- Understand that the method is not dogmatic, nor immovable, nor immutable.
- Understand that only the daily verification of what a theory predicts confirms its validity.
- Understand the importance that research with this method has for the discoveries and progress of our civilization.
- Understand the lack of material development in
civilizations which have not known how to research and develop
applications which permit scientific discovery.
- Understand that if it were not for physical-mathematical
deducations it would be impossible to discover the phenomena which
contradict so-called general common sense.
- Understand the importance of having a well-trained
brain to be prepared to enter the social and working environment with
