Resumen
MONROY-VARELA, Sonia Esperanza et al. Impact of the COVID 19 pandemic on the student's academic performance at the School of Engineering - Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Bogotá Campus. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2022, vol.89, n.spe222, pp.38-47. Epub 01-Sep-2022. ISSN 0012-7353. https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v89n222.101308.
This paper analyzes the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the student's academic performance in the School of Engineering at Universidad Nacional de Colombia - Bogota Campus. The impact is assessed from a quantitative approach based on (i) student's grades, (ii) student's progress in their curriculum and (iii) dropped courses. In addition, results from a faculty survey (qualitative approach) are presented to expand some explanatory perspectives on the main academic changes during the pandemic. Results show a significant increase in the average numerical grade as well as in the probability of a course being dropped during the pandemic conditions. Furthermore, the student's average curriculum progress per semester grew approximately 18%. A differentiated academic impact, depending on sex and family income was observed which may be included in future post-pandemic programs. The survey reflects a new faculty's perspective on evaluation tools and methodologies.
