“…Our results demonstrate that the students greatly appreciated learning in small groups. These results align with those of a scoping review by Dionne et al 21 , who showed the importance of students contributing equally to the group. In line with Dionne et al's findings, we observed that small groups seem to promote discussions and help students to understand the subject better, so learning in small groups is a positive experience.…”

To face teaching challenges during COVID-19, a new three-step blended learning pedagogical scenario for leg ulcers was developed combining e-learning, theoretical seminars and workshops. The aim of this survey is to explore students' perceptions of the three-step learning unit presented during the COVID-19 pandemic. MethodAn online anonymous survey comprising five Likert scale questions and two open-ended questions was sent to the 151 participating nursing students. Quantitative data were analysed with descriptive statistics, and qualitative data were addressed using thematic analysis. ResultsA total of 68 students participated in this survey. The students reported that the newly developed threestep unit promoted their learning. The allocated time for the e-learning was, for 20 (29%) students, insufficient. The qualitative data demonstrated the benefits of studying in small groups and using e-learning as well as following a structured learning program. Workshops led by clinical nurse specialists and the use of adapted wound care materials were reported as essential. ConclusionStudents appreciate this three-step blended-learning unit. Small groups led by clinical specialists promote a positive learning environment. Further research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of this approach.All authors were responsible and accountable for all parts of this project and participated in the data analyses. More specifically, PB started the development of this project. PB and CMT developed and designed the e-learning. LuC, CG and PB developed the workshops. LaCa and SP provided feedback and significant input on the project and workshops.

Resumen Objetivo: analizar la estructura de los programas de enseñanza y los contenidos del componente de salud y desarrollo del adolescente en la formación de los estudiantes de enfermería. Método: estudio observacional descriptivo, realizado en Colombia, Ecuador y Perú. Se aplicó el Instrumento para (auto)evaluar el componente de salud y desarrollo del adolescente en la formación de pregrado de los proveedores de salud. Se utilizaron estadísticas descriptivas. Resultados: participaron 95 escuelas (84,1% del total). De los docentes encargados de la enseñanza de la salud de los adolescentes, el 31,6% no tenía formación específica en la materia y el 18,9% no tenía formación en el ámbito de la educación/pedagogía. Los principales temas que podrían incorporarse a la formación son: comportamiento, identidad de género y orientación sexual, bullying y cyberbullying, uso de las tecnologías digitales, violencia en el noviazgo, paternidad y retraso puberal. Conclusión: el profesorado tiene una formación limitada en temas pedagógicos/educativos y en temas específicos de la salud del adolescente. El plan de estudios debe actualizarse con contenidos del desarrollo y salud del adolescente, incluir conocimientos sobre las leyes y políticas, y ampliar la capacidad de las enfermeras para generar, analizar y utilizar datos para la toma de decisiones.

Objective: analyze the structure of teaching programs and contents of the adolescent health and its development in nursing education. Method: descriptive observational study conducted in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. Data was collected by the Instrument for (self-)evaluation of the adolescent health and development component in undergraduate nursing programs, and investigated using descriptive statistics. Results: A total of 95 nursing schools participated in the study (84.1% of the total). Of the faculty responsible for teaching contents relating to adolescent health, 31.6% had no specific training on the topic and 18.9% had no educational/pedagogical training. Behavior, gender identity and sexual orientation, bullying and cyberbullying, use of digital technologies, partner violence, parenting, and pubertal delay were the main topics which could be incorporated into nursing education. Conclusion: the faculty of the schools analyzed have limited education in pedagogical/educational topics and specific adolescent health issues. Curricula should be updated, including knowledge of laws and policies, thus expanding nurses’ ability to generate, analyze and use data for decision making.
