description | <strong>Background:</strong> Scientific publications within Medical Sciences are an important factor for professionals to achieve services of excellence. However, the training to write this kind of articles is not enough. <strong><br />Objective:</strong> To design a theoretical and practical course of composition and style for scientific articles publications. <br /><strong>Methods:</strong> Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study including 50 professionals of the Medical School Branch. The main difficulties that they face to publish an article were determined and a distance learning course was designed on this basis, using the Moodle platform. <strong><br />Results:</strong> All the surveyed individuals referred that among the main causes limiting their ability to publish scientific articles are: little practical knowledge about the requirements to write scientific articles, not receiving any subject enhancing textual composition during their academic formation, and not attending to any post-graduate course aimed at improving academic writing for publication. A curse of 10 hours (theoretical part) and 30 hours (practical part) divide into five chapters including stylistic, methodological and compositional elements. <strong><br />Conclusions:</strong> This course helps improving the composition of scientific articles written by professional and their further publication in scientific journals. |
