Resumen
VIVES-VARELA, Tania et al. Faculty and student experience during remote emergency education: opportunities for improving undergraduate medical education. FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2023, vol.26, n.4, pp.151-158. Epub 12-Feb-2024. ISSN 2014-9840. https://dx.doi.org/10.33588/fem.264.1290.
Introduction
During medical education, undergraduate clinical cycles represent the main scenarios where students consolidate knowledge. However, in the early 2020s, most students were confined to their homes due to the SARS-Cov-2 pandemic. In this situation, the digital network allowed the educational processes to continue from their homes through remote emergency education (REE), a teaching modality based on the intensive use of technology that, despite having been improvised, responded to the emergency educational situation. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the educational experience of students and teachers in the undergraduate clinical years of the medical degree in order to identify opportunities for improvement in teaching after the health crisis.
Subjects and methods
A descriptive qualitative study was carried out with a phenomenological approach through the focus group technique. The qualitative analysis was based on data reduction and triangulation between strata and subject literature.
Results
Sixteen focus groups were integrated with a total of 148 participants. Four categories were identified: a) teaching and learning; b) evaluation of clinical practice; c) professional identity, and d) suggestions for improvement in the training of physicians.
Conclusions
The reflections lead to recognizing the need to incorporate digital technology designed by experts and teachers to adapt them to the real needs of the educational contexts and to continue with a hybrid or combined model that supports the improvement of medical education.
