Abstract

In Ecuador, the percentage of students with incomplete basic education is significant; therefore, it causes social, cultural, and economic problems. The national government, in line with international organizations and educational programs aimed at adults with unfinished schooling, have created different educational programs that began as individual projects and, over time, have evolved to the implementation of the intensive educational offer or also known as Education for Youth and Adults. The purpose of the educational program is that students over 15 years of age and with an educational lag of two years can complete their Higher Basic or Baccalaureate studies. According to reports from the Ministry of Education of Ecuador, it has been determined that students abandon their studies due to various circumstances linked or not to the institution. The research work focuses on determining the good educational practices that have been implemented in public educational institutions for admission, permanence and completion of studies in the intensive educational offer for Youth and Adults. The research is qualitative with an action-research approach, information was collected through interviews with experts, teachers and students of the educational public institutions in the city of Cuenca. Lastly, the answers to the interviews were analyzed from the different actors of the modality to propose concrete actions to promote intensive education.
