VILLAR VALDES, Melba; CANIZARES LUNA, Oscar  e  SARASA MUNOZ, Nélida Liduvina. Behavior of the didactic work with the intellectual abilities in the teaching of the Morphology-physiology discipline. EDUMECENTRO [online]. 2015, vol.7, n.4, pp. 24-41. ISSN 2077-2874.

Background: the subjects of the biomedical basic sciences play a major role in the formation and development of intellectual abilities; they facilitate to apply the acquired scientific knowledge by the students to the new situations that may be present in their medical practice. Objective: to characterize the didactic work with the intellectual abilities in the teaching activities of the Morphology-physiology discipline in the Medicine Faculty of Villa Clara University of Medical of Sciences. Methods: it was carried out a descriptive investigation, with a qualitative approach during the academic year 2012-2013 and the first semester of 2013-2014. Theoretical methods were used: analysis-synthesis and inductive-deductive and empiric ones: it was carried out a non participant observation to 29 teaching activities, imparted by professors of diverse teaching ranks, all the subjects comprised in the Morphology-physiology discipline were included as well as all the teaching forms. Results: the main difficulties are centered in not declaring the abilities to work with during classes explicitly, not to use the problem-solving teaching as teaching strategy sufficiently and not to have an evaluation system that includes the abilities with their corresponding values. Conclusions: the current teaching learning process of the biomedical basic sciences presents inadequacies in the didactic performance of the professors that affect the quality of the development of intellectual abilities.
