the scope of the study. As pointed out, a sufficiently
delimited study generally permits in-depth and thorough investigation within the
envisioned time frame while a study is too broad on coverage with too many
results that are unwieldy, insignificant, and inconsistent for purposes of generalizations
This section is the operational and conceptual definitions of the terms that are found in
the title of the study, including other unusual and technical terms.
This chapter starts with a very brief of introductory paragraph concerning the
researcher’s exploration of related foreign and local literature and studies on the
research problem. It states the main coverage of said chapter, to wit (1) Related
literature and (2) Studies. If no studies were included due to their non-availability, it is so
stated in the introductory part of the chapter, and the chapter’s heading is modified to
The chapter on Literature Review serves to tie together two things: what others have
done and what you plan to do. The review is supposed to lead somewhere, namely to
your own proposed research project and its justification. The review should be
organized by subjects, and the organization depends on the field and the nature and
quantity of literature available. Refer to several past theses to help you develop a writing
style that provides some diversity. Avoid repetitive sentences such as "According to
Ahmad (1956)...", "According to Busu (1962)..." or "Hall (1981) found that...” Newton
This section also presents the written work and studies that exhibit importance and
similarity with the proposed study. It also discusses the capabilities and limitations of
existing researchers, theories and paradigms that are related to the study. A brief
introduction should preview the type of literature that will be viewed, identifying the main
literature that made a great impact on the study. This part must include primary
research articles. Subsets of the literature are organized under sub-headings. Each
subset is concluded with a summary statement relating that section to your problem. At
the end of the chapter, a concluding paragraph summarizes the main findings that will
This section identifies the methods and activities that will be performed in order to
accomplish the project or the specified objectives. It informs the readers how the author
proceeded with the study. It typically includes sections on the sample of participants and
how they were obtained, instrumentation used (e.g survey, questionnaire, etc.) step-by-
step procedures in gathering and processing data, design and statistical treatment of
data. Activities in system methodology are also discussed which cover from problem

a statement of valid input to the program and the statement of the corresponding
output. The purpose of this phase in the software development is to analyze and

select among competing system features those that meet user requirements
within the development constraints. Deliverables of this phase are the functional
specifications for a system that meet user requirements that are feasible to
Specific analysis tools are used to illustrate the existing and the proposed
systems as well as the requirements of the project. The analysis tools that maybe
used for:

Project Schedule
The study involves different types of activities that together make up a project. Project
planning has tremendous values. A project without a plan is similar to a ship without a
compass. Project scheduling provides the mechanism for achieving the objectives and
deliverables of the project. The following is a list of deliverables that are generated
