INCLAN-RUBIO, Virginia; JESUS-MARTINEZ, Ricardo; LOPEZ-TOLEDO, Gustavo y SAMPIERI-CABRERA, Raúl. Curricular design of a physiology training diploma course. FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2024, vol.27, n.1, pp.21-27. Epub 25-Mar-2024. ISSN 2014-9840. https://dx.doi.org/10.33588/fem.271.1319.
Introduction.
The core concepts of physiology represent a significant advancement in the pedagogy of this discipline, providing a solid foundation for teaching and learning. These concepts emphasize the methodological and disciplinary principles necessary for students to effectively understand physiology. Moreover, they guide both students and teachers, influencing the design of undergraduate and postgraduate academic programs.
Materials and methods.
Curricular design based on the training needs of professors in the medical career in Mexico; the analysis of training needs was developed according to the profile of graduating Mexican doctors.
Results.
The primary outcome was the academic program for the postgraduate program called 'Certificate in Physiology Teaching', with a constructivist approach that uses the core concepts of physiology as its cornerstone. This program has been in operation for four years and has trained 35 professors from more than ten universities in Mexico. It is structured in five training stages that range from the science of learning to the planning of theoretical and practical sessions, and in each stage, the core concepts of physiology are explored and reflected upon.
Conclusions.
Academics positively value the inclusion of the core concepts of physiology as cross-cutting teaching and learning axes.
