Abstract
Description
La investigación indaga acerca del contexto de los estudiantes de primer ingreso a la universidad y cómo afrontan los cursos introductorios de cada una de las carreras a las cuales ingresan. Las habilidades académicas ayudan a los estudiantes y el uso de las tecnologías de la información y comunicación (TIC) les permite desenvolverse de manera más ágil ante las vicisitudes que les presenta el mundo universitario que apenas están conociendo. El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar el desarrollo de habilidades académicas en los estudiantes de primer ingreso a carreras universitarias que requieren de destrezas matemáticas, y el proceso de adaptación y permanencia que los estudiantes y la universidad desarrollan para proponer aprendizajes significativos o exitosos. Metodología: se recolectó información en torno a los discursos de los estudiantes, ya que son la fuente principal, lo cual permitió escuchar la voz de aquellos que muchas veces callan en este proceso de acomodo y sobre lo que deben hacer para adaptarse a la vida universitaria. Por lo que al final de la investigación se plantea una propuesta que recoge estas inquietudes y sistematiza cómo debe presentarse el proceso de inducción de los estudiantes de primer ingreso a la universidad.
This research paper investigates the context of entering university students, their beliefs, motivations, social representations, and the needs with which they come to face in the introductory courses of each of the enrolled college majors. Academic skills help students, and the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) allows entering students to face issues presented by the barely known university world, in a more agile way. The objective of this research is to analyze the development of academic skills and the use of ICT in entering students into college majors that require mathematical skills, considering their social representations and beliefs that influence the attendance and the meaningful or successful learning processes. Methodology: information about the environment was collected gathered around the discourses of the students, who are the main source of information, allows to hear the voice of those who often remain silent in this academic life induction process; admission policies, and university adaptation have always come from the corresponding departments without listening to the voices of the protagonists. Therefore, at the end of the research, there is a proposal that addresses these concerns and systematizes the induction process for entering students to university.
