CHAPTER III Research Design

This chapter presents the method of research used in the study, sources of data, data gathering instrument and statistical treatment of data. Methods of Research The method of research used in the study was the descriptivenormative kind using a questionnaire-checklist as the primary instrument to gather the needed data and information. This type of research was most appropriate for this study since it is concerned with knowing the prevailing conditions, of a thing, event or place. The present study aimed to knowing the practices of school canteen management in the public elementary schools in Marikina City District II, hence, the descriptive type of research is the most feasible one to use. Sources of Data The sources of data and information for this study were the 60 school teachers and 30 canteen personnel. Teachers shall be chosen based on Slovin’s formula while canteen personnel shall be in their total population. Table 1 Distribution of the Respondents Respondents

Based on the data on the table, out of 90 sample respondents, 60 were taken as teachers or 67% while 30 were considered for the canteen personnel with 33%. Data Gathering Instruments The questionnaire-checklist constructed by the researcher primarily served as the data gathering instrument for this study. This instrument was developed after having read related studies and perused different reference materials in school canteen management. Also, the researcher consulted her adviser as she went through the process of constructing his questionnaire. The suggestions given by her adviser were taken and incorporated

into

the

questionnaires

for

purposes

of

refinement

and

improvement. The researcher then made the first draft and had it reproduced in 10 copies for validation purposes. The 10 set of questionnaires were given to the teachers who were excluded as final respondents. After the validation process, the researcher made the final copy for distribution to the target respondents. The developed questionnaire consists of queries on: 1. Queries on name of school and group where the respondents belong.

canteen practices in terms of quality and

quantity of food served, kinds of service rendered to the customers, prices of the commodities, utilization of canteen facilities, transparency of profit, and efficiency of coop staff. Data Gathering Procedure The researcher sought permission to field her questioner from the school district, Marikina City. After obtaining the official permission from the schools district supervisor, Dr. Lauro Z. de Guzman, the researcher fielded the questionnaires to her target respondents. To obtain a high percentage of retrieval, the researcher personally followed-up the respondents in their respective schools. Further, the researcher constructed informal interviews to gather more data and information about the subject of her research.

Statistical Treatment of Data After gathering data information needed in the study, they were tallied, tabulated, analyzed and statistically treated using the following tools: Weighted Mean . This was used to determine the status of the school

canteen practices

as

perceived

by

the

teachers and canteen

personnel. This was also the formula in knowing the pupil’s performance.
