Abstract

The disciplinary principles of information design can expand the possibilities of the educational experience in medical teaching. This article shows evidence of a research project in which three different areas intervene: Medicine, Education, and Design; the project is focused and harnessed through the intervention of ideas and practices that prevail in information design, with the use of center-user methods such as the Delphi technique, it was possible to approach the creation of an original instructional model that serves as a guide for medical teachers to design digital materials with the purpose of fostering clinical reasoning in undergraduate students. The intervention of information design that acts as a guiding axis in decision-making and as an integrating force of the conceptual and creative processes, is capable of coordinating and integrating the different perspectives of these three areas of knowledge.
