Abstract

The goal of this investigation is to describe the social profile of a sample of higher education students from the National Polytechnic Institute (IPN, Mexico), based on their education needs as well as on their expectations about their learning and teacher practices. As a consequence of the transformation of the Education System for the XXI century, which has innovation as its axis, and with the objective of raising the quality of education, teachers face the challenge of innovating their practices to fulfill student's real needs. With an exploratory-descriptive study, 497 students were surveyed in order to develop the profile. Results show that the students are permanently connected to the web, have an orientation towards practical and concrete knowledge, possess high self-esteem and they are certain about their academic success.
