Resumen
La presente investigación se realizó tomando como base los aspectos que habían mostrado ser relevantes en un estudio exploratorio realizado en 1984, respecto a la temática de la edad apropiada para el ingreso de los niños a la escuela. A diferencia de este estudio, se amplió la muestra tanto en número como en regiones geográficas.
Entre sus objetivos están:
Determinar si los niños de edad cercana al límite inferior por ciclo, son reportados por los maestros como los que presentan mayor cantidad de problemas de conducta y/ o académicos.
Determinar cuales son los procedimientos de corrección, utilizados por los maestros, para bajo rendimiento escolar y problemas de conducta en el aula.
Determinar algunas características familiares, económicas y académicas de los padres.
Conocer la opinión de los maestros sobre factores escolares-extraescolares que ellos consideran que afectan el rendimiento del niño en la escuela.
En los resultados obtenidos no se encontró evidencia de que el factor determinante en cuanto a fracaso escolar o problema de conducta, fuese el que el niño tuviera una edad menor al límite cronológico inferior por ciclo, por el contrario, si hay evidencia suficiente para concluir que los maestros involucrados en este estudio en su mayoría desconocen los procedimientos apropiados para el manejo de conducta en el aula. También se muestra que los maestros requieren mayor instrucción sobre otras formas de corrección en el área académica, a las usadas por ellos; especialmente en las áreas de matemática y español.
ABSTRACT: This investigation was carried out on the basis of the aspects that had been shown to be relevant in an exploratory study carried out in 1984, in relation to the issue of the appropriate age for children to enter school. Unlike this study, the sample expanded both in number and in geographic regions. Among its objectives are: To determine if teachers report that children near the lower limit per cycle have the greatest number of behavioral and / or academic problems. Determine what correction procedures teachers use for poor school performance and behavior problems in the classroom. Determine some family, economic and academic characteristics of the parents. Learn what teachers think about school extracurricular factors that they believe affect a child's performance in school. In the results obtained, no evidence was found determining factor in terms of school failure or behavior problem was that the child was younger than the lower chronological limit per cycle, on the contrary, if there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the Teachers involved in this study are largely unaware of the proper procedures for managing behavior in the classroom. It is also shown that teachers require more instruction in other forms of correction in the academic area than those used by them; especially in the areas of mathematics and Spanish.
