Estrategias pedagógicas para vincular la docencia y la investigación en entornos de educación superior

Pedagogical strategies to link teaching and research in higher education settings
Publicado
2025-08-29

La integración de la docencia y la investigación constituye un eje estratégico para la calidad de la educación superior en el siglo XXI. El objetivo de este estudio analizar a través de una revisión sistemática las estrategias pedagógicas para vincular la docencia y la investigación en entornos de educación superior en el periodo (2019-2025). Se analizaron 1,270 publicaciones en las bases de datos Scopus, Web of Science, SciELO, Redalyc y Google Scholar, seleccionando 28 estudios para la revisión. Los resultados revelan la persistencia de una brecha entre discurso teórico y práctica institucional, pero identifican estrategias efectivas como el Aprendizaje Basado en Investigación (ABI), las Experiencias de Investigación basadas en Cursos (CUREs), los Semilleros de Investigación y el Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos. Las conclusiones subrayan la necesidad de un enfoque sistémico que combine formación docente, rediseño curricular y políticas institucionales de apoyo para la vinculación efectiva de la docencia y la investigación.

The integration of teaching and research is a strategic pillar for the quality of higher education in the 21st century. The objective of this study is to analyze, through a systematic review, pedagogical strategies for linking teaching and research in higher education settings during the period (2019-2025). A total of 1,270 publications were analyzed in the databases Scopus, Web of Science, SciELO, Redalyc, and Google Scholar, selecting 28 studies for the review. The results reveal a persistent gap between theoretical discourse and institutional practice, but identify effective strategies such as Research-Based Learning (RBL), Course-Based Research Experiences (CUREs), Research Incubators, and Project-Based Learning. The conclusions underscore the need for a systemic approach that combines teacher training, curriculum redesign, and supportive institutional policies for the effective linking of teaching and research.
