Didactic modules are autonomous and structured learning units that logically organize theoretical content, practical activities, and evaluation processes. This research evaluated the influence of didactic modules on the learning of definite integrals among Systems Engineering students at the National University of the Altiplano. Faced with persistent difficulties in conceptual understanding and the predominance of mechanical teaching, a quantitative approach was applied with a pre-experimental design of pretest and posttest to a sample of 23 students through non-probabilistic convenience sampling, using a non-parametric Wilcoxon test. The results showed a significant improvement in academic performance, with an increase in the overall mean from 9.13 to 12.48. Initially, 78.3% of the students were at the "Beginning" level; after the intervention, this percentage decreased to 21.7%, shifti...

Educational institutions collect and manage information about their students in order to support decision-making aimed at improving academic performance and the overall achievement of their community. The objective of this research was to identify findings on academic performance considering sociocultural factors throughout secondary education. The study followed the KDD process (Knowledge Discovery in Databases) and applied machine learning algorithms for data mining. As a result, two main findings were identified: first, the family environment and the level of student responsibility directly influenced academic performance; second, five student profiles were detected based on these factors: (1) favorable family environment and high level of responsibility, associated with outstanding performance; (2) favorable environment and low responsibility, with limited performance; (3) unfavorabl...
