Micropolitics of health management and work in a Distance Education course for Primary Health Care managers

ABSTRACT

This article aims to present the elaboration of the Improvement Course in Management of Basic Health Units, Clinical and Care Management, in the Distance Learning (EaD) modality. For this, the experience report was used as a method. The course was prepared by professors from the Fluminense Federal University (UFF) based on a request from the Ministry of Health, between 2016 and 2019, and adopted as a basis, in the Political-Pedagogical Proposal (PPP), the micropolitics of work. To achieve the PPP, some tools were created or incorporated, teaching material was prepared by the teachers themselves, strategies for the formation of tutors were built, as well as some concepts related to the development of autonomy for life in the construction of the tutor-student relationship. It was concluded that students built activities and graduation works that made explicit micropolitical activities in the work process. Furthermore, it was possible to highlight that the fact that the coordinating members actively participated in the whole process of the course, in addition to allowing permanent education for each one, favored the construction and strengthening of the course’s institutional identity, enhanced the actions and pedagogical interventions to support tutors and facilitated changes from evaluations and reassessments.
