FERNANDEZ ALEMAN, Miguel Alejandro; ESTRADA MOLINA, Odiel; MARTINEZ MARTINEZ, Elisa  y  HERNANDEZ HERNANDEZ, Bárbara Aymeé. Assessment of developing Physiology II as a virtual subject in the specialty of Clinical Neurophysiology. Educ Med Super [online]. 2021, vol.35, n.3, e2951.  Epub 01-Sep-2021. ISSN 0864-2141.

Introduction:

Teaching through virtual modality was adopted as a preventive measure against the COVID-19 spread. For Cuban medical education, it has implied a challenge regarding the reorganization of study programs. For this purpose, the subject Physiology II was redesigned and implemented in virtual modality, in order to guarantee continuity in the training of Clinical Neurophysiology residents.

Objective:

To assess the development of the subject Physiology II in its virtual modality from the perspective of the students of the Clinical Neurophysiology specialty.

Methods:

Exploratory, nonexperimental and cross-sectional study. Through a questionnaire made up of closed questions and one open question (positive and negative aspects), the development of the subject in virtual modality was assessed in relation to the variables subject syllabus, professors’ performance, platform scenario, and technological support.

Results:

The subject Physiology II in virtual modality had a high acceptance by the students. The aspects identified as positive were those related to individual time management, as well as the subject’s applicability and structure; while the negative ones were oriented towards internet connectivity problems and the study environment.

Conclusions:

The successful experiences obtained in the development of Physiology II as a virtual subject lay the foundations for using this type of design in the specialty of Clinical Neurophysiology and the possibility of extending it to other subjects of the study plan.
