Evaluation indicators in the nursing teaching

Abstract

The objective of this work is to carry out a critical and reflexive analysis about the evaluation indicators in the nursing learning-teaching, starting from the supposition that is considered, greater persistence of the pedagogical traditional model, repetitive methods of learning and a gap theoretical-practical, from the curriculum design to the process of evaluation. The problems perceived and observed are presented and some alternatives are proposed with indicators for them. First, the conceptual aspects of evaluation are, indicator and standard. Second, the purpose, pedagogical context and evaluation as well as the evaluation process in nursing and substantive functions are shown, with a proposal of indicators for the same, from the nursing program. What underlies through the article is the use of some indicators, to guide the productivity of the program and to indicate weak and strong points. © 2007 Corporación Editora Médica del Valle.
