ABSTRACT

A research work was conducted in undergraduate teaching to identify those factors related to the introduction of the Human Morphology I subject within the National Program for the Formation of Integrated Community Physicians. This research took into account the views of the professors and the students who were involved in such a program in Paez municipality, Portuguesa state, Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela during the first academic year when this program was implemented. The universe was made up of 101 students and 70 professors from 6 educational groups but the final sample comprised 38 students and 21 professors from two randomly selected groups. Each group answered a 15-question and a 20-question survey respectively whereas the head of the educational groups and the teaching activists of the municipalities were interviewed since they were considered key informants. The implementation of these instruments and methods allowed unveiling several favorable and unfavorable factors related to the development of Human Morphophysiology I subject within the National Program for the Formation of Integrated Community Physicians. The favorable ones prevailed, that is, the satisfaction with the subject curriculum, the linking of theory and practice, the methodological preparation of professors and their commitment to the teaching performance. Among the negative factors, there were the poor condition of some physician's offices in the community, the assistance burden upon the professors and the social and economic conditions of certain students.
