VELIZ, Claudia; CANTARUTTI, Cynthia; OPAZO, Lucy y GOMEZ, María J. Self-instruction for the efficient search of information for undergraduate students of Dentistry at a Chilean university. FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2020, vol.23, n.5, pp.275-279. Epub 23-Nov-2020. ISSN 2014-9840. https://dx.doi.org/10.33588/fem.235.1083.
Introduction.
To carry out an evidence-based clinical practice, health professionals must know how to recognize their knowledge gaps and have the necessary tools to search for information in order to improve their teaching methodology. Three self-learning capsules were designed to search efficiently for information.
Subjects and methods.
The capsules were applied in courses of the 1st, 5th and 8th semesters of the dentistry degree. The results were analyzed at levels 1 and 2 of the Kirkpatrick program evaluation model. Each capsule was evaluated in online mode through an application task and a and a fulfilling objectives questionnaire.
Results.
The self-instruction capsules were applied to a total of 218 students. The satisfaction survey showed high values for students and teachers considering the methodology and content, highlighting the b-learning modality and the quality of the instructional material. All of the students approved the evaluation associated with each capsule. The average perception of goal achievement was 72% for capsule 1, 80% for capsule 2 and 84% for capsule 3, with a higher proportion of positive differences (p = 0.00).
Conclusion.
In terms of reaction and learning, it is an effective methodology to use self-instruction capsules for teaching evidence seeking.
