Opis:This article presents the perceptions of indigenous students in the Sarapiquí Campus of the Universidad Nacional (UNA) about their insertion and performance in computer applications courses in the program for Office Management studies. The study shows that the lack of knowledge about computer use, and resistance of these cultures to technology, causes these students to begin their university studies at a disadvantage. It is therefore important to understand how the cultural and academic backgrounds of these students influences their university performance. In addition, the didactic strategies promoted by teachers of these courses to facilitate the learning and adaptation process of this specific population to the University are discussed. Finally, the importance of promoting initiatives to facilitate successful insertion and adequate performance of indigenous students to guarantee their continuation at the University is justified.
