Implementation of information and communications technologies in Internal Medicine undergraduate courses. Rev. cuba. inf. cienc. salud [online]. 2021, vol.32, n.4 Epub 01-Feb-2022. ISSN 2307-2113.
Informatization of society is a social need leading to collaborative information search and content updating. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of an educational intervention fostering the use of information and communications technologies in the teaching-learning process of Internal Medicine undergraduate courses. A quasi-experimental study was conducted at the branch university campus of the Municipality of Gibara from September 2018 to June 2019. The study population was 29 students and eight teachers meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria, who answered input and output questionnaires. Smartphones prevailed among the personal aids available for the use of information and communications technologies (100%). The intervention showed that knowledge about the search for, management and processing of information was adequate in 94.59%, whereas 100% of the participants use traditional methods in Internal Medicine teaching activities. The alternative method was evaluated as adequate by 100% of the participant teachers and students.
