GABALAN COELLO, Jesús e VASQUEZ RIZO, Fredy-Eduardo. University Academic Achievement and Attendance: a Vision. Educación [online]. 2017, vol.41, n.2, pp.16-32. ISSN 2215-2644. http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/revedu.v41i2.18477.
The present study captures a series of reflections on the growing need in the educational context to identify aspects that interact as conditions of student achievement. Research in this area has determined the relevance of both endogenous and exogenous variable. In this second group of variable, conditions attached to the teaching-learning process itself usually appear, such as student to student relationships, student to teacher relationships, teaching methodologies, monitoring and evaluation schemes; etc.; some positions appear with increasing frequency, which one tries to attribute relevance to the variables of attendance or absence in classes. is test presents a review of approaches concerning the relationship between attendance and performance and takes into consideration a case study within a Colombian university, finding, in some cases, there are correlations between school attendance and final grades, conditional to certain subjects, the first through fourth semester. In attrition, the study involves another set of variables which are necessary to strengthen this position, such as class size, historical mortality rate of the subject, and the students’ perceptions regarding teacher evaluation, identifying its weighting with respect with general performance.
