I think it might have been Robert Grosseteste (1175-1253), Bishop of Lincoln. I'm researching him.. and it says he is "the real founder of the tradition of scientific thought in mediæval Oxford." And is best known as an original thinker for his work concerning what would today be called science or the scientific method. hope that helps
There are six steps to the scientific method. The steps are ask a question, do background research, construct a hypothesis, test your hypothesis by doing an experiment, analyze your data and draw a conclusion and communicate your results.

Scientific Method
Francis Bacon was one of the creator of the scientific method......along with Rene Descartes
Both Descartes and Bacon had their own step-by-step methods that were created before the scientific method. The idea of answering scientific or philosophical questions in an ordered way came from Bacon and Descartes and is the basis of the scientific method.
He is the "father of modern philosophy". Together, he and Francis developed the scientific method.
The goal of the scientific method developed by Bacon and Descartes was to establish a systematic approach to acquiring knowledge through observation, experimentation, and logical reasoning. They emphasized the importance of empirical evidence and rational thinking in understanding the natural world. Their methods laid the foundation for modern scientific inquiry.
Descartes's ideas, such as his emphasis on skepticism and rationalism, parallel modern science's commitment to evidence-based reasoning and inquiry. His focus on the importance of doubt and the use of logic to establish knowledge also aligns with the scientific method, which relies on critical thinking and empirical evidence. Additionally, Descartes's approach to understanding the natural world through systematic observation and measurement presages the empirical methodologies utilized in modern scientific research.
Both Francis Bacon and Rene Descartes believed in the importance of using systematic observation and experimentation to acquire knowledge in the scientific method. They emphasized the need for reasoning and evidence to support scientific theories and conclusions.
