# Mini-project B3: On methodology

The goal for this project is less focused on the general rationale or description of methodological steps, and more on defining the rational basis for the chosen methods.

The main question that should be addressed by your third mini-project is:

3. **Why the How?**
*Why did you choose your specific methodology? What is the logic behind the method? How does the method relates to the question, issues, and actors involved in you research?*

For the third mini-project you should use at least one of the tools from this block (you can also use tools from previous blocks): *jupyter notebooks* and *pandas*. Try to use (if applicable) the topics of this and previous blocks.

Like with previous mini-projects there are no *right* answer or perfect questions. However, pay special attention to justifying your use of the method. **For this project, you will need to use literature from the course when you explain why you chose certain methods, tools, or devices.**

As before, the mini-project **will be presented during class. Groups presenting will be randomly chosen as usual.** Some groups will also be chosen as replyers to comment on the work of your peers. However, **all groups should populate their mini-projects.**

The report of this mini-proyect should be submitted through Blackboard: Mini-poyects Blog -> Mini-project B3: On methodology.
