Adaptation of the teaching of microbiology in the degree of podology, including practical teaching
Abstract
With the adaptation to the EHEA (European Higher Education Area ), Microbiology has begun to be taught within the field of Biopathology, introducing as a teaching activity the practical credits of Microbiology in order to improve the skills that students should acquire as part of their integral training. The results of the evaluation of 34 students of the 2011-2012 academic year were compared, analyzing the results between the question of theoretical-practical integration (TP) and the one that had only been explained in the theoretical class (T). Significant differences were found ( p <0.001) between the average score of the students who had passed the course and those who had not passed it for the T test, while these means were not statistically significant for the TP test. We can conclude that the learning evaluated in the question TP has been satisfactory in both groups, even students who have not passed the course have achieved good results in this test.
