Programa Institucional de Tutoría Integral: nuevas estrategias de acompañamiento en la Licenciatura de Médico Cirujano

Abstract

The Tutoring programs in higher education have gained relevance as an educational strategy, oriented to the integral attention of students during their academic career, with the purpose of guiding them to achieve their academic and personal goals. In the case of the Faculty of Medicine, since the update of its Institutional Program of Integral Tutoring FM in 2018, it has sought to contribute to the integral training of students through four actions that implement the program: adaptation, study, academic performance and self-care. These axes have been worked through the modality of traditional academic tutoring, and through the implementation of two new modalities: peer tutoring (given by a student of more advanced years) and group tutoring (given by a teacher to a group). Both modalities are aimed at the population of first and second year as pedagogical strategies of accompaniment in their integral formation.
