Strategy of professional orientation towards agricultural careers in Pre-university/Estrategia de orientación profesional hacia las carreras agropecuarias en Preuniversitario

Abstract

The present investigation arose due to the need to solve the problem of insufficiencies in the process of professional orientation towards agricultural careers in pre-university education. The main objective of this work is to design a strategy to improve the professional orientation process towards the agricultural specialties of higher education. The dialectical-materialist method was assumed as the general method, which supports the theoretical and empirical methods used. The results highlight current shortcomings in the professional guidance received by pre-university students and present a career guidance strategy that favors this process. The proposal was an effective way to increase the motivation of students towards agricultural specialties, as long as the extracurricular actions designed are developed in close connection with the curricular ones. It is applied at the Israel Pardo Guerra Pre university School "in the Guamá municipality. The proposal is pertinent because it responds to a social need, it offers the possibility of integrating the school, family and community factors under specific conditions of the territory, as well as the active participation of its actors, where each one assumes their role in a conscious way.
