ABSTRACT
Background: in the 2017-2018 academic year, the Blood and Immune System subject was introduced in the third semester of the Medicine degree, according to the new study plan.Objectives: to identify the degree of satisfaction and performance of students in the Blood and Immune System subject of recent incorporation in the Study Plan D.
Methods: a descriptive study was carried out at Villa Clara University of Medical Sciences in the academic year 2017-2018. Theoretical methods were used: analysis-synthesis and induction-deduction, empirical ones: the survey in the form of a questionnaire in two specific moments of the semester (fourth and fifteenth weeks), and mathematical-statistics for data processing.
Results: in general, the introduction of the Blood and Immune System subject in the curriculum had an adequate level of acceptance by the students and this evolved in a positive way to the extent that the course lasted. In cases of dissatisfaction, the main cause was linked to the difficulty of the subjects taught. There is a preference for workshops and laboratory practices, and a course project work as a final evaluation, and not with a theoretical exam.
Conclusions: the level of satisfaction expressed by the students with the subject was adequate, not so the performance since most acknowledged not having the basic knowledge about its content, aspects that were taken into account in its subsequent teaching.
