| Summary: | <strong>Introduction:</strong> Several scientific investigations report that the problem-based learning of Chemistry is dynamic and effective, and that the students reject science lessons which are based on memorization learning. <br /><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 150%;"><span style="color: #000000; font-family: verdana; font-size: small;"><strong> Objective:</strong> To assess a proposal of activities based on task-based teaching for the improvement of the teaching-learning process of General Chemistry, given to residents in specialties of the Basic Biomedical Sciences<strong>. <br /> Material and Methods:</strong> The modeling method and system conception were both used, and a group of methodological actions was also included. The proposal was also assessed by a group of 11 specialists that used the prospective method "Link among specialists or experts´ opinions". An anonymous questionnaire was also applied to the students after the application of the proposal during the teaching-learning process, and the results were assessed using the descriptive statistics. <strong><br /> Results:</strong> It was confirmed that there is a degree of agreement on the criteria expressed by the specialists. The proposal fulfils the objectives of the subject, and provides residents´ motivation for the study after applying their knowledge in an integrated form. The questionnaire showed that the activities proposed provided approximately a 95 % of benefits in the understanding of the contents of the subject, and approximately 54 % of these contents have been put into practice during the professional fulfilment of the specialties in the Basic Biomedical Sciences. <strong><br /> Conclusions:</strong> The proposal of activities based on task-based learning contributes to the improvement of the teaching-learning process of General Chemistry in the specialties of the Basic Biomedical Sciences.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify; line-height: 150%;"><span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;"><strong>Keywords:</strong> teaching-learning process, problem solving, Basic Biomedical Sciences.</span></p> |
