This study examines the pedagogical training process of medical professors at a Brazilian university, the meanings attributed to it, and the positive and negative aspects identified in it. This is a descriptive-exploratory study, using a qualitative approach with a questionnaire utilizing open-ended and closed questions and a semi-structured interview. The majority of queried individuals had no formal teacher training and learned to be teachers through a process of socialization that was in part intuitive or by modeling those considered to be good teachers; they received pedagogical training mainly in post-graduate courses. Positives aspects of this training were the possibility of refresher courses in pedagogical methods and increased knowledge in their educational area. Negative factors were a lack of practical activities and a dichotomy between theoretical content and practical teaching. The skills acquired through professional experience formed the basis for teaching competence and pointed to the need for continuing education projects at the institutional level, including these skills themselves as a source of professional knowledge.

Abstract Background Visitors of bird fairs and bird owners in general are at risk of becoming infected by Chlamydia psittaci bacterium. This bacterium is mainly found in birds and can be transmitted to humans. The knowledge about psittacosis is limited among the general public, bird owners and even among doctors. Awareness to health problems regarding psittacosis, is important. By increasing this awareness among bird owners we encourage them to report these health problems and bird contact to the general practitioner. Experience shows that it is difficult to reach this particular group. The aim of this study was to gain more insight in the characteristics of bird owners to develop methods for providing appropriate information. This information aims to increase awareness regarding psittacosis. Methods The research adopted a qualitative approach and in depth interviews were held with sixteen bird owners using a semi-structured interview guide. The data collected was analysed using thematic analysis. Results Four themes were identified: social network related to birds, relationship with birds, awareness of risks and symptoms of psittacosis, information channels. Conclusions Most of the study participants were hobby breeders. They experience a strong connection with their birds and are experts in this field. In general they feel healthy. The bird owners are unaware of the fact they risk a disease as a consequence of their favourite hobby. However, they seem to be open for advice related to their health. It is recommendable to provide information from a near-by environment (e.g. through internet or at the local bird club) and use credible ambassadors. Increased awareness on the symptoms of psittacosis can be reached if appropriate information is received by bird owners. This might lead to more reports at the general practitioner and therefore prevents severe cases of psittacosis. Key messages Most bird owners were unaware of the health risks related to their birds. To prevent severe cases of psittacosis it is important to provide information from a near-by environment and to use credible ambassadors.
