  Abstract

  The objective of this study was to determine patterns of drug use in subjects held in a penitentiary in Lima. It is a descriptive cross-sectional study and the sample consisted of 330 male inmates, from whom the information of 279 inmates could be validated. The age among the inmates varied from 18 to over 65 years, being the age of highest prevalence (31.2%) between 31 to 40 years, the intern with younger age is 18 years and the oldest age was 75 years. A questionnaire of multiple options was used, adapted for the present investigation, which is divided into five areas: a) educational level, b) civil status, c) legal situation, d) crime and e) drug consumption. Likewise, the Drug Use Questionnaire (DAST-20) was used, whose reliability varies between 0.92 to 0.94. The Alcohol Disorders Identification Questionnaire (AUDIT) was also used, whose level of reliability was above 0.90. Among the most important conclusions, the most prevalent drugs among the inmates are alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, cocaine hydrochloride and basic cocaine paste, these being the ones with the highest consumption in the last 30 days. Age, level of education and crime significantly influence drug use inside the penitentiary.

  R. Mollo, C. Yraha

  Educa - UMCH (2018). N°11

  
  

  Abstract

  This research seeks to identify the relationship between the disposition to learn and democratic coexistence in students  of schools that implement "Comunidades de Aprendizaje".  It also investigates whether there are significant differences for these same variables in independent samples that consider demographic factors. It is a quantitative research, with  non-experimental, correlational descriptive design.   A total of 9 944 students answered this censal survey, participating all students, from third grade of primary to fifth grade of high school engaged in literary circles in any of the 43 schools of the project located in Lima, Callao, Piura, Cusco, Apurímac, Huancavelica and Puno, both in urban and rural areas. The applied instrument was specifically designed for this research and serves as a baseline for the schools that implement the project. The descriptive results show high and very high levels for the disposition to learn and democratic coexistence.  These two variables show considerable and highly significant (0.01) positive correlation (0.678) and when analyzing them in independent samples, statistically significant differences were found concluding that the highest results are found in female students, at the primary level and in rural areas.

• School failure in students of high school education of public schools of Peru, 2005-2010, and their associated factors

  M. Ariño

  Educa - UMCH (2018). N°11

  
  

  Abstract

  The present investigation seeks to determine the scholastic failure in secondary education in Peru between the years 2005-2010 and to identify the factors associated with this failure. This investigation is Non-experimental, multifactorial explanatory with a retrospective cross-sectional ex post facto design. It proposes a theoretical explanatory model of school failure from the ecological-systemic paradigm. The sample is 55% of high school students in Peru. To determine the influence of the intervening variables, statistical-mathematical instruments were used, performing a descriptive statistical analysis, a factorial analysis and a regression model β was applied. The conclusion reached is that, although school failure is the consequence of multiple factors, the most influential variables are the sociocultural and socio-economic environment in which the student lives. The results obtained have allowed an epidemiological study of school failure in Peru using a mathematical model of boxes, designed expressly for this research, in order to make predictions about school failure in Peru in the next five years.

• Secular education Why and for what?

  J. García, L. Ramírez

  Educa - UMCH (2018). N°12

  
  

  Abstract

  What is presented below is part of an investigation entitled “The potential of secular education in primary school” (2010, ISCEEM, Toluca, Mexico) based on the theory of the new cultural paradigm of Alain Touraine, as well as contributions of the main representatives of secularism such as Henri Peña, Jean Bauberot and Roberto Blancarte. For this article some reflections are presented regarding the theme of secularism in Mexican public education, its meaning, its interpretations, the cultural battles around it and, above all, its potentialities in citizen education in basic education. Its objective is to address the five most relevant aspects that secular training can provide and that, by far, exceed the benefits that any clericalism could grant in public education. It is concluded that said secularism promotes equality and the common good that are also the basis of democracy; In addition, promoting freedom of conscience enables agents to make decisions based on criticism and reflection, essential for democracy.

• Schools that have their own voice. Experiences of a self-evaluation process in 30 educational institutions

  R. Mollo

  Educa - UMCH (2018). N°12

  
  

  Abstract

  The purpose of the research was to obtain a better understanding of the processes of school self-evaluation. To this end, an attempt was made to understand the experiences and perceptions of the main actors involved in an institutional self-evaluation process in which the possibility of a participative construction of the school model was offered, as well as the indicators and evaluation instruments of the same. This self-assessment process lasted two years and involved 30 schools of different educational levels and had the presence of a facilitator and an economic incentive from the regional government. The information was gathered from a survey and documentary review. The results of the study showed that people are open to collaborate and be part of self-evaluation processes. Furthermore, the figure of external support for the development of capacities is necessary. It was also discovered that the economic incentive is an element that can contribute to the initial adoption, however there is a risk of generating dependency on this extrinsic motivation

  Abstract

  The main objective of the study was to demonstrate the influence of language games on the development of communication skills of children of five years of initial education. The approach adopted corresponded to the qualitative one; the type of research, descriptive correlational; and the design, not experimental. We worked with a sample of 60 children (as). The selection criteria was intentional because it was a small population. During the research process, emphasis was placed on the management of a set of recreational resources related to language management in order to develop the capacities with respect to the oral and written use of the same, starting from the distinction of the initial and final sounds of the words, added to the fun and entertaining exercise of the mouth muscle to facilitate speech fluency. From their results it is summarized that the systematic and organized application of linguistic games has a significant and strong relationship with the development of children's oral and written communication skills, as well as with psycho-social development, with training of personality and with the practice of basic social values.
