Estructuras tisulares: nueva forma de presentación de los contenidos prácticos de la Histología

Resumen

A new didactic method for the apprenticeship of histological images is presented. A goal in a cours of Histology is to learn how to identify histological images. Classically this apprenticeship has been carried out by means of the usual practical teaching with the microscope, based on the repetitive observation of slides, which is a high time-consuming process. The method is based on two points: a) Sistema tization of the apprenticeship contents, b) Correct use of the didactic strategies. Regarding the first item, and related to the concept of «tisular structure», the tissue classification is discused. About the second point, we comment on our experience in the use of two different didactic strategies: Small-gruop teaching and self -learning. Key words: Histology, practical teaching, apprenticeship sistematization, didactic innovation.
