Group Formation: Parental Consent Form
02
September 30, 2021
On the 30th of September 2021, the research team was formed; the researchers consulted their parents and asked for their permission to group up with the said collaborators.

Group Formation: Messenger Group Chat
03
September 30, 2021
On the same day, one of the researchers created a group chat specifically in Messenger, as this is the major communicating software/app they utilize. The GC will be the main platform to be used to share and exchange ideas regarding the SIP.

Brainstorming: Bringing up the past Elementary SIPs
04
October 10, 2021
Considering that all of the researchers within the team were former public elementary school students, they decided to bring up their past SIP topics as inspiration or reference, and for them to be able to formulate a new one.

Top 10 Research Topics October 10, 2021
After harvesting several references from the past SIPs, the researchers jotted down the top 10 research topics that showcased potential and those that piqued their interest the most.

First Initial Research Topic
06
October 14, 2021
The researchers decided to choose "Using Yellow Tinted Candy Containers as an Effective Blue Light Filter Glasses." They picked this topic among the others for the reason that they find it useful and beneficial for online students and teachers especially now that they're being exposed to blue light-emitting screens for a long period of time.

Gathering data and information about the topic
07
October 15-20, 2021
Right after determining what topic to choose, the researchers have started to find and gather data from different resources that have relation to the topic. The researchers have been preparing for Ms. Taway's topic approval as well.

Topic Approval (Trial 1)
08
October 20-21, 2021
On October 20 (Wednesday), Ms. Taway instructed the researchers to send her a personal message containing their research topic, along with some collaboration documentation, on the day before the Research synchronous class. On the synchronous session itself, October 21 (Thursday), the topic went through a consultation. Ms. Taway gave her feedback and stated that there are some 'holes' within the study - a particular 'layer' for the eye glasses to make it effective.

Response for the information 'hole'
09
October 25, 2021
The researchers gathered data to find out what potential variables could be added to the glass lenses for them to be usable and effective. The proposed variable is an abrasive wax as the polishing compound. However, Ms. Taway stated that it would just be mere experimentation if they're going to use a market-merchandised product. The researchers then suggested making or creating an alternative wax - one made out of banana peels. The problem is that it would be another set of studies if they do so.

Topic Approval (Trial 2)
10
October 28, 2021
The first research topic was rejected since the researchers' proposed additional variable for the glasses is unrecommended for it to be added on the lenses. After the consultation, the researchers utilized one of the other research topics included in their top 10 list instead and decided to go with the "Utilization of recycled materials in Creating Floating Micro-HydroKinetic Generator." However, Ms. Taway commented that using the Marikina RIver's water flow wouldn't be that much effective because its flow rate is insufficient for it to generate electricity. Shortly, she suggested to remove the concept or involvement of water in creating a generator.

Topic Approval (Trial 3) November 04, 2021
The researchers applied some revisions and removed the involvement of water just like Ms. Taway stated. Instead of water flow, they're going to use the mechanical energy that pedaling a bike would generate instead. The final topic is now the "Utilization of Scrap Materials in Creating Low-Cost Bicycle Generator." The new topic was successfully approved and ready for feasibility reportage.

December 20, 2021
After the final topic was approved, the researchers proceeded on formulating their feasibility report. The series of sessions of feasibility reports started on November 25, 2021. However, not everybody had the chance and time to present theirs. On December 20, 2021, the researchers submitted the final presentation of their Feasibility Report in a form of a PDF file. They divided the tasks and content requirements equally so that all of them are mobilized and productively working on it.

Research Rationale December 17-20, 2021
On the same date, the researchers also submitted their research rationale. Before formulating such, Ms. Taway reminded her students of several guidelines on how to write a rationale in her synchronous class, such as utilizing personal observations instead of a global one, and the corresponding contents for each of the rationale's paragraph.

Along with the rationale, the researchers also submitted a narrative report encapsulating the process of how they formulated the rationale. In the said report, they included the tasks that have been assigned to each one of the members.

Feasibility Report: Defense Day
15
February 10, 2022
The researchers were then scheduled to present their feasibility report after the Christmas break. On February 10, 2022, the trio was the group to have its first turn on the synchronous class. The team went through series of practices since the feasibility report was made. (November 4, 2021 - February 9, 2022) The report discussed the study's materials and variables, accessibility of the materials, main processes and their practicability, economic relevance, the significance of the study, and title proposal. After the presentation, Ms. Taway gave her comments commending the significance of the study. She suggested applying some revisions to the proposed title and removing the term "Low-Cost," since there's no provided computation of expenses. After all, the presentation and feedbacks were comprehensive and went great.

SOP Formulation
16
February 10-11, 2022
The researchers proceeded on formulating their study's Statement of the Problem. Through Messenger Chat and Google Meet, each one of them presented an interrogative statement assessing some aspects of their topic.

SOP (Statement of the Problem) Submission
17
February 12, 2022
After gathering the statement of the problem from each of the members through Messenger and Meet, they have transferred those to a formal file, then submitted on February 12, 2022. They included problems in terms of the effectiveness of scrap materials, variety of pedaling speeds, and its alteration to different values such as voltage, resistance, and current.

SOP Collab Narrative February 12, 2022
Together with the SOP, the researchers also submitted a narrative report regarding the SOP making on the same date. They included the means of communication, the dissemination of tasks, and the process of formulating the study's Statement of the Problem.
