DO TRADICIONAL AO ATIVO: O IMPACTO DAS NOVAS METODOLOGIAS NO ENSINO DE ENFERMAGEM

Abstract

The article addresses the impact of active methodologies on nursing education, focusing on the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE), a tool widely used to assess clinical competencies in standardized training. Implemented at a nursing college in Southeast Goiano from 2022, the OSCE promotes a practical and objective assessment, involving students in realistic clinical simulations that integrate theory and practice. The study highlights the role of OSCE in preparing students for the clinical environment, improving their communication, diagnostic and intervention skills. Despite its benefits, the report highlights challenges, such as the need for greater interaction with simulated patients and improvement in the training of those evaluated, in addition to minimizing student stress during the evaluation process. In general, the OSCE proves to be effective in developing essential skills for professional practice, although aspects such as the realism of simulations and feedback to students must be improved to guarantee the effectiveness of the methodology.
