Types of Contributions

Types of Contributions We Accept

At Brotes Científicos, we accept different types of school-based work, adapted to the language and experiences of children and young people.

School Research Report (Scientific Paper)

Presents a research question, a hypothesis, the research process, the results, and a conclusion. This format is used when conducting an investigation based on the scientific method.

Example: A group of students measures the water quality of a stream near their school and analyzes the results by comparing them with environmental standards.

 

School Review Article

Summarizes and organizes what you have learned while researching a specific topic (for example, clean energy, wetlands, or climate change). Its purpose is to show what is already known about the topic and what remains to be explored.

Example: A student reviews existing knowledge about the impact of wetlands in their region using news articles, books, interviews, and accessible scientific publications.

School Essay

A written piece in which you present a personal opinion or reflection based on information and evidence. It may combine perspectives from science, art, history, or citizenship studies. This format is recommended for secondary school students.

Example: A student reflects on the risks of artificial intelligence in education, combining personal views, news reports, and school experiences.

 

School Review

A recommendation or critical analysis of a book, film, lecture, exhibition, or learning experience that inspired you to learn something new. It should include your own ideas and explain why the work or experience may be relevant to others.

Example: A team reviews a visit to a science museum, explaining what they learned and how it connects to a topic they are investigating in class.

If your school needs support in developing these forms of academic writing, we offer in-person and virtual workshops for students and teachers. Contact us and we will be happy to arrange a visit.
