what is methodology?
 It is the science that teaches us to direct a certain process efficiently and effectively to
achieve the desired results and aims to give us the strategy to follow in the process.
 Characteristic of cientific research.

 It is the formal study of the procedures used in the acquisition or

presentation of scientific knowledge.

 It is the set of research procedures applicable in some science.

 It is the set of rules that must be followed for the study of a scientific
discipline.
 DEFINICION.
INVESTIGATION METHODOLOGY

The research methodology is an ordered procedure that is

followed to establish the meaning of the facts and
phenomena towards which the scientific interest is directed
to find, demonstrate, refute and contribute to knowledge.

It is considered as the discipline that develops, systematizes

and evaluates the set of techniques used to find the truth of
science or what science has available.
 Definition.
Scientific Research is aimed at deepening the knowledge of a process
whether theoretical, practical or theoretical-practical, part of scientific
knowledge and leads it to the solution of problems of society that in one
way or another have not been investigated or their investigation it has
been led in another direction.
The scientific method is the proposed procedure that is
followed in the investigation to discover the forms of
existence of the objective processes, to generalize and
deepen the knowledge thus acquired, to get to
demonstrate them with rational rigor and to verify them
in the experiment and with the techniques of your
application.

Faces of the scientific method

1. OBSERVATION: It is a process that allows us to obtain
information about objects, facts or phenomenons.

2. THE HYPOTHESIS: It is an explanation that answers a

question, then it must be checked to see if it is correct or not
3. THE EXPERIMENTATION OR SEARCH FOR INFORMATION: It will serve to verify or refute
a hypothesis through measurement or comparison.

4. THE ORGANIZATION OF INFORMATION: It is the result of new

observations, measurements or inquiries through an experiment
or search for information in books, magazines, interviews,
etc.Now, these data obtained during the research activity, we will
have to organize them in graphic tables, diagrams, diagrams,
photos, etc.

5. THE CONCLUSIONS OR COMMUNICATION OF THE RESULTS

OBTAINED: If we verify that the hypothesis is true, our conclusion
will be VALID; in case the investigated facts do not coincide with
the hypothesis.
