Abstract

The health emergency experienced worldwide due to COVID-19 during the years 2020 and 2021 has had a major impact on the educational field.

The case of Costa Rica has not been the exception, where this eventuality, together with other factors such as the union strike in 2018 and the disasters caused by atmospheric phenomena such as hurricanes Otto and Nate, have caused a general lag in education. . Based on this set of factors, this article proposes a series of workshops to address the lag experienced by the high school graduate student population in Costa Rica. These workshops seek to improve logical-mathematical, research, language skills, and soft skills in first-year students at the Pacific Campus of the University of Costa Rica. These initiatives promote the awareness and participation of the teaching staff by applying effective techniques and methodologies for teaching in the university educational system, according to the characteristics and profile of the new generations of students who are received at the University of Costa Rica.
