Development and validation of an instrument for evaluating the ludicity of games in health education

Abstract OBJECTIVE Developing and validating an instrument to evaluate the playfulness of games in health education contexts. METHODOLOGY A methodological, exploratory and descriptive research, developed in two stages: 1. Application of an open questionnaire to 50 graduate students, with content analysis of the answers and calculation of Kappa coefficient for defining items; 2. Procedures for construction of scales, with content validation by judges and analysis of the consensus estimate byContent Validity Index(CVI). RESULTS 53 items regarding the restless character of the games in the dimensions of playfulness, the formative components of learning and the profiles of the players. CONCLUSION Ludicity can be assessed by validated items related to the degree of involvement, immersion and reinvention of the subjects in the game along with the dynamics and playability of the game.

El portafolio o la carpeta de aprendizaje en enfermería como instrumento para un aprendizaje reflexivo y crítico: Una experiencia exportable a otras disciplinas

La experiencia que se presenta se desarrolla en la Escuela de Enfermería y Podología de la Universidad de Barcelona. Desde el 2003 y hasta la actualidad, organizo la asignatura de fundamentos de enfermería con portafolio o carpeta de aprendizaje (CA) en un grupo de docencia de enfermería, la asignatura es troncal, de primer semestre y se le asignan 13,5 créditos. La mejora docente viene dada por la creencia que el cambio en la evaluación, entendida como esencial en el modelo de enseñanza, comporta un cambio en el aprendizaje así como en su percepción y en las relaciones que se establecen en el aula. Es así como se pretende pasar de un paradigma docente estándar a uno de reflexivo y crítico. En el artículo se sitúa la asignatura en la enseñanza, se hace una argumentación teórica del por qué del cambio para la mejora docente y la elección de la CA, se describe la organización de la asignatura con CA y las características, para terminar se lleva a cabo un análisis reflexivo de las ventajas y las dificultades que comporta un cambio aislado en una institución tradicional.
