description | In this study the determinants of academic performance is analyzed by comparing the results of the mathematical knowledge test Saber 11 of eleventh grade students of the regions with higher and lower levels of socioeconomic development in Colombia. The main objective of this research is to determine the factors influencing academic performance of secondary education, comparing regions under development and economic growth regions more favorable socioeconomic contexts. The methodology was developed through the application of a combined model cutaway which allows the individual to analyze combinations of units of study temporal, cross-sectional units for the study period 2008-2013. The results show that there are significant differences between the determinants of academic performance in regions with higher and lower levels of socioeconomic development. The personal characteristics of students, such as age and ethnicity, as well as school characteristics have a greater impact on students of regions of lower development; meanwhile, other determinants related to family and household characteristics such as parental education, technological accessibility and household incomes, have a greater impact on the academic performance of students in regions with higher levels of socioeconomic development. |

En este trabajo se analizan los determinantes del rendimiento académico de la educación media, comparando los resultados en el área de matemáticas de la prueba saber 11° de los estudiantes de grado once de las regiones con mayor y menor nivel de desarrollo socioeconómico de Colombia. La metodología utilizada se desarrolló a través de la aplicación de un Modelo de Combinación de Corte Transversal para el periodo de estudio de 2008 a 2013. Los resultados muestran que existen importantes diferencias entre los determinantes del rendimiento académico en regiones con mayor y menor nivel de desarrollo socioeconómico, las características personas de los estudiantes, tales como la edad y la etnia, así como las características de las escuela, tienen mayor impacto sobre los estudiantes de las regiones con menor nivel de desarrollo; mientras que las características familiares y del hogar, tales como educación de los padres, disponer de computador en casa y los ingresos familiares, presentan un mayor impacto sobre el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes de regiones con mayor nivel de desarrollo socioeconómico.
