Abstract

ROCHIN BERUMEN, Fabiola Lydie. School drop-off in top education: literature review. RIDE. Rev. Iberoam. Investig. Desarro. Educ [online]. 2021, vol.11, n.22, e01.  Epub May 21, 2021. ISSN 2007-7467.  https://doi.org/10.23913/ride.v11i22.821.

The objective of this work was to conduct a literature review to learn about some definitions, as well as the causes of dropout at the university level. The methodological approach used was qualitative, for which bibliographic, historical-logical, analytical, synthetic and descriptive methods were taken into account; the literary review process allowed to determine and extract the most outstanding information contained in different sources, such as that offered on the Scielo, Redalyc, Dialnet portals, as well as in the Google Scholar and Mendely search engines. Some of the causes identified in this document around dropout have to do with latent failures in processing plans and programs, deficiencies in teacher readiness and updating, family difficulties facing the student, or lack of a life goal or project on their part. In conclusion, it can be said that higher education institutions must become more actively involved in this phenomenon, which can be achieved by updating their academic programs and including teaching strategies, counseling and follow-up to students through tutoring. In addition, work must be done on the emotional aspect of students, for which empathy must be established to facilitate adaptation, especially in the first year of university.

Keywords : causes; dropout; students; higher level.
