Clima social escolar: el caso de cuatro unidades educativas fiscales de la ciudad de Cuenca, período 2018 – 2019

Abstract

The analysis of the school social climate from Social Work guarantees a general view, considering that the social climate are the environmental conditions in which adolescents operate within the educational units, which must be studied and diagnosed from a profession that ensures the integrality in their intervention by working with all the actors of the educational system in the resolution of conflicts as in the prevention of them. This study analyses the perception of students on the school social climate through a quantitative approach with a descriptive study, for which the R. H. Moos and E. J. Trickett test was applied, Ecuadorian adaptation (2011), considering adolescents of the Unified General Baccalaureate of four educational units of the city of Cuenca, these institutions are: "3 November", "Octavio Cordero Palacios", "San Francisco", and "Alberto Andrade ArizagaBrumel", which resulted in a total of 500 students in a range of 15 to 20 years. The results obtained in this research indicate that the student perceives the school social climate that surrounds them as nutritious, considering the relationships between partners and their teachers as relevant factors, however, innovation in teaching methodologies remains fragile, the impact of Social Work and the school social climate are closely linked, however, within the education system there is a devaluation by the profession, just as it can be shown that the education system lacks institutional policies that promote a nutritious school social climate.
