El Trabajo Colaborativo como una Competencia Deseable en el Contexto del Aprendizaje de Anatomía Humana: Su Desarrollo Mediante Aula Invertida / Collaborative Work as a Desirable Competence in the Context of Learning Human Anatomy: Development Through a Flipped Classroom

El estudio de la anatomía humana como asignatura básica tiene el desafío de promover el desarrollo de competencias genéricas en los estudiantes. Tal es el caso del trabajo colaborativo, trascendental en el trabajo en salud. Así, aparece aula invertida cuyo esquema desarrolla actividades de trabajo en equipo. Por ello, el objetivo de este trabajo es analizar el impacto de aula invertida sobre el trabajo colaborativo en la enseñanza de la anatomía. Estudio cuantitativo, transversal, no experimental que involucró la implementación de aula invertida en un curso de Terapia Ocupacional de 2023. A partir de 5 sesiones planificadas se desarrollaron trabajos en 6 grupos; incluyeron síntesis de contenido y casos clínicos. Al cerrar el semestre se determinó un promedio de calificaciones (PC), junto a una autoevaluación (AE) y coevaluación (CE) que midió trabajo colaborativo mediante 3 subcompetencias (SC1-SC3) (escala 1,0 a 7,0). Se aplicaron pruebas estadísticas para determinar diferencias entre de SC1-SC3 según AE y CE, por grupos y si existe relación con PC. La prueba de U de Mann Whitney no arrojó diferencias entre AE y CE. La prueba de Friedman no evidenció diferencias entre SC1-SC3. La prueba H de Kruskal-Wallis halló diferencias de las subcompetencias según grupos; SC1 podrían influir en el PC, SC2 registra diferencias en el grupo G1 y G5, y "gestión de conflictos" (SC3) no difiere de forma destacada entre los grupos. La correlación de Spearman presenta una asociación positiva débil entre las subcompetencias y PC, aunque el valor-p no fue significativo. Es sumamente necesario potenciar el trabajo colaborativo en el inicio del pregrado. Anatomía humana, en este contexto, tiene la oportunidad de promover su desarrollo. Ello puede generarse en el marco de aula invertida, cuyo esquema promueve actividades de trabajo colaborativo, y como es sabido, en el rendimiento académico.

SUMMARY: As a basic subject, the study of human anatomy challenges the development of generic skills in students. Such is the case of collaborative work which is transcendental in the areas of healthcare work. Consequently, an inverted classroom is developed wherein teamwork activities are developed. The objective of this work is to analyze the impact of the flipped classroom on collaborative work in teaching anatomy. A quantitative, cross-sectional, non-experimental study that involved the implementation of a flipped classroom in an Occupational Therapy course in 2023 was applied. From 5 planned sessions, work was developed in 6 groups; they included content synthesis and clinical cases. At the end of the semester, a grade average (GA) was determined, along with a self-assessment (SA) and co-assessment (CA) measuring collaborative work through 3 sub competences (SC1-SC3) (scale 1.0 to 7.0). Statistical tests were applied to determine differences between SC1-SC3 according to SA and CA, by groups and if there is a relationship with GA. The Mann Whitney U test did not show differences between SA and CA. The Friedman test did not show differences between SC1-SC3. The Kruskal-Wallis H test found differences in sub competences according to groups; SC1 could influence GA, SC2 records differences in group G1 and G5, and "conflict management" (SC3) does not differ significantly between the groups. The Spearman correlation presented a weak positive association between the sub competences and GA, although the p-value was not significant. It is extremely necessary to promote collaborative work at the beginning of the undergraduate degree. In this context, human anatomy is an opportunity to promote its development. This can be generated within the framework of the inverted classroom promoting collaborative work activities, and academic performance as well.

Percepción del Aprendizaje Activo Virtual de la Anatomía Humana, por Estudiantes de la Universidad Austral de Chile / Student Perceptions of Active Learning for the Practice of Virtual Human Anatomy, a Study at the Universidad Austral de Chile

Ante la pandemia del coronavirus, hubo que reinventar la forma de hacer las actividades prácticas de laboratorio de anatomía humana, la necesidad de que sean exclusivamente virtual, elevó la exigencia. La imposibilidad de trabajar con material orgánico demandó que al menos las imágenes a utilizar fueran de alta calidad. Para lo anterior, se usaron fotografías de disecciones del laboratorio de anatomía, más digitalizaciones de estructuras humanas de nuestro laboratorio en formato 3D disponibles en la plataforma web https://anatomiahumana3d.com. No obstante lo anterior, se detectó cierto grado de desidia por parte de los estudiantes y escasa participación en las actividades prácticas. Para resolver esto se implementó una modalidad de Aprendizaje Activo, específicamente de Aula Invertida, con el fin de que sea el propio estudiante quien genere su conocimiento. Una vez terminado el proceso de enseñanza aprendizaje bajo la nueva modalidad, se realizó un estudio descriptivo, a fin de detectar falencias y proponer mejoras respecto a la metodología aplicada. Los resultados arrojaron un nivel de satisfacción por sobre el 80 %, en tanto, que solo el 5 % de los estudiantes contestó como aceptable las diferentes dimensiones evaluadas, demostrando como el sistema de aula inversa fue bien recibida por los estudiantes. Sin embargo es prudente generar futuros estudios que ayuden a mejorar este tipo de metodología, como también seguir innovando en las estrategias didácticas que aporten a la comprensión de la anatomía humana.

SUMMARY: In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic it was necessary to reinvent the way of doing practical activities in the human anatomy laboratory and the need for these to be exclusively online, raised the requirement. Due to the impossibility of using organic samples, high-quality images had to be used. Therefore, photographs of dissections from our human anatomy laboratory were used, as well as digitalization of human structures from our laboratory in a three-dimensional (3D) format available on the web platform https://anatomiahumana3d.com. However, a certain degree of laziness on the part of the students and low participation in the practical activities was detected. To solve this problem, an Active Learning modality was implemented, specifically the Flipped Classroom, so that the students themselves generate their knowledge. Once the teaching-learning process was completed under the new modality, a descriptive study was carried out to detect shortcomings and propose improvements to the methodology applied. The results showed a level of satisfaction above 80 % and only 5 % of the students evaluated the different dimensions as acceptable demonstrating how the Flipped Classroom system was well received by the students. To conclude, it is prudent to generate future studies that help to improve this type of methodology, as well as to continue innovating in didactic strategies that contribute to the understanding of human anatomy.

Una Actualización de la Enseñanza de la Anatomía Humana: Análisis Comparativo de Aula Invertida y Modelo tradicional / An Update on the Teaching of Human Anatomy: Comparative Analysis of the Flipped Classroom and the Traditional Model

La enseñanza de la Anatomía humana es trascendental para toda profesión del área de la salud. En el contexto de Chile, ésta se caracteriza por ser principalmente corte tradicional con transferencia unidireccional de la información. Actualmente se propone lograr un aprendizaje más significativo, con la ayuda de modelos como Aula invertida. El objetivo de este estudio es comparar el rendimiento académico entre el modelo tradicional (MT) y Aula invertida (AI). Se intervinieron 2 cursos de 1° año, de las carreras de Nutrición y Odontología año 2022 de la Universidad de La Frontera, en los que se aplicó MT y AI, comparando el rendimiento con un test post clase en Nutrición, y un trabajo grupal en Odontología. Se realizaron análisis estadísticos descriptivos y pruebas que compararon las notas obtenidas. En uno de los grupos se segmentaron los estudiantes por rendimiento para analizar cómo afecta cada modelo dependiendo del tipo de estudiante. Se obtuvo mejor promedio post test con AI en Nutrición; 4,9 ±1,3, en contraste con un promedio de 4,2 ±1,3 para MT (escala 1,0 a 7,0). La prueba T de Student arrojó diferencias estadísticamente significativas (p0,05) en las calificaciones de los trabajos grupales con MT y AI. Es imperante actualizar la enseñanza de la Anatomía en favor de lograr un aprendizaje significativo, mediado por el trabajo de pares y el estudiante como protagonista que propone AI, que a su vez beneficia a aquellas personas con rendimientos más bajos al comienzo.

SUMMARY: The teaching of anatomy is transcendental for every profession in the health care area. In the Chilean context, this is characterized by being mainly traditional with a one-way transfer of information. Currently, it is proposed to achieve a more significant learning, with based models such as Flipped Classroom. The objective of this study is to compare the academic performance between the traditional model (TM) and the flipped classroom (FP). Two 1st year courses were intervened, from the Nutrition and Dentistry degrees at Universidad de La Frontera in 2022, in which TM and FP were applied, comparing the performance with a post-class test in Nutrition, and workgroup in Denistry. Descriptive statistical analyzes and tests that compared the grades obtained were performed. In one of the groups, the students were segmented by performance to analyze how each model affects the type of student. A better post-test average was obtained with FP in Nutrition; 4.9 ±1.3, in contrast to an average of 4.2 ±1.3 for TM (1.0 to 7.0 scale). Student's t test showed statistically significant differences (p0.05) in the evaluations of the workgroup with TM and FP. It is imperative to improve the Anatomy´s teaching in favor of achieving significant learning, mediated by peer work and the student as the protagonist proposing FP, which in turn benefits individuals with lower performances at the beginning.

Materials and Methods: This study was done in the Department of Pharmacology in a tertiary care teaching hospital in Kerala after ethics committee approval. Two groups of students enrolled using the convenient sampling method, received three flipped classes and three lectures on the topics after crossover. Feedback was collected using a validated structured questionnaire and a common evaluation after each topic was done with a pre-validated multiple choice questions questionnaire. Results: This study has examined the perceptions of students about flipped teaching method using various teaching materials on a Likert 5-point scale. The findings indicate that flipped classroom was a better teaching method. The mean scores of flipped classrooms were high and it was found to be significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that flipped classroom is more effective for students when compared to lectures. An implication of this is the possibility that it can be used as an adjunctive method in the new curriculum.

Innovación en la enseñanza de la anatomía humana: aula invertida y su aplicación / Innovation in the teaching of human anatomy: flipped classroom implementation

El contexto actual involucra un acceso cada vez más universal a las tecnologías e información, lo que repercute fuertemente en el aula. Los estudiantes se muestran pasivos y reacios al Modelo Tradicional de enseñanza. De esta manera las innovaciones toman protagonismo, tal es el caso del modelo Aula Invertida (AI). El objetivo de este trabajo es describir la aplicación de AI en la enseñanza de la Anatomía humana en un entorno universitario. Se intervinieron 4 sesiones de la asignatura de Anatomía General de un curso de 41 estudiantes. Se abordó el contenido en 3 etapas: pre clase, clase y post clase, utilizando recursos y plataformas multimedia como Moodle y Youtube. Las actividades incluyeron lecciones virtuales, trabajos en grupo y cuestionarios minimalistas. Al final del semestre se aplicó una encuesta de percepción del estudiante. El logro alcanzado en pre clase fue 40,45 %, 55,46 %, 43,75 % y 76,04 % para las sesiones 01 a 04, respectivamente. Las calificaciones de los trabajos en grupos de la encuesta el 63,2 % y 76,3 % de los estudiantes manifestó estar "muy de acuerdo" con que AI potencia el trabajo autónomo y colaborativo, respectivamente. El 73,6 % prefiere el modelo AI por sobre el Tradicional. El modelo AI ha mostrado promover una mejor evolución del proceso de enseñanza- aprendizaje, siendo adaptable a disciplinas de ciencias básicas como el caso de Anatomía humana. La buena experiencia de esta innovación se debe sustentar en una programación bien estructurada, apoyo dentro y fuera del aula, y el ajuste de estrategias exitosas. Es inminente la necesidad de adaptarse al nuevo contexto donde prima el acceso a las tecnologías e información.

SUMMARY: The current context involves a generally increasing access of technologies and information, which has a strong impact on the classroom. Students are passive and reluctant to the traditional teaching model. Thus, innovations take center stage, such is the case of the Flipped Classroom (FC) model. The aim of this paper is to describe the application of FC in the teaching of human anatomy in a university environment. Four sessions of the General Anatomy program were intervened with a group of 41 students. The content was approached in 3 stages: pre-class, class and post-class, using multimedia resources and platforms such as Moodle and YouTube. The activities included virtual lessons, group work and minimalist quizzes. At the end of the semester a student perception survey was applied. Achievement percentage in pre-class were 40.45 %, 55.46 %, 43.75 % and 76.04 % for sessions 01 to 04. The grades for class group work were 5.8±0.34, 6.1±0.46, 6.0±0.78 and 6.7±0.38 for the sessions worked. In the survey 63.2 % and 76.3 % of the students stated that they "very satisfied" that FC enhances autonomous and collaborative work, respectively. 73.6 % preferred the FC model over the traditional one. The FC model has shown to promote a better evolution of the teaching-learning process, being adaptable to basic science disciplines such as human anatomy. A positive experience of this innovation must be supported by well-structured programming, support inside and outside the classroom, and the adjustment of successful strategies. There is an imminent need to adapt to the new context where access to technologies and information is a priority.

“Flipped Classroom” teaching-learning method in medical biochemistry 1st professional MBBS students

Background: The flipped classroom is an educational model in which the standard lecture and homework elements of a course are “reversed” or “flipped.” In the current scenario, the new teaching-learning (T-L) method like flipped classroom is an essential requirement due to shifting in medical education from teacher-centric to student-centric as a consequence of the recent changes in medical education called “Competency-Based Medical Education.” The advantage of this teaching-learning method is to motivate students for self-directed learning and provides an opportunity for students to read/view course-related material at their own pace and on their own time before the actual class. Change in T-L method in medical biochemistry is extremely important since 1st Professional MBBS students considered it as tiresome and boring subject and give it least priority in all the subjects of 1st Professional MBBS course. Aim and Objectives: The main objective of this study is to introduce “Flipped Classroom” as an innovative teaching-learning method in medical biochemistry. Materials and Methods: For this study, 76 students were in-rolled and randomly divided them into two equal groups. Two topics from the medical biochemistry were selected, each group given an equal chance to learn by each method, at the end of teaching-learning the MCQ test was conducted and feedback from the student was collected. Results: In topics, the group learned the topic by flipped classroom scored more marks than the other group. The mean score of students, after the didactic lecture and flipped-classroom irrespective of the topic, were 4.43 and 5.39 marks, respectively (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The flipped-classroom method was found useful to improve the score of the 1st Professional MBBS students in medical biochemistry subject and facilitate them to understand the topic more clearly than the didactic lecture.

Evaluation on the application effect of "flipped classroom" in general surgery practice teaching / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective:To explore the application and practice of "flipped classroom" in the teaching of general surgery interns.Methods:A total of 20 internship groups (3 to 5 people in each group) were randomly selected from the general surgery practice group in the Department of General Surgery of the Second Clinical Medical College of North Sichuan Medical College. They were randomly divided into the flipped group (45 people) and the traditional group (40 people), with 10 subgroups in each group. The flipped group adopted the flipped classroom teaching mode (students' self-study by handing out materials before class, students and teachers' discussion in class, and students and teachers' evaluation after class), while the control group adopted the current conventional teaching mode (students' preview before class, teachers' explanation in class, and teachers' question answering after class). At the end of the teaching, a questionnaire was used to evaluate the participation and completion of each student. The teaching effect was evaluated by medical history collection and case analysis. The participation, completion, and teaching effect between the two groups were compared and analyzed. SPSS 23.0 software was used for t-test and Chi-square test. Results:The participation of the flipped group was better than that of the traditional group [(17.45±1.83) vs. (15.57±1.52)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the flipped group and the traditional group. There was no significant difference in medical history collection scores between the two groups. The case analysis of the flipped group was better than that of the traditional group [(87.30±6.06) vs. (81.50±5.88), P < 0.05]. The questionnaire shows that about 90% of the students think that flipped classroom can improve their interest in learning [96% (43/45)], improve their autonomous learning ability [89% (40/45)], and have better learning effect. At the same time, 78% (35/45) of students think that learning time is too long. Conclusion:The flipped classroom teaching model can improve the teaching participation of general surgery students, improve students' interest in learning, improve their self-learning ability, and improve students' thinking ability of medical record analysis.

Objective:To investigate the effect of flipped classroom teaching based on effective teaching theory in the clinical teaching of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery.Methods:A total of 35 nursing students who received clinical teaching in Department of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University Medical College, from June 2019 to June 2020 were selected as control group, and 35 nursing students who received clinical teaching from July 2020 to July 2021 were selected as study group. The students in the control group received traditional teaching, and those in the observation group received flipped classroom teaching based on effective teaching theory. The two groups were compared in terms of the scores of theoretical knowledge and practical operation after teaching, abilities of self-learning, analysis and problem-solving, innovative thinking, teamwork, and nurse-patient communication before and after treatment, and the degree of satisfaction with teaching among nursing students. SPSS 24.0 was used to perform the t-test and the chi-square test. Results:After teaching, the study group had significantly higher scores of theoretical knowledge and practical operation than the control group (94.24±3.25/94.65±3.41 vs. 89.54±3.36/88.76±3.37, P < 0.05). After teaching, both groups had significant increases in the scores of self-study ability, analysis and problem-solving ability, innovative thinking ability, teamwork ability, and nurse-patient communication ability, and the study group had significantly higher scores of these abilities than the control group ( P < 0.05). The study group had a significantly higher satisfaction rate of teaching than the control group [94.29% (33/35) vs. 71.43% (25/35)]. Conclusion:In the clinical teaching of nursing students in otolaryngology and head and neck surgery, the application of flipped classroom teaching based on effective teaching theory can improve the understanding of theoretical knowledge and practical operation ability, with significant increases in comprehensive ability and degree of satisfaction with teaching, and therefore, it has a good application value.
