Abstract (English): Objective: The Covid-19 pandemic interrupted face-to-face education in most countries of the world. Colombian universities were no exception and now, with the return to physical classrooms, they face new challenges to guarantee student retention and prevent academic dropouts from increasing. In this sense, the present study aimed to identify the motivations and fears experienced by some Colombian university students when returning to the physical classroom, and how these variables intervene in the decision to return or drop out. The results provide relevant knowledge about the challenges of higher education in the post-pandemic period. Materials and Method: This descriptive-explanatory research involved a convenience sampling of professional career students in Colombia. Two reliable scales were applied to evaluate the perception of these students in each of the factors and indicators associated with the variables analyzed. Results: It was found that the main motivations for returning had to do with improving performance and recovering academic normality. These motivations proved to be a significant predictor that strengthens the decision to return. In contrast, psychosocial and economic fears increase the risk of desertion. Conclusion: The fears identified in this new normality when they are not learned to manage are risk factors for desertion, while academic and psychological motivations are protective factors. In the final discussion, educational and health recommendations are provided to prevent dropout. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): Objetivo: La pandemia de Covid-19 interrumpió la educación presencial en la mayoría de los países del mundo. Las universidades colombianas no fueron la excepción, y ahora, con el regreso a las aulas físicas, enfrentan nuevos desafíos para garantizar la permanencia estudiantil y evitar que los casos de abandono académico sigan aumentando. En ese sentido, este estudio se propuso como objetivo identificar las motivaciones y temores que experimentan algunos universitarios colombianos al volver a la presencialidad, y cómo estas variables intervienen en la decisión de retornar o desertar. Los resultados aportan conocimientos relevantes sobre los desafíos de la educación superior en el contexto de la postpandemia. Materiales y método: Esta investigación fue de tipo descriptiva-explicativa. Participó una muestra por conveniencia de estudiantes de carreras profesionales en Colombia. Se aplicaron dos escalas confiables que evaluaron la percepción de estos estudiantes en cada uno de los factores e indicadores asociados a las variables analizadas. Resultados: Se encontró que las principales motivaciones para volver tienen que ver con mejorar el rendimiento y recuperar la normalidad académica. Estas motivaciones demostraron ser un predictor significativo que fortalece la decisión de regresar. En cambio, los temores a nivel psicosocial y económico aumentan el riesgo de deserción. Conclusión: Los temores en esta nueva normalidad, cuando no se aprenden a manejar, son factores de riesgo de deserción, mientras que las motivaciones académicas y psicológicas son factores protectores. En la discusión final se ofrecen recomendaciones educativas y de salud para prevenir la deserción. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
