Trabalho, Educação e Saúde - TES (Work, Education and Health) is an open access scientific journal, edited by the Joaquim Venâncio Polytechnic School of Health, from Oswaldo Cruz Foundation.
This article aims to review the scientific literature on the use of active learning methodologies in health education. This is a review of the literature using the Virtual Health Library database to select the articles. The survey took place from September to November 2012. Fifteen full articles were selected in the search. The results showed that using active methodologies motivates students and directs them to seek information to solve impasses and further their own development, making them realize that new learning is a necessary, significant tool to enhance their possibilities and paths. These methodologies have also contributed to changes in the health professionals’ way of thinking and acting, who started to interact in a plural space of interests, potentials, and capabilities.
