COMPARAÇÃO DA ASSIMILAÇÃO DE CONTEUDO ACADÊMICO NA MEDICINA VETERINÁRIA ENTRE PERIODOS MATUTINO E NOTURNO

Abstract

There are currently several methodological developments in teaching. Thus, the Veterinary Medicine courses must adapt to the curricular formation, both for the academic scope and for professional preparation, seeking new possibilities of teaching-learning centered on the student, even when comparing the productivity between the morning and night shifts. With this purpose, a questionnaire was developed, answered voluntarily by students of the Veterinary Medicine course, seeking to analyze the importance and difficulties faced by them in the discipline of Animal Reproduction Biotechnology between the morning and night periods. The questionnaire was based on the transversal descriptive observational method, for data collection an online tool from Google Forms was used, enabling the analysis of individual limitations, potentials, experiences and expectations about academic knowledge among students. Concomitantly, the questionnaire assessed the socioeconomic and cultural reality of the students. Based on the results, it was possible to conclude that students from the night period, due to the performance of other activities during the day and factors related to their routine, present greater stress and fatigue. Such factors directly influence the physical, psychological and emotional wear of students at night. Therefore, night shift students of Veterinary Medicine, in the Animal Reproduction Biotechnology discipline, have greater difficulties in assimilating the content when compared to morning students.
