Abstract

El gobierno colombiano impulsa una política nacional para fortalecer las competencias comunicativas en inglés en todos los niveles educativos, en especial en la educación superior, pero poco se ha escrito sobre los logros de esa política. Este artículo describe los cambios en la distribución del nivel de inglés entre el ingreso y la terminación de la educación superior. Los resultados muestran que hay una mejora, dado el paso a niveles más altos de calificación, y un aumento de la polarización.
