Objective: This research aims to analyze the knowledge, application and assessment about the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) of Web 2.0 in education. The Web 2.0 consider the use of applications and websites willing to use the collective intelligence through social software to facilitate the learning processes. Materials and method: An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted in a simple random pro-bability sample of 173 students and 109 undergraduate and graduate respectively and 54 teachers. The questionnaire was validated by expert judgment obtaining a coefficient Aiken V equal to 1, and Cronbach alpha reliability of 0.75. Results: The results showed that the three groups recognized communication tools as a mechanism to share information, improve teacher relationship and develop collaborative work with percentages above 80 %. The assessment of the...

Objective: To determine the influence of motivation and the use of learning strategies in the level of investigative skills in postgraduate students of dentistry of the National University of San Marcos. Materials and method: Fifty-two students were surveyed representing 50% of the total, which belong to the programs of masters and specialties. 58.8% of the students were males and 41.2% of the females were randomly selected. The questionnaire of learning strategies and motivation CEAM and a questionnaire were used to evaluate the investigative skills which was previously validated. Results: We found an association between motivation, learning strategies and students' investigative abilities OR=0.14 (IC 95%: 0.04-0.6) and a moderate correlation between rs = 0.64 (p <0.001). Conclusions: Postgraduate students in dentistry have a level of investigative skills, motivation and use of mid-l...

Objetivo: Se tuvo como objetivo analizar el conocimiento, aplicación y apreciación sobre las tecnologías de la información y comunicación (TIC) de la web 2.0 en el ámbito educativo. Estas consideran el uso de aplicaciones y páginas web dispuestas a utilizar la inteligencia colectiva a través del software social con el fin de facilitar los procesos de aprendizaje. Materiales y método: Se desarrolló un estudio observacional, descriptivo, transversal en una muestra probabilística aleatoria simple de 173 y 109 estudiantes de pregrado y posgrado respectivamente, así como 54 docentes. El cuestionario fue validado por juicio de experto obteniendo un coeficiente V de Aiken igual a 1 y una confiabilidad Alfa de Conbrach de 0.75. Resultados: Los tres grupos estudiados reconocieron a las herramientas de comunicación como un mecanismo de compartir información, mejorar el vínculo docen...

Objetivo: Determinar la influencia de la motivación y el uso de estrategias de aprendizaje en el nivel de habilidades investigativas en estudiantes de posgrado de Odontología de la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos. Materiales y método: Se encuestaron 52 estudiantes que representan el 43,3% del total, pertenecientes a los programas de maestría y especialidades. El 58,8% de estudiantes eran del sexo masculino y el 41,2% del sexo femenino los cuales fueron seleccionados en forma aleatoria. Se utilizó el cuestionario de estrategias de aprendizaje y motivación CEAM y un cuestionario para evaluar las habilidades investigativas el cual fue previamente validado. Resultados: Se encontró asociación entre la motivación, estrategias de aprendizaje y habilidades investigativas de los estudiantes OR=0,14 (IC 95%: 0,04-0,6) y correlación moderada rs = 0,64 (p<0,001). Conclusiones: ...

The purpose of this study was to determine the level of knowledge on prevention in oral health in pregnant women attending the Obstetrics and Gynecology Service of the Hipolito Unanue Nacional Hospital and San Jose Hospital-2011. We performed a prospective descriptive study, and Cross, in 249 pregnant women attending the Obstetrics and Gynecology Service of the Hipolito Unanue Hospital and 158 patients who came to San Jose Hospital (2011). A questionnaire was administered to measure the level of knowledge about preventive oral health, oral disease and the relationship between dental care and pregnancy. 84 % of all pregnant women surveyed reported no dental care. Only 14 % have knowledge about oral hygiene items, and less than 50 % have knowledge about nutrition during pregnancy and its effect on the child’s teeth. 64 % have a good level of knowledge about preventive measures, however, ...

One of the aims of a root-end filling material placed in an apicectomy treatment is to provide apical seal that can inhibits the coronary migration of antigens to perirradicular tissues. Many materials are used for this end; however, to date there has not been any material that satisfies all the requirements of an ideal material. With the purpose of making a comparative analysis of the apical sealing abilities of three root-end filling materials: silver amalgam, glass ionomer and MTA (mineral trioxide aggregate), in the leakage process of Enterococcus Faecalis bacteria and the time used for it to leak via coronary toward the perirradicular area, the present investigation was made. Leakage was proven when veering the fenol red glucose, in which the apexes of the sample teeth were submerged, to a temperature of 37ºC. The results showed that specimens that leakage in longer than 70 days we...
