    Intellectual autonomy is essential in the complete education of Medical Sciences students, as it promotes critical and autonomous learning essential for clinical practice. It facilitates detailed understanding of scientific concepts, solving complicated problems and adapting to technological advances in medicine. Although innovative tactics are encouraged in advanced nations to enhance this skill, conventional education prevails in South America, impacting creativity and work performance. The relationship between teacher and student needs to be modified to focus learning on the student and encourage educational tactics that foster comprehensive skills, creativity, and excellence in teaching. This implies assessing the current degree of autonomy and proposing effective improvements. The objective of this work is to design a teaching strategy based on scientific evidence that allows developing cognitive independence in students who take the subject of Anatomy of the Medicine degree as results, students who develop cognitive independence develop personal skills that allow them to perform with excellence in the theoretical field and present a confident development in the analysis of clinical cases, whether in the university or hospital setting. It is concluded that these tactics They integrate conventional pedagogy with revolutionary education, adapting learning in real and simulated contexts. Its implementation promotes independent and cooperative work, positively affecting the teaching-learning process and excellence in the academic field.

    Estrategia didáctica para la aplicación de la inteligencia artificial en la enseñanza de las Ciencias Biomédicas Básicas
    (2025-04-01) Pombosa Manobanda, Luis Daniel; Villacis Valencia, Sandra Elizabeth; Universidad Técnica de Ambato / Facultad de Ciencias de Salud / Centro de Posgrados
    The present research was conducted at the Technical University of Ambato, in the Medicine program, with the aim of evaluating a didactic strategy based on AI in the Bacteriology and Virology course. The main objective was to develop a scientific dissemination didactic strategy based on ChatGPT to enhance the teaching-learning process in biomedical sciences. The specific objectives included: evaluating the frequency and perception of ChatGPT usage among students, analyzing its impact on academic performance, and assessing the effectiveness of the didactic strategy in fostering student autonomy and individual learning. It was hypothesized that the implementation of ChatGPT as a didactic tool would significantly improve academic performance and promote self-learning among students in the Bacteriology and Virology course. A quasi-experimental study with a quantitative approach was designed, applying a pretestposttest design without a control group. The population consisted of 78 fourth-semester medical students. Questionnaires were used to measure prior and post-intervention knowledge, as well as surveys to assess the perception and usage of AI. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test and Pearson correlations. The findings showed that students significantly improved their academic performance after implementing the AI-based didactic strategy. A total of 72% of participants perceived ChatGPT as a useful tool, highlighting its ability to generate summaries, explain complex concepts, and facilitate autonomous learning. The research confirms that ChatGPT can be an effective tool in medical education, enhancing the understanding of biomedical concepts and promoting self-learning. Its integration into other medical courses is recommended, as well as further exploration of its long-term impact on students' academic development.

    Estrategia didáctica para la enseñanza de ciencias básicas a estudiantes de pregrado con diversidad funcional del espectro autista
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Centro de Posgrados, 2022-12) Valle Ocando, Ana Karina Md.; Villacís Valencia, Sandra Dra. Esp.
    The Autistic Spectrum, currently considered an "invisible disability", persists as an underestimated, ignored condition plagued by stereotypes, a consequence of ignorance. Regarding the academic field, people on the Autistic Spectrum have a different way of learning than neurotypical people, considering peculiarities of both the condition and the person's own, but these educational needs are ignored, affecting the Teaching learning process. Indeed, there is very little information regarding the development and performance of autistic people in formal education, focusing mainly on the basic and middle levels, and leaving aside autistic students at higher or university levels. In Ecuador there are not even reliable statistical records of how many autistic people start, stay and finish higher education and especially Medical University or Medicine Career, a situation that prevents formulating educational policies and making the necessary adjustments for the academic success of this group of people. Given this scenario, in this qualitative study, an interview was conducted with two key participants to obtain information from a direct and reliable source on the problems that autistic people experienced and experience during their university studies, whose valuable contributions were taken as a reference for to be able to develop the final product that is the "Didactic Strategy for the teaching of Basic Biomedical Sciences to undergraduate students with functional diversity of the Autistic Spectrum"
