- Abstract
Adolescence, a period of growth between childhood and adulthood (from 13 to 18 years old), is revealed as a critical stage, characterized by profound physiological and psychological transformations. In the scope of this research, we worked with a sample of 60 students from Secondary School No. 8, both in the morning shift and in the afternoon shift. An instrument was designed with 45 variables measured from 0 to 100 where 0 is the absence of the attribute and 100 its maximum presence, where 5 of them are significant such as age, sex, average of the previous school year, participation in extracurricular activities and change. Among the main conclusions, it was found that the student who expresses a genuine need to learn is capable of developing various academic skills, influenced by factors such as motivation, which improves their academic performance. As an intervention proposal, the creation of a model aimed at training teachers in motivation methods in the classroom is suggested. In addition, it is proposed to hold conferences for parents and teachers on the importance of motivation in adolescents and the factors that affect academic performance.
