Data were collected during 2019 using the ROSE Project questionnaire and, therefore, they reflect the interests of students prior to the pandemic. We found a strong belief that science and technology will provide cures for diseases of greatest concern. The three items that aroused the most interest were: How to perform first aid and use basic medical equipment, Cancer: what we know and how to treat it, and How to control epidemics and diseases. We believe that the information presented here provides a framework to quantify the changes that the COVID-19 pandemic may generate. En este trabajo describimos el grado de interés de jóvenes de escuelas públicas del Municipio de Hurlingham (Buenos Aires) respecto de aspectos relacionados con las epidemias y la salud, así como su percepción sobre la ciencia, la tecnología y los científicos. Los datos se recabaron en 2019 mediante el cuestionario del Proyecto ROSE y reflejan los intereses previos al COVID-19. Entre los resultados se evidencia una fuerte creencia en que la ciencia y la tecnología proporcionarán la cura para las enfermedades más preocupantes. Los ítems que despertaron más interés fueron: Cómo realizar primeros auxilios y usar equipo médico básico; Cáncer: lo que sabemos y cómo tratarlo; y Cómo controlar las epidemias y enfermedades. Creemos que la información recabada ofrece un marco para cuantificar los cambios que la pandemia pueda generar. ark:/s23449225/r7ewizkmi Asociación de Docentes de Ciencias Biológicas de la Argentina 2021-07-01 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo evluado por pares application/pdf text/html https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/revistaadbia/article/view/30510 10.59524/2344-9225.v24.n2.30510 Journal of Biology Education; Vol. 24 No. 2 (2021): Revista de Educación en Biología; 66-79 Revista de Educación en Biología; Vol. 24 Núm. 2 (2021): Revista de Educación en Biología; 66-79 2344-9225 0329-5192 10.59524/2344.9225.v24.n2 spa https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/revistaadbia/article/view/30510/35106 https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/revistaadbia/article/view/30510/35107 Derechos de autor 2021 Paula Bergero, Juan Pedrosa, Diego Petrucci https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0
