La formación en investigación. Memorias de la experiencia investigativa.

Abstract

DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17227/01234870.38folios167.184This paper gathers some experiences taken from academic and training processes developed in a Social Construction of Space, an emphasis of the Master of Social Studies at National Pedagogical University in Bogota, Colombia, during the first and second cohorts (2008-2011). Reflecting on the results of research practices in this master program has left, as major contribution, a number of recommendations for future research training experiences with graduate students. Some relevant questions associated are: How could we select a topic or problem of inquiry? How could we ask and set goals to meet our research aims? How relevant is a methodological map in our process of data collection and analyzes? And perhaps the most challenging and annoying issue at the peak of any process: Planning conclusions from any impact given by contributions to several fields of social knowledge.
