El absentismo durante la emergencia sanitaria y social Covid Sar-19 en estudiantes de educación media escolar y la incidencia del capital cultural y económico.

Abstract

The results of an investigation on the different factors and typologies of school absenteeism that occurred during the social and health emergency Covid Sar-19, carried out in an official school in the city of Bogota, are presented. The objective of this study was to identify the typologies of absenteeism presented during the social and sanitary emergency Covid Sar-19 in a District educational institution of the city of Bogota in middle school students. The methodological design is qualitative, framed in an interpretative paradigm. A structured interview was designed and applied to directors of the institution to collect a diagnosis of the actions implemented during the Learn at Home strategy. The opinions collected allowed the creation of an instrument to assess absenteeism associated with cultural and economic capital, which was validated by three expert peers. This instrument was applied to 198 students from both days of high school. It is concluded that after a documentary and systematic search of the typologies of absenteeism, it is evident that the importance of absenteeism has not yet been sufficiently disseminated. And it is significant to involve it in the institutional practices and in the educational entities, allowing to attack this problem. This research made it possible to establish that the social context in which the educational community is located, and the lack of follow-up have a marked influence on the cases in which absenteeism occurs
