Relationships Among Student-body Composition, School Process, and Mathematics Achievement in Argentina’s High Schools

This is a study of the relationships between the student-body composition of the school, some characteristics of the scholastic process—culture and school climate—according to learners’ perceptions, and the mathematics achievement of students in the last year of high school in Argentina. The dat...

Logro escolar educación secundaria factores institucionales clima escolar cultura escolar. This is a study of the relationships between the student-body composition of the school, some characteristics of the scholastic process—culture and school climate—according to learners’ perceptions, and the mathematics achievement of students in the last year of high school in Argentina. The data used came from the 1998 National Census of High School Completion, carried out by the nation’s Ministry of Culture and Education. The file contains data for 135,000 students of 2,708 schools in 25 states. Multilevel linear modeling with three levels (student, school and state) was applied. A strong relationship was detected between mathematics achievement and the variables student-body composition and school process. When both variables acted together, the effect of other variables experienced a pronounced descent. Although reduced, the variables of the process influenced the student’s achievement. There was identified for future works a reference model which would evaluate other institutional learning factors. En este estudio se investigan las relaciones entre la composición estudiantil de la escuela, algunas características del proceso escolar –cultura y clima– según percepciones del alumno, y el rendimiento en matemáticas de los alumnos del último año de secundaria en Argentina. Se utilizan los datos del Censo Nacional de Finalización del Nivel Secundario de 1998, que fue realizado por el Ministerio de Cultura y Educación de la nación. El archivo es de 135 mil alumnos en 2,708 escuelas de 25 estados. Se aplica la técnica de análisis estadístico multinivel con tres niveles: alumnos, escuela y estado. Se detectó una estrecha relación entre el rendimiento en matemáticas y las variables composición y proceso escolar. Cuando ambas variables actúan conjuntamente, el efecto de otras variables experimenta un descenso pronunciado. Aunque reducido, las variables del proceso influyen en el logro del alumno. Se identificó un modelo de referencia para futuros trabajos que evalúen otros factores institucionales del aprendizaje.
