Scientific production of an online monitoring in neurology and neuroemergency as the construction of knowledge in academic training: experience report

Abstract

Introduction: Monitoring comprises a contribution tool in the teachinglearning process. It is an instrument that helps in the understanding, production and improvement of university knowledge, in addition to stimulating scientific initiation and university extension. The present work brings an innovative proposal of the modality, in which medical specialists guide students in the production of materials on themes in the area with virtual later dissemination, allowing an interaction of students from different regions. Objectives: Report on the experience of virtual monitoring during the COVID-19 pandemic and to evaluate the effectiveness of active methodologies for the digital use of resources. Experience report: The monitoring consisted of weekly online meetings, for three months, with clinical cases related to eight themes that were distributed and rotated among the monitors for the production of digital materials containing sub-themes within major touches, which is available for free on the networks monitoring. The following topics were discussed with: headache, ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, seizures, vertigo, lowering of the sensory, neuroinfections and traumatic brain injury. Reflections on the experience: The active production process, as it is an effective learning method, reinforces the monitors’ knowledge on the themes and consolidates important skills. Conclusion: Online monitoring, in addition to being an alternative to the traditional face-to-face model, contributed to medical training in teaching, research and extension and in the development of other qualities, such as: interpersonal relationships, didactic language, encouraging teaching and improving the search and filtering data from the scientific literature.
