Abstract
In Peru, there is a deficit of university students who manage to graduate by the thesis development modality; in the different faculties of public universities, the number of graduates for this modality is low. This research analyses the particular situation of graduates in the faculty of Systems Engineering and Computer Science of the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos from 2014, where less than 10% of the total graduates were identified, graduate by the modality of thesis support and that more than 90% graduate through various modalities that do not include making a thesis; the consequence of this is the small amount of thesis generated and therefore the low research index as well as the null publication of scientific articles by our graduates. Therefore, this research aims to increase the percentage of graduates by the thesis development modality through collaborative motivation using virtual platforms and support graduates in the publication of scientific articles. At the end of the research, more than 50% of graduates by the thesis development modality were increased; the publication of scientific articles generated by graduates through the thesis development modality based on the results of their research was also increased
Highlights
IntroductionWe consider our main problem is the low percentage of graduates by the thesis development modality
We consulted many graduates on the reason why, instead of preferring to graduate because of the thesis development modality, they opted for another modality, and all agreed that the reason was the great difficulties they encountered in the cumbersome process in that modality and that, on the contrary, by the other modalities everything was more manageable
At the end of 2014, we identified that graduates by the thesis development modality do not publish or generate scientific articles binding on the research developed in their thesis
Summary
We consider our main problem is the low percentage of graduates by the thesis development modality. The linked question would be: To what extent does collaborative motivation using virtual platforms contribute to the increase in graduates' percentage by the thesis development modality?. At the end of 2014, we identified that graduates by the thesis development modality do not publish or generate scientific articles binding on the research developed in their thesis. It is considered that the second problem is the lack of advice and motivation to graduates in the generation and publication of articles generated from their research project. The linked question would be: To what extent does collaborative motivation using virtual platforms contribute to thesis graduates publishing scientific articles?
