“…Finally, and because of the evolution of information and communication technologies in the framework of this type of programme, multiple software applications have been implemented in favour of student retention. This is reflected in the work of Oliveira et al (2018) who documented the use of the mobile application "MobilMonitor", in addition to the use of SAT in the Learning Management System to identify students in rural areas, in a Brazilian state, who require individualised pedagogical support to make an early intervention and achieve their permanence.…”

Dropout in Rural Higher Education: A Systematic Review

2021

Student dropout in higher education has been of great interest to the academic community, state and social actors over the last three decades, due to the various effects that this event has on the student, the family, higher education institutions, and the state itself. It is recognised that dropout at this level of education is extremely complex due to its multi-causality which is expressed in the existing relationship in its explanatory variables associated with the students, their socioeconomic and academic conditions, as well as the characteristics of the educational institutions. Thus, the aim of this article was to identify the individual, socioeconomic, academic, and institutional explanatory variables involved in student dropout in rural populations, based on a synthesis of the evidence available in the SCOPUS database. In order to achieve it, a mixed systematic review was defined under the PRISMA 2020 method. The analysis was approached in two stages; the first concerned the identification of the documents and the conformation of the sample, where 21 documents were distinguished for effectively dealing with dropout in rural higher education; and the second corresponded to the procedures defined for the development of the bibliometric analysis and synthesis of the information found in the documents. The results showed the distribution of studies by country, years of publication, the categorisation of the documents in SCOPUS, their classification by type and the methodologies used in the development of the studies analysed, as well as the variables that have been addressed in previous research. In this way, it is concluded that the results of the studies are not generalisable, either because of the size of the sample or because of the marked social asymmetries that exist in some countries, which can make the findings lack significance; on the other hand, the interest in research on variables associated with individual and academic determinants to explain rural student dropout is highlighted. In addition, some future research lines which can be addressed as a complement to the current view of the dropout event in rural higher education were identified.

“…Por otra parte, el diseño de herramientas para el seguimiento académico del estudiante como los Sistemas de Alertas Tempranas (SAT), son eficientes para Identificar a quienes tienen la intención de desertar (Oliveira et al, 2018). En cuanto a la comunicación, las falencias en esta tanto por parte del personal docente como administrativo son catalizadores de la decisión de abandonar su formación académica (Guzmán et al, 2021c;Guzmán & Canovas-Rodríguez, 2020).…”

La deserción limita los beneficios personales y sociales de la educación. En este sentido, los estados e instituciones educativas buscan prevenir y mitigar este fenómeno mediante el desarrollo de políticas públicas e institucionales, sin embargo, la complejidad del fenómeno es tal, que estas políticas son insuficientes y no se encuentran del todo articuladas con las realidades de los estudiantes, de ahí que persistan las elevadas tasas de deserción. Así, el objetivo del presente artículo fue establecer las causas de la deserción estudiantil en la educación superior rural a partir de un modelo conceptual basado en pensamiento sistémico a partir de las narrativas de un grupo de estudiantes colombianos. Para su cumplimiento se realizó un estudio cualitativo, en el que participaron 19 estudiantes. El análisis se realizó mediante codificación abierta para la identificación de variables que incidían en este fenómeno educativo, y se finalizó con un modelo basado en diagrama de bucles causales. Los resultados evidenciaron que las obligaciones laborales y familiares, la condición financiera del estudiante y el rol de los docentes son las variables más recurrentes en los participantes. Finalmente, a partir de las variables encontradas y el modelo, se proponen acciones que deben ser incorporadas en el marco de las políticas públicas e institucionales para prevenir y mitigar el fenómeno de la deserción.

“…O Brasil se posiciona como o maior produtor, consumidor e exportador desse produto (MENEZES, 2005). Entre os estados produtores de açaí, o estado do Pará é responsável por 95% da produção de açaí, sendo que o consumo em Belém pode variar de 100 a 180 mil litros/dia (HOMMA & FRAZÃO, 2002;MENDES, 2003;OLIVEIRA et al, 2002).…”
