This paper studies the effect of transfers from the General Participations System (SGP) on Colombian municipal development indicators during 2003-2017. A Municipal Development Index is proposed, considering indicators of educational achievement, health coverage, and crime rates. This index is studied in the municipal context using spatial autocorrelation techniques. A panel-type econometric model was estimated to evaluate the effect of transfers on the index. The results suggest that increases in education, health, culture, and recreation transfers generate positive, differential effects on the index. Transfers to the health sector have the most significant impact on the index. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper studies the externalities generated by the implementation of the instrumental policy of school breakfasts in Santiago de Cali. It starts by a historical analysis of the educational sector in Colombia, pointing out its pros and cons, which are given by the lack of coordination of the resources allocated and the policies. Also, a reflection about the meaning of public policies’ coordination and institutional change, which are integrated by the transferences of policies implemented through legal instruments, is proposed through the examination of public policy and public management. In this regard, the State has played a relevant role regarding the obligations in the educative sector: disponibility, access, quality, and permanence. Finally, the paper reveals the results of such instrumental policy in the educative sector and the whole city, showing evidence regarding the creation of public value. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the results of an empirical study whose main purpose is to determine the scores of technical efficiency (ET), pure technical efficiency (EPT) and scale efficiency (EE) in the district educational institutions (IED) of Santa Marta through the data envelopment analysis, and, at the same time, to establish protocols of improved for inefficients institutions. Using CCR-O (Charnes, Cooper y Rhodes) and BCC-O (Banker, Charnes y Cooper) models, the study evaluates the relative efficiency of 44 public institutions, which are analyzed in two categories: Group 1 (IE with less than or equal to 2000 students) and Group 2 (IE with more than 2000 students). In general terms, the empirical findings reveal that 20% of the evaluated institutions are CCR-O efficients and 43% are BBC-O efficients. On the other hand, 80% of inefficient educational institutions have operational scale (EE) issues and 57% also have administrative difficulties (EPT). The results also show that the worst extent of performance is IE John F. Kennedy (ET=0.304), (EPT=0.886) and (EE=0.343). Moreover, the IE Normal Superior para Señoritas (efficient IE), which is evaluator of 17 inefficients institutions, and San Francisco Javier College, which evaluates 15 inefficients institutions, are configured as the institutions that present the best practices and in role models. Finally, IED Nueva Colombia, IED Normal Superior San Pedro Alejandrino and IED Liceo del Sur Víctor de Lima are efficients institutions, however, they are not evaluators of none inefficient institution.

The Colombian Government has adopted a policy to improve communication skills in English at all education levels and especially in higher education, but little has been written about the achievements of the policy. This paper examines changes in the distribution of students' English proficiency level between the start and completion of their higher education programs. The results suggest an improvement in the distribution after graduating from higher education, characterized by a greater impact at higher scoring levels and an increased polarization.

This paper develops elements of reflection on the constituent components of the Franciscan identity, from the place where educational speeches are exercised, as a proposal for the training of trainers from the appropriation of values and Franciscan principles as a proposal of life, in the midst of a world immersed in a profound crisis of sense.

This research aims to clarify the current situation of the Deaf community in Bogotá in regard to the permanence and access to higher education. The study was carried out based on the analysis of the current national and international legal framework that relates to people with disabilities, and specifically to the Deaf community. With a deep analysis of the existing legal framework, this paper will attempt to determine whether or not this framework is sufficient in fully guaranteeing the right to education of Deaf people, taking into account the variables of permanence and access to education, and the discussion on whether the Deaf community may or may not be considered a linguistic minority. Furthermore, this investigation will attempt to determine the flaws in case law, legislation and public policies that have thus far been implemented, while also highlighting policy recommendations that can be adopted from a constitutional standpoint on the fundamental rights to equality and education for people with disabilities, all under the social model that defines this concept.

The research context that this article seeks to show the different models of college, from the evolution and development of universities and their management in Latin America, particularly in Chile, and how they affect the development of societies, both past and contemporary, highlighting some similar and different characteristics that they have. It should be noted that the Chilean model of education has been considered to have a great impact on some countries in Latin America, especially in Colombia. Moreover, the general objective of this research was the reflection on the reforms of higher education in Latin America and the impact these reforms have had in recent years in Chile, which seem to have created a high dissatisfaction in the social context, due to the excessive commercialization of educational services. For the development of this paper an extensive review of the literature, which accounts for the phenomenon to be investigated is made and semi-structured interviews were carried out to experts in the field, which helped to understand what authors explain in the literature concerning models and educational reforms in Latin America and the current situation of education in Chile, thereby achieving a clear vision of the reality of the problem.

Virtual education has taken hold within the Latin American educational system as a methodology that provides vocational training to people whom, for various reasons, cannot access classroom education. This paper aims to review the literature on the current state of virtual education in Colombia and the factors associated with dropout in Virtual Learning. As findings during the literature search, we encountered that during the period between 2000 and 2012 in Colombia 38,136 students were enrolled in this modality, demonstrating the immense acceptance of these programs and the impact thereof. However, despite the number of enrolled, dropout rates are high. According to the System for Dropout Prevention in Higher Education, in 2013 there were a total of 48,850 students who dropped out of distance education programs, which represents 38.2% attrition and therefore a retention index of 61.8%. These figures suggest the need for studies to determine the factors that lead students to make the decision to desert. In this regard, the Colombian context studies of this phenomenon are in very early stages and most have adopted theoretical models grounded in distance-traditional education. However, some factors that may be associated with dropout in this modality are related to technical aspects and socio-cultural characteristics of students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
