Proposal of a tool to prevent dropouts at a higher level

Abstract

Dropout and low academic performance indices are latent problems in all institutions and schools at a higher level because more than half of the students who enroll at the University truncate their studies for various reasons, which in most of the time, are not academic. Moreover, the permanence and sustainability of a program of studies depend on the indicators of retention of the student population and the good performance of students Currently, even with easy access to universities in Mexico, students have many problems during the first academic periods , ranging from personal problems to institutional factors. Analyzing the problems of desertion , this paper the authors propose the use of software tools for analysis of personality of students in order to provide a useful tool to help the teacher -tutor to prevent dropouts in universities.
