Chapter 1THE INTRODUCTIONThe purpose of the introduction is to supply the reader with the history pertinent to the problem being studied; to inform the reader of the nature of the problem being studied; to inform the reader the extent literature dealing with the problem; and to inform the reader of the architectural significance of the problem. The introduction should communicate the authors comprehensive grasp of the field(s) pertinent to the problem being investigated.BACKGROUND OF THE STUDYThis is a general introduction to the topical area. It is a general, broad statement that provides an overview of the area involving your study. Guiding questions for this area are:1. Why is this an important area?2. What has been the historical development of the topic?3. Are there different points of view about the topic?4. Have there been significant investigations, studies, or reports concerning the topical area?5. What is the current status of the area of your interest?6. What are the major outstanding concerns in the general area?

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEMSince the introduction has given a broad, general background to the study, this should be very specific in nature. The statement of the problem might begin with the words, "The problem of the study is...." or "This study will address the problem of..." Guiding questions for this area are:1. Does the problem pose significance to architecture?2. Will the problem present data that explains previously unexplained facts?3. Will the problem serve as a point of departure for the study that leads to the design solution?You can start by introducing the Core Problem as a general overview. Provide a MINIMUM OF THREE SPECIFIC statement of the problem.OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDYThis section provides you with an opportunity to tell the reader the overall purpose of your study. The focus of the study should be stated here in the form of Goal(s) or Aim(s) and the objectives of how to achieve the goal(s) must be stated. For a thesis, include research questions to be answered and/or hypotheses. Guiding questions are:Is the question directly related to the review of the literature?1. Does the question help clarify the problem statement?2. Does the question project a bias?3. Is it possible to misinterpret the question?4. Is the objective specific and clearly stated?5. Is the objective directly related to the review of the literature?6. Is each hypothesis clearly stated?7. Are the hypotheses testable?Provide a MINIMUM OF THREE objectives. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDYThis section provides answers as to what the study will contribute. It should specifically state the value of the study. Why is this study important? CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK A conceptual framework occurs when a researcher links concepts from literature to establish evidence (which represent self-perceived solutions/approaches) to support the need for the research question (which is/are yet to be validated thru applicable tests). In the Architecture Thesis program, these research questions are the STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM/S. The conceptual framework can be in any format like I-P-O (input-process-output, different from RESEARCH PARADIGM), simplified organigram or any representational diagrams.

InputProcessOutput

As can be seen in the figure above, the fundamental components of systems theory are the:(a) identification of the system,(b) inputs (concepts), process (often called throughput), output definitions, and a feedback loop.If somebody else has already and linked these concepts with valid previous research and studies, they made a theoretical framework which can be used as a "ready made map" for other future scientists/researchers to guide their own research questions. A theoretical framework also shows how the current researcher links the different concepts, theories, principles, findings from previous existing valid studies (based from a thorough REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE) in order to support his/her research questions. A theoretical framework can also give the reader a summary of the researchers comprehensive review of related literature.PROJECT SCOPE, LIMITATIONS & DELIMITATIONSProject Scope explains the project component included in the project. The spaces are described and determined by their hierarchal importance: principal activity, progression spaces and auxiliary areas.Limitations these are constraints to the study that are beyond your control but that may influence the data. Limitations may emerge at any time during your study.Delimitations deliberately self-imposed constraints on the research. You define the boundaries in the problem area within which the study will be done, and the population or situation to which the findings may apply.DEFINITION OF TERMSThe First Part should include the TECHNICAL DEFINITION OF THE PROPOSED TITLE. The Second Part should include IMPORTANT TERMS AND CONCEPTS USED IN THE STUDY are adequately analyzed and defined. Assign a precise meaning to commonplace words of importance. You could also INCLUDE THE ABBREVIATIONS used within the research work.

Chapter 2THE LITERATURE REVIEWThis chapter includes all types of materials reviewed, conceptual literature which came from books. Related studies both local and foreign consisting mainly of peer reviewed journals. Your aim is to show how the present study relates to the existing knowledge and previous studies in terms of both similarities and differences. The formal sub-sections for this chapter are; REVIEW OF THE LITERATUREMust be comprehensive in the light of the chosen variables with a view to surfacing the research blankspots (unexplored area) and blindspots (conflicting areas in the literature). You can present this section in a thematic manner or sequential manner.CASE STUDIESResearch familiarization and graphic documentation of selected design or work already executed related to the proposed project. A descriptive narrative about the sample study should consist of the following: description of the scenario, background of the place, previous and existing conditions, implications, impact, outstanding qualities and conclusion. In architecture, the most important things to analyze in any Case Study consist of the following: Environment and micro-climate User behavior and requirements Utility and space enhancement Form and Function Horizontal and vertical circulation Site Planning and Landscape detailing Structural details such as Column and Beam Design, Steeland Composite structures Building Services such as Fire Alarm system, HVAC, Water supply systems Design detailing considering the Barrier-free environment Socio-economic profile of user group Parking details and standardsRESEARCH PARADIGM (simulacrum or hypothesized modelif applicable)SYNTHESISA synthesis that describes the relevance of the reviewed scholarly works/literature and case study scenarios is presented clearly and is sensibly related to the problem area.

CHAPTER 3THE RESEARCH METHODThis chapter must include details of your experimental methodology. The methods and procedure can be entitled descriptively according to the specific research and publication project. This section must outline in detail the methods and procedure by which the design decisions were accomplished. An adequate methods and procedures section should indicate what criteria were employed in data collection, how the data were analyzed and reduced, e.t.c.The purpose of the methods and procedures section is to place the entire research and publication process in public domain so that others can attempt to replicate the process if they so choose, or so that others can systematically vary from his procedure to test the effects of alternative approaches to the same problem.RESEARCH DESIGNUsed Methodology: The Sample, Measure and Design ProceduresLet the reader know the type of design you are using and why that research design was chosen.Population/Sample/(Participants, if qualitative) - carefully identify the sample and describe in detail the manner in which it was chosen. Naturally, if you are including all possible subjects, you are dealing with a population. In this case, you describe the characteristics of the population.Describe each and every step taken to do your study. It is a type of "road map" that others must follow if they choose to replicate your study. Include the steps you took to contact the population/sample in your study, how you obtained their cooperation, how the instruments(s) were administered, how the data was handled as it was returned, how follow-ups were handled, etc. Copies of all letters, instruction sheets, etc. should be placed in the appendices.DATA GATHERINGTools/Instruments of Research, SourcesInstrument (Data Collection, if qualitative) - identify each instrument you will use to measure the variables in your study. There should be a separate subsection for each instrument. Information should be provided regarding the development of the instrument, the history of its use, data regarding its validity and reliability, data regarding how the instrument is administered and scored and anything else that will give insight into its appropriateness. Additionally, provide a rationale for the selection of your instruments. Generally, a copy of the instrument should be included in the appendix (for the proposal and the final thesis). If you are conducting qualitative inquiry, explain your data collection procedures.Example (taken from Marishirl Tropicales, 2010): A semi-structured interview guide consisting of in-depth descriptive questions (see Appendix VI) will be formulated concerning the wise leadership behaviors of the principals. Teachers will also be interviewed on the extent to which their principal employs wisdom in their leadership. A permit (see Appendix II) to conduct the interview will be properly secured in order to maximize the time allotted for the interview3.1.5.1 Interview Protocol (example)The researcher will inform the interviewees of the nature and relevance of the research which they will be part of. They will also be requested to sign the consent form (see Appendix II). A semi-structured interview will be used to guide the interview process. According to Cooper and Schindler (2003)DATA PROCESSINGSynthesis, Data Analysis or Mode of AnalysisDiscuss how the data will be analyzed and include any statistical treatments.Example (taken from Belinda Castro, 2010): Using SPSS version 17, Cronbach Alpha revealed the instruments reliability and internal consistency to be 93.5%, indicating that items measuring the constructs were reliable and internally consistent. Delineation of existing market segments within the shadow education marketplace called for two market segmentation methods, namely: the a priori market segmentation using binary logistic regression (Monahan, McHonrney, Stump & Perkins, 2007; Goldstein & Perin, 2008) and the posteriori segmentation using factor analysis
