Theoretical approaches on the cooperative learning for education in health in the university context

Abstract

An exhaustive literature review was carried out with the objective of analyzing some theoretical conceptions that reveal the potentialities of the cooperative learning, as method for the education in health, in the process of university training. That is the reason why a documental study, with plans and study programs, scientific articles and doctoral thesis was carried out; also, some students, professors and university investigators were interviewed and the behaviors and performance ways were observed in this respect. The developed study allowed to verify that there are theoretical deficiencies on the knowledge of this learning.
