1. PROPOSED TITLE:
Determinant Factors Affecting Senior High School students of Legaspi City Science High
School Purchasing Behavior towards E-Shopping
2. Why did your group choose your topic of interest?
Technology, society, and the economy can be said to be always changing. Today,
in our time, we are experiencing various issues involving environmental crises and
pandemic. The Covid-19 pandemic is a deadly and infectious disease that affects
everyone’s lives. With society constantly changing, people are affected, various products
and inventions were discovered. While we are amidst the pandemic, social media like
TikTok, online shopping, and such are now the trend around the millennial.
To avoid unexpected danger, online shopping is used as an alternative to physical
buying, which has the risk of being exposed to the virus. Electronic shopping has its own
advantages and disadvantages, and knowing this, many people in our generation use this
method. The researchers chose this study to give awareness to the factors that can affect
senior high school students’ behavior towards electronic shopping.
The researchers chose the study to determine the unknown factors that may
affect the students and to determine how we can improve ourselves to not get affected
by the factors. The researchers also chose the study to enhance and guide the students
while also helping their selves as a buyer and as a student. In conclusion, the
researchers chose this topic to further help and nourish the students.
3. What did you find most interesting about the topic? Explain its relevance to the
senior high school strand you are under.
On account of many physical retail shops around the world are either closed
owing to lockdown measures or have limited capacity to maintain social separation due
to the coronavirus epidemic, many customers are turning to the internet to make their
purchases. Using online shopping platforms has become the "new normal" and "more
common" among people as a prominent trend of purchasing things online at this time
of pandemic and focusing on this drastic change includes the costumers’ mental,
emotional, and behavioral responses piqued the researcher’s interest to conduct this
type study.
This type of study takes a naturalistic approach to its subject matter, promotes
an understanding of human behavior, instrumental for positive societal change, revives
the value of respecting people's individuality, and provides a way to interpret social
interactions are the factors that piques the researcher's interest to conduct this type of
study. As Accountancy Business and Management is a strand focuses on understanding
essential business ideas as well as related skills in fields such as finance, management,
corporate, and operations this study will provide and analyze the factors that influence
the E-shopping behavior of Senior High School Students in Legazpi City Science High
School.
4. What are the prospective research questions your group came up with? Briefly
explain the concept behind each question and how your team intends to carry out the
research.
-What influences shs students when it comes to purchasing online?
Millennials nowadays chose to do things in a modern way. Students engage in online
shopping rather than what we’re used to do before because convenience enables them
to scan shops at any time of the day and wherever place they may be. Also, this
question is to explore the factors that influences each student when it comes to
purchasing online as well as how do peers and environment influence impulsive buying
as a behavior that affects students’ online buying.
-How does being an irresponsible buyer affect your way of handling
responsibilities as a student?
We’ve come up with this research question to recognize consequences a senior high
school student can face while being irresponsible and impulsive when ordering online
products to handle duties as a student. How ordering online affects an individual.
5. What are the possible challenges/difficulties you might encounter for every title?
Consider the elements of time, money, and effort
- Lack of knowledge in research methodology and its limitations due to
various restrictions (effort)
The researchers have planned to focus on electronic shopping for it to stay relevant in
this time. The process and methodology of the project could be possible in so many
ways, but because of the strict restrictions and how limited access works, there would
be hindrances and doing so. In this idea, the researchers included the all-around-online
process of the whole scheme. Another concept is the inadequate knowledge and
practice of methodology manners done virtually - the conductors of the researchers
would have to find alternative ways for definite engagements that they would like to
pursue.
- Insufficient time and schedules varying [time]
When conducting particular researches, time would always be present. It is undeniably
the principal element, starting from the beginning of the process until it ends. One
distinct concern that the researchers would probably have a hard time considering is
time. Not all have flexible schedules and timetables when managing the possible
objectives that the researchers would handle. In conducting this type of comprehensive
research, focus and strategy would need to be evident.
