Title
The importance of cooperation centres for HE students' dropout prevention.
Abstract
The relevance of academic centres and initiatives in helping students' adaptation in their academic life has been exploited to further improve their studies commitment and motivation. In this paper it is made an analysis of what factors influences HE students to give up of their academic career. Therefore, it is presented through ACACIA project, namely the CADEP centre, solutions to identify students with common dropout characteristics or profiles and methods supported by institutional cooperative approaches focused on such students' factors with the goal of preventing future dropouts. To accomplish the installation of the proposed CADEP centre it is presented a framework centralised in its Convoca module, which proposes a solution to articulate, organize and develop cooperation centres inside universities and services that integrates the students' needs and their inclusion. Additionally, a scenario reflecting up two current situations able to justify the need of having such centres is presented. In the future, after having such centres deployed it is expected to reduce dropout levels and increase extra motivation in students to conduct innovations creation and development for society inclusion supported by local, regional national and even international cooperative initiatives.
