Background:

the COVID-19 pandemic imposed distance learning as a viable alternative to train health professionals, where irregularities were identified during the evaluation.

Objective:

to develop a methodology for distance evaluation in the subject Cardiovascular, Respiratory, Digestive and Renal Systems in the Medicine degree.

Methods:

a development research with a mixed approach was carried out from March 2021 to December 2022, in the Medicine program of the “Mariana Grajales Coello” Faculty of Medical Sciences in Holguín. Theoretical, empirical and statistical methods were used that enabled the theoretical-methodological systematization of the topic, delving into the current state of the object and determining the need for a methodology to solve the scientific problem. The criteria of specialists was applied to evaluate the relevance and viability of the proposal.

Results:

a methodology is proposed for the evaluation of distance learning of the subject Cardiovascular, Respiratory, Digestive and Renal Systems in the Medicine degree that integrates the fundamentals of the evaluation of learning in medical sciences and the particularities of distance education in higher education. This is structured in two subsystems specified in the organizational and contextualizing dimensions, with stages and actions to organize the evaluation of learning.

Conclusions:

the designed methodology provides tools to the methodological group of the subject for distance evaluation in an integrated way. Its implementation facilitates the organization of the evaluation process based on the potential of the training contexts and the learning needs of the students.
