Factores socioeconómicos y las Tic´s asociados al rendimiento académico de estudiantes Ngâbes
Resumen
This research is based on the assumption that socioeconomic factors and ICTs are associated
with the academic performance of native students and raises the general objective of
evaluating socioeconomic factors and ICTs associated with the academic performance of the
Ngäbe student in times of pandemic by COVID-19 of the Faculty of Public Administration
at the Autonomous University of Chiriquí, 2020-2022.
The mixed methodology was used, with a descriptive and correlational scope for the
quantitative part and phenomenological design for the qualitative. The sample case type was
handled, constituted by the population census that attends the various careers offered by the
Faculty of Public Administration, so sampling was not used. The information was collected
through the semi-structured survey and interview and analyzed with the SPSS and Atlas Ti
statistical program.
While it is true that the correlational study rejects the research hypothesis that both
socioeconomic factors and access to them did not have a significant relationship with
academic performance, the considerations expressed by students in the qualitative part of the
study suggest that in some way these variables limit although they are not significantly
relevant with respect to their performance; in any case consider the problem that They said
it should involve efforts by the university to improve the academic performance of Ngäbes
students, especially those residing in rural or county areas.
