dc.description.abstract | University dropout is currently one of the main challenges faced by
government bodies and state and regional universities. Both personal and
institutional reasons can be identified as root causes of university dropout.
On a personal level, students accumulate experiences of academic failure
that lead them to reflect on the possibility of continuing their studies, while
from an institutional point of view, failure can be attributed to educational
deficits, reputation, and quality parameters of the university institution itself.
Even though more and more universities have educational policies aimed
at reducing dropout rates, the dropout figures continue to rise, which
shows that this is a complex problem due to the number of variables
involved. The main objective of this study is to analyze the factors that
influence university dropout among Andalusian students. The methodology
is qualitative through a focus group with the participation of 12 students
who dropped out of their academic studies in education science degrees
at the University of Malaga (Spain). The study population corresponds to
students who formalized their enrollment in the first year of the degree in the
2021/22 academic year. The content analysis followed a deductive category
development model. The results reveal that the factors that explain the
educational abandonment of the students, who are the object of this research,
are identification with studies that did not meet their initial expectations, the
use of traditionalist methodologies, the development of work activity, and the
economic difficulties in covering the costs derived from university education.
The main conclusion include the importance of designing educational policies
in line with the reality and needs of the students, the use of innovative
methodologies that increase the degree of motivation of the students, as
well as studying dropouts from a holistic perspective, considering the multiple
variables that influence its origin | es |
