The terms `Process`, `Procedure`, and `Method` can all be said to mean "_how things are done_", but do have a generally accepted differences. It's sort of like an increasing specificity. **Process** - describes an _overall_ "how things are done", with the least amount of detail. - Representation - diagrams **Procedure** - procedures are closer to step-by-step level instructions. They would include things like screenshots. - Representation - screenshots, checklists **Method** - like a procedure, but bound to the domain of the activity - Representation - screenshots, checklists Processes can call out specific procedures, which may prescribe certain methods. Example from Google' Gemini: - The **process** is building the entire house. - A **procedure** might be the specific steps for installing a window. - A **method** could be your chosen technique for hammering nails (using a specific hammer or nail placement). **** # More ## Source - Google's Gemini ## Related - [[Standard Processes]] - [[Values, Principles, and Methods]] - [[Procedural Knowledge]]
