📚 Seminario MAP Setiembre 2026: ¿Los niños con hermanos vieron más afectado su aprendizaje durante la pandemia?
Francisco Pardo de UT Austin nos trae una pregunta que muchas familias vivieron en carne propia durante la pandemia: ¿ayuda o perjudica tener hermanos cuando las clases son en casa? Usando datos de todos los estudiantes peruanos, el estudio encuentra que el tiempo que los padres pueden dedicar a cada hijo es clave para entender por qué algunos niños se rezagaron más que otros.
🗓️ Lunes 21 setiembre, 12PM (hora Perú). Modera: Cristian Maraví @cmaravi20 de Universidad de Piura. Más información: sites.google.com/view/semina…
