Abstract

CASTRO, Filipa De et al. Massive online course “Sexual and reproductive health”: changes in knowledge, desertion, disapproval and satisfaction. Salud pública Méx [online]. 2020, vol.62, n.5, pp.559-568.  Epub June 06, 2022. ISSN 0036-3634.  https://doi.org/10.21149/11183.

Objective:

To present global results of the dropout and failure and satisfaction of the Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) users, as well as changes in knowledge and practices of personnel registered in “Sexual and Reproductive Health and Prevention of adolescent pregnancy”.

Materials and methods:

Using 45 549 records, we adjust logistic regression models to find associations between variables of dropout and failure.

Results:

57.8% of people completed the course and 15.1% failure. Logistic models show that age and position are associated with both dropout and failure.

Conclusions:

The MOOC is useful to improve knowledge and skills of health personnel. It is necessary to expand the coverage to professionals who deal with adolescent population, in order to improve sexual and reproductive health and prevent teenage pregnancies.

Keywords : adolescents; sexual and reproductive health; education, distance.
