The subject Information Systems and Data Analysis is a basic subject of the academic fields. The curricular Decree for bachelor of the Basque Autonomous Community is the starting point. Therefore, previously, students must have the following knowledge:

- Use of new technologies (operating systems, extension of files, email managers, management of files in the cloud, etc.)

- Use of word processors (formats and styles of the document, header and footer, indexes, etc)

- Use of spreadsheets (organization by cells, rows and columns, functions and basic operations, creation and modification of graphics, etc.).

- Basic mathematical concepts (basic operations, absolute values, relative, natural numbers, integers, rational, irrational, etc.).

- Creation of a technical text (Using reliable information sources and their corresponding bibliographic references).



As the expert Miguel Angel Zabalza indicates, evidence-based science is basic in the development of the academic curriculum, since it is transversal and must be systematized. The first steps in order to achieve it will be taken in this subject.



Throughout the semester students will work on the methodological basis of qualitative and quantitative research, information searches, the use of bibliographic references, the organization of information systems in the field of health sciences, the synthesis of information, data organization and its presentation, basic concepts of demography and biostatistics, care based on scientific evidence and critical reading.

E.1.- To Develop a process of search, selection, recovery, management and use of the literature generated from a research question, demonstrating skill in the management of databases and basic information of the social health field.

E.2.- To analyze the data used for scientific production in the health sciences by interpreting its adequacy and meaning.

E.3.- To perform a critical reading of research articles in Health Sciences, analyzing the methodological quality and the adequacy and interpretation of the statistics in order to assess the quality of the scientific literature.

Unit 1.- INTRODUCTION TO THE INVESTIGATION

1.1.- Types of research. Introduction to quantitative and qualitative research. Professional secrecy and Data Protection Law.

1.2.- Information systems in the field of health. CMBD. EDO.

1.3.- Search for information. Data sources in the field of health.

1.4.- Search and bibliographic management: scientific databases and bibliographic management programs.

1.5.- Use of bibliographical references. Vancouver Standards; APA; Harvard; ISO 690 and 690-2.



Unit 2.- DATA ANALYSIS

2.1. Descriptive statistics: variables, scales, measures of central tendency and measures of dispersion. Organization of the data and graphic representation.

2.2.- Frequency indicators of the disease.

2.3.- Distributions. Standardized normal curve. Proportions.

2.4.- Inferential statistics. Sampling techniques Law on equality between women and men and sampling. Inference techniques.

2.5.- Statistical tests of contrast.



Unit 3- SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE

3.1.- Introduction to care based on scientific evidence.

3.2.- Critical reading of a clinical trial.

3.3.- Critical reading of a systematic review

Active methodologies and the flipped classromm model (inverted class) will be used, that is, the students will be responsible for their own learning process, working on all the skills through exercises and activities. For this, students must see and prepare the theoretical-practical content at home, to work on the practical content in class and in the seminars.

* The students will analyze, understand, summarize and internalize the theoretical concepts.

* Outside of class hours, you will work on the theoretical concepts and the computer tools to be used for their application.

* In the master classes, visual maps will be made in groups using Visual Thinking.

* The seminars will be held in small groups in the computer room. In these seminars, students will work on bibliographic search and management, organization of information, statistical treatment of data and critical reading. In all the seminars, the first part will be guided by the teaching staff and the second part the students will have to carry out the exercises arranged autonomously.

* Self-assessment: students will self-assess all their exercises, to be aware of their achievements in the learning process.

* Documentation will be made available to students on the eGela digital platform for monitoring the theoretical-practical part of the subject, such as the exercises carried out.

* Tutorials: to solve doubts, make recommendations to prepare the subject or help in the learning process.

• Continuous Assessment System
• Final Assessment System
• Tools and qualification percentages:
  • Multiple-Choice Test (%): 40
  • Realization of Practical Work (exercises, cases or problems) (%): 60

In accordance with the Protocol on academic ethics and prevention of dishonest or fraudulent practices in the evaluation tests and in the academic work of the UPV / EHU, the subject's lecturers on the first day of class, in the presentation of the student's guide, will specify as clearly as possible the materials, resources and technological resources, or otherwise, whose use is allowed in the development of the evaluation tests of the subject.



Assessment will be continuous. In order to pass this subject, it is necessary to pass all the competences. The mark will be the weighted average mark obtained in the three competences of the subject. If a competency is not passed, the grade will be given for the failed competency. If two or all three competences are not passed, the weighted average mark for the failed competences will be awarded.

The mark for each competency is summative and weighted for each exercise. In order for the marks obtained in any exercise to be added together, at least 30% of the maximum mark for that exercise must be obtained. The value assigned to each competency is as follows:

FINAL EVALUATION SYSTEM:

Students will have the right to be evaluated through the final evaluation system. To this end, students must submit a written opt-out to the course teaching staff. The deadline for submitting this request is November 10th.

Through this final test it will be verified that the student has overcome the knowledge and competences of the subject. This final test will consist of 3 exercises to evaluate the competencies E1, E2, E3.

E1: To complete a questionnaire on the use of bibliographic and data sources and carry out a bibliographic search in the most important databases of the health system, managing this information with computer tools and using bibliographic references in a text + questionnaire. Value in the mark: 30%.



E2: To perform a search of quantitative data in health science data sources. Use data for the calculation of basic statistics and prepare a graph of them. With a given data series, differentiate the variables, identify the hypotheses, choose the appropriate statistical tests of contrast, obtain the results of them and interpret them + questionnaire. Value in the mark: 40%.



E3. To complete a questionnaire about care based on scientific evidence and perform a critical reading of an article + questionnaire. Value in the mark: 30%.

If a competence is not passed, the qualification of the competence will be suspended. If two or all three competences are not passed, the average mark of suspended competences will be set.



RESIGNATION TO THE ORDINARY EVALUATION CALL:
