Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has been a challenge for education systems. Educational institutions have had to adapt to the new correlations between teaching and learning. The aim of this study was to understand the perception of higher education students regarding the use of active methodologies in the remote study of Human Physiology. This is a cross-sectional descriptive study with a mixed methods approach. 35 responses were obtained and 25 of the students considered the use of active methodologies in the teaching of Human Physiology to be positive. In recent decades, teaching in the health area has been debated, and the curriculum of active methodologies has stood out, as it seeks training with a broad view of man, forming an ethical, critical, reflective, humanized subject capable of transforming his surroundings. The use of active methodologies during the remote teaching period led to a greater gain in knowledge of human physiology.
