Abstract:
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the study modality changed from face-to-face to virtual, and the teaching-learning process changed drastically. Therefore, it was necessary to determine the effect of this pandemic on the academic performance of essential subjects that are part of the curriculum in most higher education careers. This research used the observational and analytical method on 101 students enrolled in the Mining career and a balanced factorial mathematical model and separation of means according to a significance value of 0.05 (p<0.05). It was possible to determine that the academic performance of the students of the Mining career of the Escuela Superior Politécnica de Chimborazo in the basic subjects is different from the virtual average at least in a partial or in the final exam. In this case, it was significantly different in the second and third midterm, with the virtual performance being higher than the classroom performance.
