This project falls under the sub-measure “Innovation and Pedagogical Modernization in Higher Education – Program for the Promotion of Success and Reduction of Dropout Rates in Higher Education,” which aims to promote student success and reduce dropout rates in higher education. In the medium and long term, it seeks to enable students to secure dignified employment, thereby fostering economic growth.
The central objective of this sub-measure is to encourage the development of support mechanisms for the academic integration of new students and the promotion of their success, particularly through mentoring and guidance by faculty and peers, the adoption of innovative teaching and learning practices, the diversification of pedagogical methodologies and technological tools, the prediction of dropout situations, and the strengthening of self-learning and teamwork practices.
