RODRIGUEZ-PADIAL, Luis; MEDINA-RIVILLA, Antonio e CACHEIRO-GONZALEZ, María Luz. Improvement proposals of information and communication technology in continuing medical education. FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2015, vol.18, n.5, pp.345-351. ISSN 2014-9840. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S2014-98322015000600009.
Introduction: Both education and medicine have been transformed by information technology (IT), which should play an important role in continuing medical education (CME). However, IT has important limitations that should be known and corrected for greater teacher effectiveness and implementation thereof. Therefore, our aim was to seek feedback from users about IT and its proposals for improving them. Subjects and methods: A questionnaire on the Internet hosted on the website of the Signo Foundation was used with the intention of getting feedback from users and their suggestions for improvement of IT in CME. Results: Information from 661 healthcare professionals, 56.7% of whom were male, was obtained. The average age is 48.9 years. The lack of interaction between student and teacher (30.3%), lack of objectivity of the evaluation of the knowledge acquired (18.2%), no accreditation of courses (17.1%) and low intervention of students (11.8%) are the most important limitations of IT observed. Therefore, establishing good student-teacher contact (21.8%) and promoting greater student interaction during the learning process (20.4%) are proposed strategies for improvement. Conclusions: This group has proposed an enhanced teacher-student interaction as the main strategy to improve the teaching effectiveness of IT in CME.
