RESUMEN El colegio Americano de Guayaquil fundado hace 79 años se caracteriza por ser líder en la enseñanza bilingüe, habiendo graduado bachilleres en las especialidades de físico matemático, químico biólogos, comercio y de acuerdo a las reformas educativas actualmente gradúa bachilleres en ciencias, ciencias empresariales, y ciencias humanísticas. A lo cual debe agregarse que desde 1985 mediante convenio con la Organización de Bachillerato Internacional con sede en Ginebra, Suiza, imparte la educación IB como un agregado académico que ha dado relevancia a los graduados de esta institución, por cuanto además de ser bachilleres de calidad internacional, dominan el inglés como un segundo idioma, lo que permite que tengan acceso para realizar sus estudios superiores en prestigiosas universidades del exterior. Las autoridades de educación del país han otorgado los permisos correspondientes, autorizando que el Colegio Americano de Guayaquil enseñe su malla curricular de estudios bajo el sistema de IB en idioma inglés, lo cual lo ha convertido en el pionero y líder de este sistema de enseñanza en la región Costa.   ABSTRACT The Colegio Americano de Guayaquil was founded 79 years ago.  It is characterized by being a leader in bilingual education.  It has submitted High School Diplomas to many students in the Physical Mathematic Science, Chemical Biology Science and Business specializations.  According to the educational reforms, currently it graduates students in Science, Business Science and Humanistic Sciences.  It must be added that since 1985, the International Baccalaureate Organization, Geneva, Switzerland, provides IB education as an academic added value, which has given a high relevance to the graduates of this institution since, besides being international high school graduates, they are proficient in English as a second language; this allows them to enter prestigious universities abroad. The Ecuadorian education authorities have authorized the Colegio Americano to teach the curriculum under the English IB system.  In this way, the School has become the pioneer and leader of this education system in the Coast region.

Population-health research has neglected differentiation within postsecondary educational attainments. This gap is critical to understanding health inequality because college experience with no degree, vocational/technical certificates, and associate degrees may affect health differently. We examine health across detailed postsecondary attainment levels. We analyze data on 14,750 respondents in Waves I and IV of the nationally representative Add Health panel spanning adolescence to ages 26 to 34. Multivariate regression and counterfactual approaches to minimize the impact of confounders estimate multiple health outcomes across postsecondary attainment levels. Compared to high school diplomas, we find significant returns to bachelor’s degrees for most health outcomes and smaller but largely significant returns to associate degrees. In contrast, adults with some college but no degree or with vocational/technical certificates do not have better physical health than high school graduates. Our findings highlight the stark differentiation within higher education as reflected by the disparate health outcomes in early adulthood.

El estudio del desarrollo de los proyectos de vida que construyen los jóvenes siempre ha sido de vital importancia para el sistema educativo mexicano, desafortunadamente la mayoría de los programas implementados se centran al ámbito escolar y al desempeño académico de los jóvenes. El presente trabajo muestra una opción que responde a una mirada mediacional. El impacto que se busca es cambiar radicalmente la forma de trabajo que se da dentro de los departamentos de tutoría y orientación en los centros educativos dando pautas para una intervención donde se trabaje tomando en cuenta el contexto de los ciudadanos más críticos y reflexivos que puedan responder a las demandas de una sociedad en continuo cambio.

The dynamics of several demographic indicators of Russia - child and teenage cohorts in 1970-2000, life expectancy in 1995-2000, migration flows among federal districts in the period between two censuses of 1989 and 2002 - are considered in the article. The author puts forward the hypothesis about the influence of these indicators on the level of education in narrow and broad senses - in educational institutions and the society as a whole. He estimates the perspectives of regional higher educational institutions under conditions of absence of plan distribution of graduates and the double cyclical fall in the number of high school graduates. The agenda for the development of a two-stage system of higher education corresponding with international integration processes is formulated.
