The Faculty of Medicine is progressing with the return of presence in hybrid classes

The medical school has begun the process of returning to good attendance through its hybrid learning spaces. They allow the physical presence of small groups to be combined with the remote presence of the rest of the subjects simultaneously.

On Friday, August 13 of this year, the first examination was carried out with the development of the subject “Surgical Kinesiology, Para-pathological Pathology”, corresponding to the third year of the Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology and Physical Medicine.

Laws have also reported sticking to other topics that will be added to this method in the coming weeks.

It is important to note that the Faculty of Medicine is working on technological adaptation of at least 4 semesters that allow this development, both at the Moreno headquarters and at the Sargento Cabral headquarters. In addition to embarking on intensive training operations for teachers in the coming weeks to update the skills that will allow them to meet this technical-educational challenge, which we will live with this year and next, according to the expected views.
