Fernando, I use the term scientific method to denote activity that furthers scientific understanding, and not every behavior does this so it's a useful, and important, distinction.

It should be: http://www.ijclp.net/issue_13.html. Great post but the link for “Reproducible Research Standard” was wrong. It should be: http://www.ijclp.net/issue_13.html.

There are several national organizations that have explicitly advocated against such characterization of scientific practice. They cite among the reasons for their objections, the incorrect perception its use gives many students that there is a single way to do science, and this is problematic. I have to continually remind my students that there is a methodology to scientific practice, but no single method as such. There are enough misconceptions out there about science, using 'method' just contributes to the problem. I have a question:
