Resumen

Our daily life is constantly changing, being part of this reality, the changes generated because of the Pandemic, which gave rise to profound modifications in the training models, the isolation produced a radical change and imposed the challenge of adapting the teaching to a new learning context. The present study is based on describing the complexity of research teaching in times of pandemic. A descriptive research was carried out during the months of May to October 2021, to know the beliefs and attitudes of university professors in Latin America, from different areas of knowledge, about the promotion and development of scientific research in face-to-face mode and/or virtual. The survey (questionnaire) was used as a data collection technique, which was validated by a group of experts, having established a Cronbach's alpha of 0.89, having 89% consistency in its items and with the participation of 135 teachers. The population under study is made up of 54.1% women and 49.1% men, with different years of experience dedicated to research from less than 4 years to more than 13 years. More than 70% agree or totally agree that research can be approached from virtuality, likewise it is important to manage the tools for a good development of research teaching, without neglecting the need that some still express about attendance to advance the investigation.
