Abstract

ABSTRACT

The degree in Education and Psychology conforms a complex corpus coming from basics of the First Cycle (in an Educational field), and a Second Cycle formed by a program guided to the specific professional development in this context of behaviour. The fact that the previous curricular specialization of these students could be so diverse has encouraged us to wonder for the predictable value that this could have on the academic results in the degree. From what field do the students come with better results?. Would it be possible some type of readjustment in programs and study plans which would allow us to optimize the effect of the formation on the specific matters of these studies? To reply to these questions, we analyze the qualifications obtained by the group of students of the First Course on Education and Psychology registered during the 1999/2000 academic course in the C.E.S. "Don Bosco", Madrid, with the objective of establishing possible problems between them and the formation of the First Cycle of the mentioned group. The results showed that no considerable differences exist among the different subgroups already compared. So, it cannot be concluded that there is a relationship between the academic result obtained in the subjects of the degree and the previous formation. Neither that this can be used, beforehand, to predict the success or failure in the future of our students.
