Description
Summary:Education as an instrument of development and training of the human being, pursues the fundamental intention of preparing integral professionals who respond to the demands of society. In this sense, the Universidad de la Costa in Colombia, has designed the Academic Accompaniment Plan with the purpose of improving the competencies of the students, which is why the objective of this article is to analyze the incidence of the Academic Accompaniment Plan on the critical reading and mathematics competencies of the students of the first semester at said university. The methodological approach was empirical-analytical, quantitative, with a quasi-experimental pretest and posttest design. The sample consisted of 171 ndergraduate students. The results show the existence of significant differences at 95% (Wilcoxon W, p: .000) between (pretest and posttest), with an increase in both critical reading and mathematics skills, obtaining a quantitative improvement of 78% in the performance level in mathematics and 90.7% in critical reading. In conclusion, these findings confirm the effectiveness of the Academic Accompaniment Plan for improving reading and math skills, allowing them to train as comprehensive and competitive professionals.
