About the methodology
methodology was developed from the statement of the American thinker Neil Postman, in which all knowledge we create is the result of a few intellectual operations: observe, verify, classify, question, define, apply and generalize. After all, more important than knowing the content is understanding its production mechanisms and the way in which scientists have reached that result.
