CANIZARES LUNA, Oscar et al. A conceptual-methodological stance for the state examination of human anatomy. Educ Med Super [online]. 2022, vol.36, n.2 Epub May 01, 2022. ISSN 1561-2902.
Introduction:
The state examination in Cuban medical specialties ensure quality in competences and professional performance. Its technical and methodological quality should be subjected to permanent improvement as a responsible action towards academic excellence.
Objective:
To promote a conceptual-methodological stance for the improvement of the practical-theoretical examination of the Human Anatomy specialty.
Methods:
The methods of analysis-synthesis, participative observation and documental review were used.
Results:
An assessment proposal was obtained in the context of the specialization in Human Anatomy, with specific actions for the improvement of the practical and theoretical examination of this specialty.
Conclusions:
The theoretical and practical foundations presented are pertinent to overcome weaknesses of previous state examinations, as well as to favor, in the Human Anatomy resident, the development of a holistic thinking during her or his training process, with the benefit of greater competences and better teaching and research performance.
