Abstract

The main objective of this article is to design a theoretical proposal to integrate educational research in teacher training. This proposal arises from the scarce contributions in this regard in the context of Ibero-America. The proposal contemplates two major complementary elements: the vision on educational research and the student's perspective. The first is broken down between research as theoretical knowledge and educational research as a learning tool. On the other hand, the student perspective is divided between a student body that learns research methodology in a theoretical way and a student body that has the possibility to participate in the research through a greater involvement with it. It is hoped that this proposal can be significant for the literature in the area and that it will allow the establishment of concrete actions leading to its materialization in the context of teacher training.
