EDUCATIONAL MODELS: A CHALLENGE FOR HEALTH EDUCATION

Abstract

The actual society is undergoing major changes in all its fields; the globalization and liberation of the economy, competitiveness but also international collaboration in capital, goods and services, has led to the need to modify the traditionalist model towards a modern model, where the teacher has to make a synthesis of different theories and new pedagogical approaches that guide the construction of quality study programs that allow to improve the teaching- learning process. Regarding the educational model for the development of human resources in health, it should consider the scientific, technological and humanistic competences, instilling a strong social commitment, whose paradigm is the formation of professionals prepared for the social demand in an integral, competent way, with scientific preparation to accept the challenges of modern society and with a humanistic broad development to live in the society of this time and to serve it with simplicity and modesty, with values as a fundamental pillar of its development.
