Introduction:
In higher medical education, students´ s opinions are valuable tools to assess the quality of the educational teaching process. In the Internal Medicine subject, it is important to determine the most profitable and attractive learning resources for students, with the purpose of improving the quality of the educational teaching process.
Objectives:
To identify the usefulness that students attribute to the didactic resources for learning the theoretical contents of Internal Medicine.
Methods:
A descriptive and cross-sectional observational study was carried out at “Joaquín Albarrán Domínguez” Clinical-Surgical Teaching Hospital. The sample included 483 students of the Internal Medicine of 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 school years, to whom a survey was applied to identify their opinions on the usefulness they attribute to the resources for learning theoretical contents of Internal Medicine.
Results:
67.5% of students prefer to have digital materials made by teachers with questions for self-assessment, 67.3% consider that they can learn theoretical content of the subject only through independent study, 32.1 % find it useful to attend the lectures and 84.1% prefer to consult the professor to clarify their questions.
Conclusions:
In order to achieve better efficiency in learning theoretical contents of Internal Medicine, workshop- class modalities should be promoted to take into account the expectations of the students and promote the use of didactic resources for active learning.
