Abstract
SUAREZ GONZALEZ, Juan Antonio; GOMEZ GONZALEZ, Ydalmis; GUTIERREZ MACHADO, Mario and CRESPO PEREIRA, Gudelia Maira. The pedagogical preparation, a necessity for tutors in the Obstetrics and Gynecology specialty. Rev EDUMECENTRO [online]. 2012, vol.4, n.3, pp. 105-115. ISSN 2077-2874.
A descriptive research work was carried out with the objective to identify the modalities, the pedagogical preparation received and the scientific and educational production of the professors who assume the tutorial teaching at the Mariana Grajales Gynecological university Hospital. A questionnaire was applied to the professors and there were checked the individual working agreements and their personal records as well as the institution teaching and researching files. The teaching staff has 53 professors, the majority of them have received a basic formation in medical education, but their publications and research works dealing with pedagogical aspects are very few compared to other scientific topics and they lack knowledge about tutorial teaching. It is stated the necessity to carry out teaching actions which favor the proper direction of the post graduate teaching-learning process, which is a remarkable necessity for tutors.
