LABRADA ESPINOSA, Adalis; FERNANDEZ HERNANDEZ, Juan Manuel  and  SANCHEZ GARCIA, Eva. Some considerations about the formation of the environmental culture in the medical career. Educ Med Super [online]. 2013, vol.27, n.4, pp.333-339. ISSN 0864-2141.

With the objective of deepening into the didactic preparation of the medical students in the School of Medical Sciences located in Bayamo, four pedagogic workshops, two of them directed to the students, and the others to the professors, were carried out. It was concluded that there exist significant deficiencies affecting the didactic preparation of these students, which have an impact on the formation of the environmental culture in the medical career. The limitations for the insertion of an environmental dimension into the disciplines, the poor knowledge related to this culture, and the deficiencies in the process dynamics were the reasons for setting out mid and short-term strategies to solve these problems. The curricula of the medical career were reviewed. The design of a pedagogic model to promote the formation of the environmental culture in these students seems to be an impact solution for the deficiencies found.

Keywords : students medicine; formation of environmental culture; pedagogic model.
