Curriculum, COVID-19, Medical EducationAbstract
The Covid-19 pandemic has significantly impacted medical education, especially the parallel curriculum, which encompasses several extracurricular activities, such as academic leagues, internships, extension projects, undergraduate research projects, teaching assistance, and elective courses. This study aims at analyzing the result of the Covid-19 pandemic on the parallel curriculum from the perspective of medical students. This is an exploratory-descriptive, cross-sectional study, using an online questionnaire via Google Forms® with Likert-type scale questions. The sample consisted of 340 Medicine students, from the 4th to the 12th terms, from Curitiba, Paraná. The online modality facilitated the submission of scientific papers, as well as the accessibility to medical events, which had the highest adherence among the evaluated
activities. Participation in scientific research stands out, especially for students in the basic/ clinical cycle. Therefore, most participants agree that there are adaptations to be maintained in the post-pandemic period.
