Computer-assisted simulation: convergence in the process of education and care in nursing

This article is a methodological study and technological production with the objective to describe the production of a simulated environment of computer-assisted learning in CPR and to reflect on its contributions in the teaching-learning process of students as a proposal of convergence to the educational-care process in nursing. To the degree that the simulated learning environment was developed, the evaluations proceeded from the stages of production in the process of the metodological research by means of specific instruments. The organizational plan and analysis of the technological production was based on the Constructive Framework and followed the steps of methodological research for development of a simulated environment. The study emphasizes that as a mediator between the citizen and the real world, the simulated environment of computer- assisted learning consists of a species of lenses through which the student is capable of seeing the simulated reality and operating within it. It proportionates to the student a new and stimulating opportunity for learning.
