É intrínseca a relação entre as universidades e a sociedade, em que uma influência a outra, e ambas são beneficiadas dessa relação. Entretanto, alguns autores tem refletido sobre se essa relação é equilibrada e se a resultante contribui para um ambiente socialmente democrático. Tendo por objetivo contrastar indicadores da educação superior com as reflexões de alguns autores, sob o enfoque do setor público e privado, este artigo levantou pesquisas empíricas sobre a evolução de matrículas em cursos de graduação no setor privado e público, números de instituições de educação superior públicas e privadas, programas de financiamento estudantil e de assistência estudantil. Por meio de análises interpretativistas, concluiu-se que o Estado tem direcionado o enfoque da educação superior para o setor privado, ao mesmo tempo em que tem promovido políticas públicas para o financiamento e assistência aos estudantes que desejam ingressar e permanecer em cursos de graduação. Palavras-Chave: Universidades. Gestão Universitária. Educação Superior. Indicadores. Abstract: The relationship between universities and society is intrinsic, in which one influence the other, and both benefit from this relationship. However, some authors have reflected whether this relationship is balanced and whether the resulting one contributes to a socially democratic environment. With the objective of contrasting higher education indicators whit the reflections of some authors, under the public and private sector approach, this article raised empirical research on the evolution of enrollment in undergraduate courses in the private and public sector, numbers of higher education institutions public and private, student finance and student assistance programs. Through interpretive analysis, it was conclude that the State has directed the focus of higher education on the private sector, while promoting public policies for financing and assisting students who wish to enter and remain in undergraduate courses.

Education Indicators

The purpose of this chapter is to present the intervention in personalized education for the Programming Methodology course in higher education. Indicators such as dropout rate, failing rate, and poor academic performance of the students of Universidad Tecnológica de Puebla (UTP) are necessary to propose strategies that improve education quality. Therefore, during the four-month periods of September – December in 2016 and 2017, the authors performed interventions with the strategy of personalized education with the objective to improve the indicators mentioned above. The four strategy elements are 1) content, 2) work methods, 3) pace and times, and 4) assessments options. The study that is presented in this chapter is original because it avoids a unique starting point for all students. The study attempts to go over what the students have in common; this is why the authors were able to stimulate each student to be in charge of their own knowledge freely and responsibly.
