Abstract

Background: biochemistry is an experimental science, so Clinical Biochemistry is very appropriate for the creation of experimental work skills in the Medicine career.
Objective: design practical activities for the Proteins module, in order to contribute to the acquisition of experimental skills in the training of specialists from Clinical Biochemistry.
Methods: a qualitative cross-sectional observational research was carried out at the Faculty of Medicine during 2019. The theoretical methods used were analytical-synthetic and inductive-deductive; and empirical ones: documentary analysis; In addition, reverse design methods for planning practical activities, and inquiry learning in the development of seminars and practical activities.
Results: the activities were designed, taking into account the teaching units, experimental skills to be created and the practical laboratory activities. Specific tasks were provided to develop critical thinking, problem solving, and evaluating complex situations. For its correct application, guides were prepared and the bibliography was oriented, which facilitated independent work.
Conclusions: the practical activities designed for the Proteins module contributed to the Clinical Biochemistry residents acquiring the skills of experimental work, essential to achieve professional competence in teaching, research and medical care.
