Abstract

Introduction: This article analyzes the factors related to the promotion of good educational practices that improve the academic performance of students in the distance learning Public Accounting program at the Corporación Universitaria Minuto de Dios. Methodology: A systematic literature review and a descriptive methodological approach were conducted. The population included 441 students, with a representative sample of 100 students who completed the MSLQ (Motivated Strategies Learning Questionnaire) through simple random sampling. The relationship between motivation, learning strategies, and academic performance was evaluated. Results: A positive correlation was identified between academic performance, good educational practices, and acquired competencies. The Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient analysis showed internal consistency among the evaluated factors, suggesting a significant relationship with academic and professional success. Discussion: The study highlights the importance of reflective and guided pedagogical strategies in the academic and research development of students, influencing their autonomy and professional success. Conclusions: The implementation of pedagogical strategies that foster student autonomy is recommended, contributing to the academic and professional success of Public Accounting students.
