Exogenous factors: Impact on academic performance

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to determine the factors that negatively affect the performance of the students of the Military School for the achievement of their academic goals and objectives of the institute, despite the existence of a system of caution of academic progression aimed at avoiding the academic failures and voluntary defections of these. The paradigm from which the article was focused corresponds to a qualitative and quantitative study to complement the tools and techniques of information collection, the design is especially suitable for the study of educational contexts as the case of the Military School and is a descriptive study in which the theoretical contrast is carried out with an academic reality of the area under study. The conclusions obtained indicate what are the factors that affect the academic performance of the students of the Military School, the recommendations through proposals to address them and their respective implications.
