L. Guzmanpizarro et G. Rodriguezroa, THE ROLE OF GROUP ADVISERS IN THE TRAININ G OF HUMAN-RESOURCES FOR PUBLIC-HEALTH, Salud publica de Mexico, 36(3), 1994, pp. 328-333
Within the educational system, the method of group tutor was developed
as a teaching strategy: the tutor goes along with a group of students
to field training and works with them on the systematization and anal
ysis of the study to obtain the final report. The purpose of this pape
r is to recuperate the work experience of the Department of Didactics
of the School of Public Health of Mexico during 1991. A relevant concl
usion is that this form of work needs to be studied and developed, sin
ce it demands a greater amount of independence from the students and r
equires a different participation from the teacher, both as coordinato
r and advisor.
