Resumen
El artículo muestra la percepción de los estudiantes indígenas del Campus Sarapiquí de la Universidad Nacional (UNA), sobre su inserción y desempeño en los cursos de aplicaciones computacionales de la carrera de Administración de Oficinas. El estudio realizado evidencia que la falta de conocimiento sobre el uso de la computadora, aunado a la resistencia de estas culturas a la tecnología, hacen que esta población ingrese rezagada a la universidad; por lo que se plantea cómolos antecedentes culturales y académicos de estos estudiantes, influyen en su rendimiento universitario. Además, se comparten estrategias didácticas propiciadas por las docentes de estos cursos, para facilitar el aprendizaje y la adaptación de esta población específica a la Universidad. Por último, se fundamenta la importancia de promover iniciativas que le faciliten al estudiante indígena una inserción exitosa y un rendimiento adecuado para garantizar su continuidad en la Universidad.
This article presents the perceptions of indigenous students in the Sarapiquí Campus of the Universidad Nacional (UNA) about their insertion and performance in computer applications courses in the program for Office Management studies. The study shows that the lack of knowledge about computer use, and resistance of these cultures to technology, causes these students to begin their university studies at a disadvantage. It is therefore important to understand how the cultural and academic backgrounds of these students influences their university performance. In addition, the didactic strategies promoted by teachers of these courses to facilitate the learning and adaptation process of this specific population to the University are discussed. Finally, the importance of promoting initiatives to facilitate successful insertion and adequate performance of indigenous students to guarantee their continuation at the University is justified.
