2 Making Recommendations
Lesson 3- Making Recommendations Based on Conclusions

This module will help the learners make recommendations based on the given
conclusions of their research study.

Learning Target

In this module, you are expected to make recommendations based on the

given conclusions of your research study.

Vocabulary List

The following term will be encountered in the lesson:

Recommendations
the suggestions or methods on how to handle the conclusion.
the critical suggestions regarding the best course of action in a certain situation
provides a beneficial guide that will not only resolve certain issues, but will also
result in a beneficial outcome
always based on certain data and cannot be speculated.
urge specific actions to be taken with regard to policy, practice, theory, or
subsequent research

Warming Up

Write T if the statement is true andF if the statement is false. Write your answer
in a separate sheet of paper.

_____1. Based on the findings and conclusions of the study, recommendations serve
as practical suggestions for future research in similar field.
_____2. Recommendations are envisioned to further improve the pertinent variables
that were the subject of the investigation undertaken.
_____3. Recommendations are not expressed in clear and concise terms.
_____4. Recommendations are relevant to the research problems and are feasible for
implementation.

_____5. The general recommendation may not be stated giving suggested measures
to concern agencies, institutions, or to the government that may lead towards
the betterment of society.

Learning About It

The results of the research from the logical findings and conclusions
need to have the corresponding recommendations from the researchers. This
will provide you ideas in writing your recommendations.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the findings and conclusions of the study, these serve as
practical suggestions for future research in similar fields. They are envisioned
to further improve the pertinent variables that were the subject of the
investigation undertaken.
Recommendations are expressed in clear and concise terms. They are
relevant to the research problems and feasible for implementation. The general
recommendations may also be stated giving suggested measures to concerned
agencies, institutions, or to the government that may lead towards the
betterment of society in general.
The researcher’s final recommendation is addressed to other
researchers who may want to pursue similar studies. Moreover, suggested
topics of interest or variables are given. In the case that the qualitative study is
conducted to propose an intervention program, the recommendation will be the
adaptation of said program.
Formulating the Recommendations of the Study
In preparing this part of your paper, remember that in making your
recommendations, you must show how your results support them. A
recommendation for a preferred alternative should include:
a. specific statements on what should be done, the steps required to
implement the policy, and the resources needed.
b. discussion of the benefits to the organization and what problems
would be corrected or avoided.
c. discussion of the feasibility of the proposed policy and
d. general statement about the nature and timing of the evaluation plan
that would be used to determine the effectiveness of the proposed
policy.

1. Most frequent stressors of the students are school related stressors, followed by
personal factors such as the family issues, personal economic problems and
inherent personality characteristics encompass the students' lives.

2. Some students succumb into stress because of their looks. It lowered their
selfconfidence and self- esteem because of unfair treatment of the world and some
are fall into insecurity which is the down cast.

3. Work overload of the students result in Hyper Stress that pushes students beyond
what they can handle. Little or simple things like school works trigger their emotional
response that lead to serious emotional and physical repercussion. Hypo Stress is
the opposite which is the results when the students bored by an unchallenged job
such as working the same task over and over again. Because of these, students
trapped as restlessness and lack of inspiration.

Conclusions:
1. The problems of the students are different due to their uniqueness, adaptation,
vulnerability, involvements and simple excellent techniques specifically their locus
of control.
2. Procrastination, thieve time, one attitude that is very common among a lot of
students (more on later) because of many circumstances diving headfirst into
crossing consequences ahead. Every student has a life outside the academic
curriculum and school environment. Thereby, it hides awful matters beyond those
smiles enable to pretend and to become an extraordinary person.
3. So many students shine beyond those threatening stresses under severe pressure
while others are stocked.
