Abstract

Este artículo analiza el efecto del municipio sobre el resultado académico del estudiante de la prueba Estatal Colombiana Saber 11. A partir de modelos lineales jerárquicos con regresión cuantílica nuestros resultados sugieren que el entorno de desarrollo tiene un efecto significativo sobre la punuación en matemáticas para los estudiantes en los cuartiles analizados. De esta forma, los hacedores de política pública deberán tener en cuenta las condiciones del lugar donde viven los estudiantes a la hora de formular políticas educativas encaminadas a mejorar la calidad educativa, ya que esto puede incidir sobre la desigualdad y las oportunidades para acceder a la educación superior. || This article analyzes the effect of the municipality on the academic result of the Colombian State test student “Saber 11”. From linear hierarchical models with quantile regression, our results suggest that the type of municipality has a significant effect on students' academic achievement in mathematics for the quartiles studied. In this way, public policy makers must take into account the conditions of the place where students live when formulating educational policies aimed at improving educational quality, since this may affect inequality and opportunities to access higher education.
