ABSTRACT
Objective:
to develop and evaluate an online course using WebQuests on antimicrobial stewardship for nursing students, based on international consensus.
Method:
this is a methodological study to develop and validate an educational strategy, as well as quantitative and descriptive to evaluate its practicability. The study was conducted from March 2021 to April 2022. After development, there was validation of the appearance and content of the material by judges, adopting a content validity index greater than 0.80 for each item. The four validated WebQuests were made available in course format on the Open Courses Portal of the Federal University of São Carlos. An instrument was developed in electronic format to evaluate the practicality of the educational strategy according to the views of 73 nursing students. The results were stored in Excel spreadsheets and analyzed using descriptive statistics.
Results:
the educational strategy was validated by 10 expert judges, with a total content validity index greater than 0.90 for appearance and content. Its practicality was evaluated by 73 nursing students, and it was considered easy to understand and implement, with participants expressing interest in using this type of educational strategy.
Conclusion:
the developed, validated and evaluated course is a useful tool and is available free of charge to contribute to the training of future nurses on the topic of antimicrobial stewardship.
