Abstract
FERREIRA, António et al. Effectiveness of synchronous non-class education in higher health education. RIIS [online]. 2023, vol.6, n.2, pp.9-20. Epub Dec 31, 2023. ISSN 2184-1578. https://doi.org/10.37914/riis.v6i2.257.
Background:
the SARS-COV2 pandemic has conditioned the functioning of Higher Education Institutions, leading to the adoption of measures to ensure the teaching process, until then face-to-face, towards a synchronous non-face-to-face teaching typology.
Objective:
to evaluate the effectiveness of synchronous remote teaching in higher health education in response to the pandemic, from the student's perspective, and their satisfaction.
Methodology:
mixed, descriptive and exploratory study, with data collection through an online questionnaire. The target population are students who transitioned to synchronous non-face-to-face teaching. Statistical analysis using the SPSS® program, version 27.0 and content analysis according to Bardin (2016). Ethical requirements met.
Results:
48 students participated who showed a lower average level of satisfaction with synchronous remote teaching compared to face-to-face teaching, a highly significant relationship (t=3.09; p=0.003). Teacher-student and student-student interaction is considered of lower quality, however, it is considered that synchronous remote teaching demonstrates effectiveness in maintaining students' training paths.
Conclusion:
the technological conditions for access to synchronous remote teaching were considered adequate, as well as the degree of effectiveness, although with lower levels of satisfaction compared to face-to-face teaching.
