A teaching strategy for education in health in Brazil: dialogic problematizing inquiry

This paper presents a teaching strategy for education of health professionals called “Dialogic Problematizing Inquiry” (DPI), which was evaluated in the course “Teaching Methodology in Health Education”, promoted by the Development of Higher Education in Health Center, at Federal University of Sao Paulo. It was designed in the framework of a bilateral project between Brazil and Argentina, and was developed in presencial and virtual format. The implementation of DPI generated a communication dynamic that was coherent with a constructivist perspective and enabled a change in teacher and students communication manners, which were guided by close-to-student-problematizing situations. The implementation of this teaching innovation was consistent with the curriculum changes stemming from current health policies in Brazil.
