Abstract

Teaching students how to "learn to learn" is a challenge for institutions that intend to train autonomous and capable of making decisions. These are aspects essential for health professionals, who are permanently faced with complex situations and new problems to be solved that go far beyond the that can be found in books. In addition, it should also be part of the any good professional to update and study how techniques developed in your area after your training. Studies that address metacognition seem topoint out as an effective strategy to make students abandon bad traditional teaching habits and take an active role in their studies, since this is related to academic success. The aim of this work is to manufacture an atlas referring to the canine circulatory system, which contemplates techniques metacognitive (such as monitoring and memorization), and that helps students to become self-regulators of their learning, all in a didactic way, including elements games to attract their attention and interest, in addition to providing pleasure in the learn.
