Contribuições do Projeto IGUAL: Um estudo de caso

Abstract

The difference in quality between public and private schools in primary and secondary education is a well-known problem in Latin America. When they arrive at the University, students from public schools have a noticeably lower academic performance. Within this scope, the IGUAL Project is being developed, which aims, through the use of innovative learning solutions, to help graduates of public schools to improve their academic performance, reducing inequality in Latin American Universities. This paper aims to describe a case study to evaluate the contributions of the IGUAL Project within a Latin American University in order to identify if it was possible to reduce inequality within this educational environment.
