Cómo mejorar la educación: Ideas latinoamericanas y resultados asiáticos

Este libro, que tiene origen en dicho seminario, compara el rendimiento educativo sobresaliente de sistemas convencionales de Asia con el de America, donde persiste la mala calidad, el analfabetismo y los altos indices de desercion escolar y repeticion, a pesar de que el gasto en educacion es mucho mayor. Sin embargo, los logros envidiables de Asia han ofrecido escasos incentivos para reformar los sistemas educativos que se basan principalmente en el aprendizaje de memoria y no en el desarrollo del pensamiento creativo y critico. En cambio, las deficiencias de America Latina han suscitado una amplia gama de innovaciones educativas, que se presentan en este libro.

En la actualidad la mayoria de paises de A.L. someten a los estudiantes a pruebas desde los primeros anos de la escolaridad hasta el final de los estudios universitarios. Al nivel de la escuela se esta pasando del “clasificar” a los alumnos (entre los que podian avanzar al siguiente nivel y los que debian repetir), a lograr que cada alumno aprenda al menos el minimo necesario para avanzar (si tiene la capacidad necesaria, aunque sus conocimientos previos sean limitados). Existiria un creciente interes por evaluar no solamente los logros en “instruccion” (en contenidos y habilidades), sino que tambien la “formacion” (educacion propiamente tal), es decir, la capacidad de tomar decisiones responsables conforme a criterios aceptados. Estos cambios han repercutido en la operacion de los sistemas y en los objetivos que privilegian...

An intensive approach for course repeating students at a Chilean University
Higher Education, 2020

Concerned about first year failures among first-generation students, a university in Chile devised a between-semesters course intended to allow failed students to remain with their entering class. The course had three major elements: compression of a semester’s course work into 2 weeks; use of incentives to motivate students to prepare for classes; and “flipped class” participation. In 2014, this intensive course was offered in the break between the first and second semesters. Some 310 students in Health Sciences who had failed at least one of three required courses were invited to enroll; 140 signed up. At the end of the course, more than 90% of the students taking the intensive course passed the regular final examination they had previously failed and continued with their entering class. With no additional intervention, over the next seven semesters, students who had taken the intensive course performed as well in their courses as those who had not and were less likely to drop out. In 2017, more than 75% were still with their class, compared with 53% of those who had not taken the course.

Education, which enriches his spirit with ideas and adorns his heart with virtues, is an effective means of promoting his progress. … If education is necessary and if it must be perfected through reforms suggested by observation of the human heart, then it becomes a question as important as the question of whether it is necessary to promote the happiness of mankind, and to enable man to attain as fully as possible all the aims intended by his Maker at the time of his creation.

This attitude is spreading among the countries in the region [of Latin America]. Education and the production of knowledge make a decisive contribution to the diffusion of ethical values and behavior, the generation of abilities and skills indispensable for international competitiveness (more and more based in technical progress).

We call these sets of structures and practices “models” to indicate that they are based on general principles and can be adjusted according to particular circumstances. The models prescribe the sequence of actions to be taken to maximize learning. The principles are derived from the discussion of the learning process in Chapter 1.
