Acompañamiento docente: Pilares para la formación de competencias investigativas en la educación universitaria

Teacher accompaniment in the formation of research competences in university students is essential to foster not only meaningful learning but also the ability of students to face the challenges of a constantly evolving academic and professional environment, accentuating their influence in the formation of researchers capable of contributing to social and scientific progress. It is proposed that teachers act as mentors, promoting autonomy, critical thinking and authentic learning experiences. This accompaniment goes beyond the mere transmission of information, is adapted to individual needs and promotes self-evaluation and intrinsic motivation of learners. In addition, collaborative learning and reflection on educational practice are highlighted as fundamental components. Finally, it is concluded that this educational framework is indispensable for training competent researchers, equipped to generate knowledge and to face social and scientific challenges
