Abstract
PEREIRA, Giovanna Barcelos Fontenele; AARAO, Tinara Leila de Souza and FURLANETO, Ismari Perini. Medical students’ perception about the self-management skills acquired during remote learning. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2022, vol.46, n.4, e136. Epub Oct 24, 2022. ISSN 1981-5271. https://doi.org/10.1590/1981-5271v46.4-20220052.
Introduction:
The Covid-19 pandemic presented several challenges to Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in all countries. In this context, there is a prominent need to restructure the teaching-learning process in order to guarantee genuine knowledge acquisition, as well as the development of study methods to enable students to deal with the emergency remote teaching (ERT) and its setbacks.
Objective:
To investigate directed study was implemented and how students viewed the gains in self-management skills during ERT.
Method:
Quantitative and qualitative cross-sectional study, conducted with 93 medical students from different Brazilian HEIs. A semi-structured questionnaire was used for data collection. The data were processed using the IRAMUTEQ software, similarity analysis and word cloud, in addition to the use of descriptive statistics.
Results:
In relation to the time dedicated to directed study, 59.1% of the students reported having established it and 57.0% said they had outlined strategies to better manage this time; 68.8% reported having perceived differences when comparing the learning consolidation methods used before and during ERT and, of these, 70.3% considered that these new techniques were efficient. In the qualitative analysis, six monothematic corpora were analysed, relating to opinions on what helped and what hindered emotional and time management, which learning consolidation strategies were used and which self-management skills were developed during ERT.
Conclusion:
It was demonstrated that the difficulties encountered were overcome through the adoption of strategies to help students develop self-management skills in relation to time, emotions and learning consolidation. It can therefore be inferred that students successfully mastered some of the essential skills to overcome new and recent challenges imposed by changes in the world, such as their personal organization, studies and time, in addition to those related to emotions and management of technological resources.
