The comprehensive training of education professionals increasingly demands the development of scientific competence from the early years of their studies, through the integrated implementation of substantive processes aimed at transforming educational reality. In this regard, the present work addresses the challenges related to the initiation of research activities among education students, particularly those enrolled in the Bachelor’s Degree in Speech and Language Education. Its objective is to develop guidelines for directing research work. The study provides a set of actions that organize key stages in which teachers’ pedagogical practice contributes to the formation of research competencies among students from the first year onward, through academic tutoring and the integration of research across subjects. These actions respond to the identification of deficiencies found in students’ research projects. The methodological framework included analytical–synthetic and inductive–deductive methods, as well as observation, interviews, and document review.
