Part VI. Statement of Purpose

1. From your perspective, what are the top three issues facing higher education today? Why? (no more than 300 words) / Desde su perspectiva, ¿cuáles son los tres principales problemas que enfrenta la educación superior hoy día? ¿Por qué? (máximo de 300 palabras)

En primer lugar, está la falta de cumplimiento de los estudiantes al asumir con responsabilidad su formación académica. La educación virtual ha sido un tanto complicada y más aún su adaptación a la misma tiene todavía una gran brecha de afianzamiento en la sociedad. Y otra es la falta de oportunidad de los estudiantes para poder acceder a una formación de carácter superior.

2. What are your own institution’s priorities and challenges with regard to leveraging instructional technology and distance education for the benefit of the entire organization? (no more than 300 words) / ¿Cuáles son las prioridades y los retos de su institución con respecto al aprovechamiento de la tecnología educativa y la educación a distancia en beneficio de toda la organización? (máximo de 300 palabras)

Desde el momento en que llegó la pandemia y nuestra educación formativa se volvió virtual nuestra universidad siempre nos ha brindado espacios de capacitación y formación que conlleven a un mejor aprovechamiento de las nuevas tecnologías. Ha brindado las estrategias necesarias para que sus docentes se actualicen y trabajen por un bien común que es la comunidad educativa.

3. If have the influence to instill change at your Institution, was one thing you could change, what would that be; and what is the unique aspect of your institution you would like to keep? (no more than 300 words) / Si pudiera influir para lograr algún cambio en su institución, ¿cuál sería? y ¿cuál es el aspecto único de su institución que le gustaría mantener? (máximo de 300 palabras)

Mantendría el ambiente único de compañerismo y de trabajo colaborativo que nos distingue como institución de educación superior. En cuanto a influir en algún cambio no lo veo así. Sino seguirnos posicionando como líderes en el sector educativo alcanzado diversas comunidades de estudiantes en las regiones más apartadas de nuestro país.
