Abstract
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education has transformed teaching-learning and research processes. This article analyzes the role of AI in formative research, taking classroom projects as a pedagogical strategy for the development of research competencies. A mixed study was carried out that combines a quantitative descriptive approach with 102 students at university programs, whose data were obtained through a structured survey, as well as a qualitative component through a panel of experts with tutors of classroom projects. The results show that 99% have participated in classroom projects and that 63% feel satisfied or very satisfied with this strategy. It is evident that AI is perceived as a support tool in stages such as bibliographic research, data analysis and academic writing. The pedagogical, ethical and methodological implications of the use of AI in formative research contexts are discussed. It is concluded that the integration of AI in classroom projects strengthens critical thinking, improves the quality of academic products and promotes authentic research practices.
