TRETO BRAVO, Inés et al. The methodological work in the subjects: a commitment of the clinical cycle in Medicine. EDUMECENTRO [online]. 2017, vol.9, n.4, pp.180-193. ISSN 2077-2874.

Background: the preparation of the subject is a type of methodological work that contributes to the quality of the teaching-learning process. Objective: to characterize the methodological activity for the preparation of subjects that are taught in the clinical cycle of the medical career. Methodology: an essentially qualitative descriptive research was carried out at "Mártires del 9 de Abril", University Teaching Hospital of Sagua la Grande, Villa Clara, during the academic year 2014-2015. Theoretical methods were used for the theoretical foundations of the investigation and empirical ones for the obtaining and analysis of the information. Results: in a general way, teachers mostly have the teaching rank of assistant professors and have passed the Pedagogy basic course; however, they showed deficiencies in the knowledge of the guiding documents of the methodological work, and the year and subject teaching staffs do not perform with the required quality, which affects the preparation of the subjects, a situation that was corroborated by the scientific observation to certain teaching activities, in which deficiencies were identified. Conclusions: the methodological work for the preparation of the subjects during the clinical cycle of the medical career carried out at "Mártires del 9 de Abril", University Teaching Hospital of Sagua la Grande, is still insufficient for the achievement of teaching quality in this area.
