Propuesta para el fortalecimiento de los semilleros estudiantiles de carácter científico tecnológico. Estudio de caso: semilleros, departamento del Meta, Colombia.

The objective of this article is to reflect on a proposal to strengthen research seedbeds in the Scientific and Technological field of students in secondary and secondary education in the department of Meta, Colombia. This development occurs from the identified variables: seedbed management, the development of scientific-technological talent, the role of the teacher and the scientific-technological competencies of the students; The research, methodologically, addresses the positivist paradigm with a quantitative approach, through the collection of information with a survey technique applied to 36 teachers immersed in the investigative processes in the public educational institutions of the municipality of Meta, Colombia. Once the field work has been completed, the statistical parameters and their corresponding analysis of results have been applied, the conclusions show that, in the Seedbed Management variable, subcategories C and D (ICT Application), have higher percentages in the "regular" categories. "and "insufficient"; As the second variable analyzed, Development of Scientific and Technological Talent, subcategory C (application of ICT), has a higher percentage in the "regular" and "insufficient" categories, relevantly; Now, in the variable about Teacher Role, the results in this category ranged between "regular" and "poor", the relationship with the context, the little attention to the needs and the difficulty of the teacher for development are evaluated as weak. in students of Scientific and Technological Competencies. Finally, the variable Scientific-Technological Competencies, the general measurement for this category ranged between "regular" and "poor", it is noted that most of the projects are weakly articulated with the context. Consequently, the importance and relevance of the proposal raised on the strengthening of scientific-technological seedbeds to impact the population under study is validated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
