CABRA TORRES, Fabiola  y  MARIN DIAZ, Dora Lilia. Training for Research and Innovation-Tensions and Questions on Initial Teacher Training in Colombia. Rev. colomb. educ. [online]. 2015, n.68, pp.149-171. ISSN 0120-3916.

This article presents some of the results obtained in the study entitled Research and Innovation Training in Teacher Education Programs in Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities, Natural Sciences, Education and Pedagogy, financed jointly by the Ministry of Education of Colombia and the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana. The objectives and strategies used by programs to train future teachers in research and innovation were analyzed for the four fields mentioned. Among other findings, the study showed that, in the last decades, both innovation and research have been part of the triad teacher professionalization-qualificationupdating, which are key directions of the public policies driving teachers' education. Those guidelines move the focus on teaching towards researching and educational innovation activities, intended to produce pedagogical knowledge and transformation in the classroom and school.

Palabras clave : Teacher Education Programs; innovation; research; educational policy; early teacher training.
