This study explored nursing education's political pedagogical projects (PPPs), finding they guide training for reflective practitioners. While PPPs are collectively developed, their ongoing evaluation and integration of critical-reflexive elements are key concerns.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Higher Education Pedagogy
- Health Professions Training
Context:
- Nursing education quality is linked to training reflexive practitioners.
- Political Pedagogical Projects (PPPs) guide nursing curricula and market articulation.
- Focus on critical-reflexive approaches in nursing training.
Purpose:
- To understand nursing education through current PPPs.
- To examine the conception, construction, and evaluation of PPPs by nursing course coordinators.
- To assess the inclusion of the reflective subject in PPP development.
Summary:
- Analysis of PPPs from Ceará State (UECE) and Federal (UFC) Universities.
- Interviews with nine nursing course coordinators/former coordinators.
- PPPs are central to educational activities, built through collective, non-permanent efforts.
- Significant attention is given to the critical-reflexive nature of nursing education and PPP evaluation.
Impact:
- Highlights the importance of PPPs in shaping nursing education quality.
- Identifies collective development and ongoing evaluation as crucial for effective PPPs.
- Underscores the need to integrate reflective practice principles into nursing curricula.
