Abstract

SUAREZ BENITEZ, Yunnier et al. Interactive application system: José Martí and the medical sciences. EDUMECENTRO [online]. 2022, vol.14  Epub Nov 30, 2022. ISSN 2077-2874.

Background:

José Martí, National Hero of Cuba, considered that medicine was like law, a fighting profession, and that a well-tempered soul was needed to carry out this priesthood successfully.

Objective:

to design a system of interactive applications for the second year of Medicine with a view to deepening the relationship that José Martí had with medical sciences.

Methods:

a development research was carried out from September to December 2018 at the Faculty of Medical Sciences of Bayamo, Cuba. Theoretical and empirical methods were used: documentary review and student questionnaire.

Results:

an effective tool for knowledge about José Martí and his relationship with medical sciences was created; Before applying the system, most of the students in the control group reflected a low level of knowledge and little motivation on this subject; a result that was reversed after applying it, when most of the students in the experimental group achieved good grades and felt motivated by this topic.

Conclusions:

the system of interactive applications on aspects related to José Martí and medicine obtained very positive evaluations by the experts and influenced the increase of knowledge and motivation in the students, who showed an excellent acceptance for this technological innovation.

Keywords : information technologies and communication projects; medical informatics applications; students, medical; education, medical.
