School research in Catalonia : between tradition and innovation

The research-work (RW) is part of an official high school curriculum in Catalonia. The relevance of the proposal focuses on the fact that it complements the traditional tutoring project and is open to all educational levels with the same methodology. The main goal is that the students enter into the world of research and experience this as a bridge between school and university. It emphasises the methodology of teaching and learning in the development of research and combines two aspects of investigation: written work and oral presentation. It uses different free services platforms of Google and Google Classroom, a suite of free productivity tools for classroom collaboration. This method enables the educational community to approach to the world of research and allows them certain freedom to organise the development of the RW under the supervision of a tutor, and follow the schedule of presentations defined in the calendar. It allows students to create a trajectory of learning that begins at school and continues throughout life.Peer Reviewe
