Resumen
En la actualidad, existe una gran necesidad de mejorar el nivel de cualificación en el ámbito científico-tecnológico. En este sentido, se desarrolló un programa de educación STEM para estimular el desarrollo científico-tecnológico en la educación obligatoria. Los objetivos de este estudio se dividieron en dos: (1) comprobar el impacto del programa para mejorar los resultados educativos del alumnado de educación primaria en riesgo de exclusión social, y (2) explorar los efectos del programa para incrementar el nivel de estrategias de aprendizaje autorregulado del alumnado universitario. Para el primer objetivo, la muestra estuvo compuesta por 50 estudiantes de primaria y, para el segundo objetivo, por 26 estudiantes del Grado en Educación Primaria. La intervención consistió en 20 sesiones de tutoría en las que el alumnado universitario realizaba actividades de refuerzo con el alumnado de educación primaria. Respecto a los resultados alcanzados con el alumnado de educación primaria, se encontraron diferencias a favor del grupo experimental en rendimiento escolar y actitudes hacia la ciencia. Sin embargo, los resultados con el alumnado universitario no fueron los esperados puesto que no se identificaron diferencias significativas. En general, los efectos del programa recomiendan continuar investigando para mejorar el programa y conseguir el impacto deseado.
