Abstract

REINOSO-GONZALEZ, Eduardo; PARRA-PONCE, Paula  and  PEREZ-VILLALOBOS, Cristhian. Teaching competencies in clinical preceptor: how competent do physiotherapy tutors perceive themselves?. FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2019, vol.22, n.6, pp.263-267.  Epub Mar 09, 2020. ISSN 2014-9840.  https://dx.doi.org/10.33588/fem.226.1023.

Introduction:

Clinical teaching is different from classroom teaching, because it is more closely linked to professional development. For this reason, it requires specific competences in clinical preceptors who guide this formative moment.

Subjects and methods:

A quantitative study was conducted, where 70 clinical preceptors of physiotherapy were surveyed. The Clinical Preceptors Competencies Questionnaire was applied to them, with prior informed consent.

Results:

Clinical tutors had a positive perception of their pedagogical competencies, but they are more critical of their capacities for resource design, evaluation and planning. Likewise, these perceptions are related to disciplinary training, pedagogical training and physiotherapy specialty.

Conclusion:

Results show the importance of teaching training for the development of pedagogical competencies, especially those not linked to direct teaching. The context dependent nature of competencies is also underlined.
