Model Answer:
Presently the education system is experiencing some unusual changes and 
most of the times the students of different levels are to be the sufferers. 
Research methodology is one of the subjects that should be taught in college 
level and thus it should be discarded from the school education programmes. 
The education system in the Philippines has changed comparing the past days. 
Currently, the students are to carry heavier books than their own weight and 
sometimes they turn sick for the academic studies and pressures. It happens as 
the school authorities want to make them smarter and faster to keep pace 
with the advancing world. Of course, the aims of the school administrations 
are noble but by the same time, they forget that the kids not should be treated 
in this way. Adding more subjects and texts on their syllabus will not make 
them wise enough in this premature age to deal with the world. Attachment of 
critical subjects and courses often make the life of the students unbearable. 
Thus they turn reluctant to their studies and consequently their academic 
results are not up to the mark. In many schools in the Philippines, the 
authorities have included research on their academic syllabus and this is done 
with the students of secondary level. But I think this should not be on the list. 
Usually, the students of seventh to tenth grade are to undergo different sorts 
of research works in their academic studies and often the research comes with 
the scores of a full course. Moreover, the school authorities design the syllabus 
in such a way that there are no chances to skip the research. They school 
authority wants to make the students familiar with the contemporary trends of 
research as if they are the potential scientists. But they do not think how the 
research works have detrimental impacts on the student. Since research is a 
vast issue, it should be taught and practised at the university level. But the 
school authorities are a bit unwise as they do not have the complete idea 
about the research activities. Conducting a research is highly troublesome for a 
student of the seventh or eighth grade. 
Research methodologies are a set of complex rules and regulations to be 
followed during a research work. The students of the lower lever, like who are 
in their tenth grade, are unable to comprehend the entire facts. I have seen 
that majority of the students are unable to keep pace with their academic 
studies when they are assigned the research activities. They are to do a large 
number of preparatory works for their research. They are to select their topic, 
make necessary arrangements, prepare questionnaires, sort out the gathered

data, analyse the data, prepare lengthy reports and submit them for getting 
the marks or passing course. But the tasks are heavily time-consuming and the 
students are unable to perform all the tasks smoothly. As a result, they cannot 
concentrate on their regular studies. At the end of the year, their overall 
academic activities are not up to the mark and the grades fall to the largest 
extent. If they did not have to concern over the research, they would have 
done far better than the expected results. 
Secondary level for the students is the time for to know about everything but 
in a limited manner. They are not supposed to be specialists in this age. Rather 
there are scopes to be an expert in any specific subjects when they are in the 
university level or having their post graduations. So, the academic studies in 
school should be made student friendly. The research methodologies should 
be replaced with something interesting. The school administrations may 
replace the subject with some extracurricular activities like watching movies 
and appearing on quick tests over the movie. Besides, they also could
