Abstract

A descriptive study of population and academic performance carried out by the statistics department of the University of Sciences and Humanities (UCH) concluded that the students of the Electronic Engineering program of the UCH, abandoned the program due to low academic performance in curriculum courses of studies. The study details, that of the total of entrants since 2008, 37% of students finished the program, of which, only 15% of students approved all the courses of the curriculum of studies, without disapproving any course; This indicator generates great concern regarding the achievement of skills and continuity of students in the program. In order to solve this problem, academic strategies were applied to strengthen intrinsic motivation, using the implementation of virtual classrooms, technical visits and seminars by experts. Achieving to date a favorable result in the academic performance and the reduction of students who leave the program.

工作进展:运用学术策略加强内在动机，减少利马北部大学放弃工程专业的学生人数

由科学与人文大学统计学系进行的一项关于人口与学习成绩的描述性研究得出结论，该大学电子工程专业的学生由于在课程课程中的学习成绩不佳而放弃了该专业。该研究详细说明，自2008年以来，在所有入学学生中，37%的学生完成了课程，其中只有15%的学生认可所有课程的学习，没有不赞成任何课程;这一指标对学生在课程中的技能成就和连续性产生了极大的关注。为了解决这一问题，我们运用了学术策略，通过虚拟教室的实施、技术访问和专家研讨会来增强内在动机。迄今为止，在学业成绩方面取得了良好的成绩，并减少了离开该计划的学生。
