El balcó de l'estudiant

Aquesta secció de la revista acull articles elaborats per estudiants, majoritàriament de secundària i menors de 18 anys. Sovint són treballs presentats amb el suport, el patrocini o l’opinió del professorat que n’ha recomanat la publicació.

El criteri editorial és clar: poden ser textos menys acadèmics i més senzills que els habituals en una revista científica, però han de ser originals, fruit del treball personal de l’alumne, i han d’evitar qualsevol plagi, inclòs l’ús inadequat de continguts generats per la intel·ligència artificial. La finalitat és preservar l’autenticitat de la veu de l’estudiant i el valor formatiu de l’escriptura pròpia.

Ressenyes

Ressenyes de llibres o treballs de recerca d'alumnes de batxillerat. Comentari de publicacions i també de feines fetes per estudiants que valgui la pena destacar.
