Abstract (English):	Academic achievement is defined as the appropriation of the contents proposed in the curricular programs by the student, reflected in the qualifications obtained by the student in his training process, the result of the development of the activities and other methodological strategies defined by the teacher. The factors with the greatest impact on academic performance are: the repetition of subjects, methods and pedagogical spaces not suitable for study, lack of professional orientation and methodological strategies. The objective of the present study was to analyze the variables associated with the academic performance of university students enrolled in the subject of Informatics of an institution of higher education. For the purposes of the study, a sample of the final grades of the course was taken beginning in the period 2015 -I and ending in 2016- II. Two instruments were used to collect information to identify whether the methodological strategy used by the teacher facilitated the learning process and whether the students had personal computer equipment. For the treatment of the data, the experimental design was used under a factorial arrangement whose study factors were the teacher that guided the subject, the professional program where the subject was taught and the disposition of a computer of own calculation by the students for practice at home; the results indicated that the interaction between the factors methodological strategies applied by the teacher and the technological limitations prevent the student from deepening the knowledge through the practice of influencing academic performance.

Abstract (Spanish):	El rendimiento académico se define como la apropiación de los contenidos propuestos en los programas curriculares por parte del estudiante, reflejado en las calificaciones obtenidas por este en su proceso de formación, y como resultado del desarrollo de las actividades y demás estrategias metodológicas definidas por el docente. Los factores con mayor impacto en el rendimiento académico son: la repitencia de asignaturas, métodos y espacios pedagógicos no adecuados para el estudio, falta de orientación profesional y estrategias metodológicas. El objetivo del presente estudio fue realizar un análisis de las variables asociadas al rendimiento académico de los estudiantes universitarios matriculados en la asignatura Informática de una institución de educación superior. Para efectos del estudio, se tomó una muestra de las calificaciones finales del curso iniciando en el periodo 2015 -I y finalizando en el 2016- II. Los datos fueron recolectados mediante la aplicación de dos instrumentos, uno para identificar si la estrategia metodológica utilizada por el docente facilitaba el proceso de aprendizaje y el otro si los estudiantes contaban con un equipo de cómputo personal. Para el tratamiento de los datos, se utilizó el diseño experimental bajo arreglo factorial cuyos factores de estudio fueron el docente que orientó la asignatura, el programa profesional donde se impartió la asignatura y la disposición de un equipo de cómputo propio por parte de los estudiantes para realizar las prácticas extra clase; los resultados obtenidos indicaron que la interrelación entre los factores, estrategias metodológicas que aplica el docente y las limitaciones tecnológicas impiden que el estudiante profundice el conocimiento a través de la práctica incidiendo en el rendimiento académico.
