Abstract
PARRA ACOSTA, Haydeé et al. The LKT and the humanist education of the doctor. Investigación educ. médica [online]. 2019, vol.8, n.31, pp.72-81. Epub Dec 01, 2019. ISSN 2007-5057. https://doi.org/10.22201/facmed.20075057e.2019.31.18128.
Introduction
With advances in technology and the Internet of all things, are generates new perspectives in the training of doctors. For this reason is important of using the Learning & Knowledge Technologies (LKT) that corresponds to Information and Communication Technologies oriented to pedagogical processes to favor humanistic training.
Objective
The objective is to show the relationship that exists between the application of Learning & Knowledge Technologies (LKT) with the humanistic training of the physician by competencies.
Method
Cross-sectional non-experimental study, which was carried out through the application of an instrument like a questionnaire type to 152 students and 35 medical teachers to know their perception of humanistic training through the LKT. The questionnaire integrated 63 items that were answered using a centesimal scale. It was validated through a pilot group obtaining an alpha of Cronbach of 0.92.
Results
The descriptive results showed that there is a tendency to consider that the application of TACs in medical training contributes more to their integral development (87.60), to academic performance (83.8) and to the development of competences (80.80) than to humanistic training (58.9). However, a significant relationship was observed between medical education through the LKT and the humanistic training of the doctor (r 0.82). This indicates that the perception of teachers and students is not only different from correlational results, but also predisposes the training of physicians according to the challenges of the current socio-educational context.
