Using video documentaries and PBL to teach medical subjects: Active methodologies, a new way of educating and reflecting on the teaching/learning process

From a neuroscience perspective, the learning process involves modifying the brain in response to environmental stimuli, activating synapses and creating new neural networks. Based on this assumption, the aim of this work was to create an audiovisual associated with the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) method to be used as a paradidactic resource dedicated to teaching the functional neuroanatomy of the cerebellum. As well as exploring the history of the audiovisual universe and its application in the educational field, this project proposed a trip to the municipality of Vigia de Nazaré, in the northeast of the state of Pará, to produce images that would traditionally be absent from classrooms.
