RUIZ-RAMIREZ, Rosalva et al. Impact of Covid-19 on students in high schools located in rural communities in México. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2023, vol.21, n.1, pp.139-158.  Epub 25-Abr-2023. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/rlcsnj.21.1.5332.

The educational process shifted from schools to the home for Mexicans as a result of COVID-19. The objective was to analyze the economic, family and academic impact of COVID-19 among students from rural communities attending high school in Sinaloa. The methodology used for the study was the quantitative. The statistical sample size was 222 students from the Universidad Autónoma de Sinaloa, in México, who respond to an online questionnaire. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and correlational analysis. The results showed three types of problems: economic issues due to lack of income to buy the technological items required for online learning; family problems, specifically the lack of support provided by parents to help children with distance education; and academic difficulties, because there was little training provided to students on the use of technology. The authors concluded that COVID-19 caused difficulties and highlighted the existence of a digital divide, social inequality and educational lag.

Palabras clave : Distance education; digital divide; learning difficulties; school dropouts.
