Abstract

Este artículo estudia la evolución y los determinantes de la calidad de la educación en Colombia durante los años 2017 (antes) y 2021 (durante la pandemia), con el propósito de evaluar el impacto del covid-19 sobre el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes. Para ello, se empleó el método de descomposición propuesto por Firpo et al. (2007, 2011) que permite analizar los factores que determinan el diferencial en el rendimiento académico a través del cálculo de descomposiciones contrafactuales para toda la distribución del rendimiento académico; en particular se analizaron los cuantiles 10, 30, 50, 70 y 90. Se encontró que la pandemia afectó el rendimiento académico de todos los estudiantes en general, pero en especial, a los estudiantes de la parte baja de la distribución. Con ello se comprueba la hipótesis de que el desmejoramiento en las características socioeconómicas, familiares y personales de los estudiantes empeoró las desigualdades educativas existentes.
