[Strategies for the implementation of a new pedagogical proposal at the Nursing School of the Federal University of Bahia]

(Estratégias para a implantação de uma nova proposta pedagógica na Escola de Enfermagem da Universidade Federal da Bahia.)

Full Abstract

This article reflects on the process of designing the Pedagogical Project for the Nursing School from Federal University of Bahia. The socialization of this experience intends to contribute with other nursing institutions which, in order to meet new curricular requirements (DCENF--National Curricular Guidelines for Nursing, Medicine, and Nutrition Undergraduate Programs), are going to experience similar processes or which are presently going through the same process. This article includes some historical features and the legal basis for changes, by presenting the reasons for the current proposal, as well as its curricular organization, the main challenges and some strategies for overcoming them. Although some aspects which still need further attention from the faculty are presented, such as interdisciplinary program contents, academic management, the evaluation process and the implementation of the proposal, the authors come to the conclusion that this debate is to be continued. As this process is a dynamic one and is still under construction, other challenges might come up that demand the use of new strategies for their (re)orientation.
