Pedagogical strategy for teaching and learning Epidemiology in Nursing undergraduate school. Rev Bras Enferm. 2019 Mar-Apr;72(2):414-419 Authors: Kolchraiber FC, Freitas MAO, Santana CLA, Hino P, Souza KMJ, Gamba MA Abstract OBJECTIVE: to implement a pedagogical strategy in the epidemiology course of a nursing school in a public university. METHOD: This is an interventional prospective study, with a critical epidemiological approach, based on the learner's worldview for a theoretical conception about science. The development of the study started from a field recognition for the systematization of the teaching-learning strategy and ended with the evaluation of the course. RESULTS: 67 students participated in the study, 91% were female and 54% were between 20 and 29 years old. Prior knowledge was mostly clinical/biological, and the strategy used enhanced the knowledge of science in a critical, creative and reflective way, stimulating intersectionality and teamwork through the use of Information and Communication Technologies. FINAL CONSIDERATION: The pedagogical strategy provided a meaningful learning about the principles of epidemiology. PMID: 31017204 [PubMed - in process]
