Flipped Classroom: Description of a multisectoral learning experience in health

Abstract

Presentations are usually offered at academic events, which attract the attention of participants, but fundamental messages are quickly forgotten. In this sense, the strategy based on the pedagogical principles of the flipped classroom or Coworking allows participants, in multidisciplinary teams, to solve problems by learning and consolidating their knowledge and other areas, while they are accompanied and moderated by experts. In this work, the experience of a flipped classroom in the “IV Workshop de Investigación en Salud” has been described. The workshop was part of the “I Congreso Internacional de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación, al Servicio del Desarrollo Territorial 2019” held on December 2-4 Organized by Centro de Servicios de Salud, SENA, Regional Antioquia in Medellín, Colombia. Flipped classroom activity was setup to resolve, in multidisciplinary teams, four problems related to diseases of interest in the Colombian context: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diabetes mellitus, breast cancer and adult alone or in a vulnerable state. The impact and reaction of the participants and the teams formed was highlighted, as well as the desire to overcome, empowerment and resistance despite their own barriers and those established by the moderators as the activity progressed. Finally, the moderators have followed the profiles of the participants, identifying their strengths and weaknesses, this has been an important source of information for decision making.
