Abstract
Information technology can be a powerful tool for learning, and the video construction model represents an effective educational strategy for disseminating and sharing information for all areas of knowledge. Certainly, physiology teaching should align itself with these strategies and use the digital environment as a channel for applying and disseminating knowledge. Thus, this work is a model that proposes to interrelate teaching, research, and scientific divulgation in the field of physiology through the production of audiovisual resources available in the digital environment. For this work, a team of professors, technicians, and undergraduate and graduate students planned, prepared, and released two videos: one exploring how the physiology of the sensory system facilitates the remarkable ability to read braille and another detailing the appropriate methods for measuring blood pressure. To make these videos, scenes from practical classes were filmed in physiology teaching laboratories, and the scenes of animal experimentation techniques were filmed in research laboratories. The quality of the resources produced was assessed through 173 satisfaction questionnaires that resulted in high levels of acceptance among university students from seven different health courses. The metrics viewed from the social platforms/networks were in line with the findings obtained through the questionnaires. The reports of the undergraduate and graduate students involved in the productions confirmed the model's potential to optimize the relationship between teaching, research and extension. Therefore, this work represented a positive experience in the use of information technologies in the application and dissemination of academic and scientific knowledge in physiology.
