Abstract

The research is for Laguna State Polytechnic University, on the 4th year BSIT students of the College of Computer Studies enrolled in the Methods of Research. The College of Computer Studies – Research Manual, aligned with the LSPU Research thrusts and priorities, implements the mandated four-fold functions, namely instruction, research, extension, and production. Some unexpected difficulties and problems led to the study, which aimed to analyze and provide information and interventions to address the students’ difficulties encountered in their research processes. The procedures of the study were categorized into main themes and sub-themes for students who encountered difficulties. Using data analysis on thematic exploration, the findings revealed that the respondents encountered personal problems relating to school expenses, a lack of interest, and a negative attitude toward the research. The results are on emotional problems encountered, such as excessive stress in doing academic tasks and low self-esteem or not believing in one’s capabilities. To address these difficulties based on the results, the author provides solutions and interventions that the College of Computer Studies should address: research capacity-building workshops, mentoring and support programs, regular feedback with evaluation, access to resources, incorporating ethical considerations, and gender equality initiatives.
