Design thinking como metodologia na elaboração de uma proposta de matriz curricular / Design thinking as a methodology in the elaboration of a curricular structure proposal

Resumo Introdução: A matriz curricular do curso de Medicina pode variar de acordo com o projeto pedagógico de curso (PPC) de cada instituição de ensino superior (IES). Nem sempre a visão da coordenação e do corpo docente do curso de Medicina está alinhada às opiniões dos alunos. Assim, a utilização de uma metodologia para identificar a visão do corpo discente seria fundamental. O design thinking (DT) é um processo que propõe a busca, de forma empática, colaborativa e criativa, de soluções para problemas complexos. Objetivo: Este estudo apresenta o DT como uma metodologia para identificar como os alunos do internato acreditam que deva ser a matriz curricular do primeiro ao quarto ano de um curso de Medicina no estado de São Paulo, e, para tanto, coletaram-se sugestões e pontos que exigiram a reavaliação na matriz original. Método: Realizou-se uma avaliação qualitativa com base no modelo do DT. Os alunos foram divididos em três grupos de cinco alunos, e cada grupo dedicou-se a discutir livremente sobre suas ideias acerca da matriz curricular. Posteriormente, apresentou-se um painel para cada grupo com a separação dos semestres correspondentes - do primeiro ao quarto ano - com post-it representando a matriz curricular vigente do curso de Medicina, e cada grupo teve uma hora para remontar a matriz curricular da maneira que julgasse mais adequado. Resultado: Após a fase de discussão, cada grupo montou sua matriz curricular, e propuseram-se algumas mudanças do ano em que a disciplina era ministrada e a inclusão de algumas matérias. A maioria das sugestões foi julgada procedente e incorporada na matriz curricular. Conclusão: A metodologia do DT contribuiu para a identificação de várias demandas acerca da matriz curricular de uma forma ordenada, empática e colaborativa, levando em consideração a opinião do estudante, sendo, portanto, uma estratégia de planejamento capaz de evidenciar fragilidades e fortalezas do currículo que talvez não fossem percebidas por outras estratégias.

Abstract Introduction: The medical school curricular structure may vary according to the educational planning of each higher education institution (HEI). The viewpoint of the coordination and the medical school faculty is not always aligned with the students' opinions. Thus, using a methodology to identify the students' point of view would be essential. Design thinking (DT) is a process that proposes a search, in an empathetic, collaborative, and creative way, for solutions to complex problems. Objectives: To present DT as a methodology to identify how clinical internship students believe the curricular structure from the 1st to the 4th year of a São Paulo state medical school should be, by collecting suggestions and points that require a re-evaluation process of the current curricular structure. Methods: This is a qualitative assessment, which will use the DT model. Students were divided into three groups of five, and each group was committed to having a free discussion on its ideas concerning the curricular structure. Then, a panel was presented to each group, dividing the semesters from the 1st to the 4th year with post-it notes representing the current curricular structure of the medical school, and each group had one hour to reassemble the curricular structure as they deemed appropriate. Results: After the discussion stage, each group assembled its curricular structure. Some changes concerning the year in which the discipline was provided were proposed, and the inclusion of others. Most of the suggestions were considered valid and were incorporated into the curriculum. Conclusions: The DT methodology contributed to the identification of several demands regarding the curricular structure in an orderly, empathetic, and collaborative way, taking into account the students' opinions. It is, therefore, a planning strategy able to evidence weaknesses and strengths of the curriculum that might not have been noticed by the use of other strategies.

Definition， Framework and Connotation of Modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine Theories / 中医杂志

The modernization of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） theories is not only a prerequisite for the modernization of TCM but also a way to deal with the external environment and the difficulties of its development. The modernization of TCM is based on the premise of maintaining its own characteristics and advantages， and along with the progress of modern science and technology， the entire TCM has undergone new changes and improvements from theory to practice， and has become a scientific system with modern scientific level that adapts to the needs of the times. In the context of the unprecedented profound changes in contemporary TCM academics， this paper puts forward the definition of modernization of TCM theory and argues that the modernized theoretical system of TCM should maintain originality to build the foundation of TCM inheritance， clarify the frontier of the discipline and establish the conceptual system， form an open network to be compatible with multi-disciplinary interaction， incorporate the falsification and establish self-renewal system， creatively transform and innovatively develop， and modernize the interpretation and update the discourse system.

Inheritance and Innovation of Basic Theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the Context of Mutual Understanding of Civilisations / 中医杂志

In the context of the current era when different civilizations are learning from each other， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） needs to continuously draw the essence from modern scientific and technological civilization for creative inheritance and innovative development. It is essential to master the classic texts of TCM to solidify its theoretical foundation， while also read extensively to broaden the academic horizons. TCM's inheritance and innovation should be integrated with the current era's context and social reality， and delve into the essence of TCM's academic experience and clinical practice. Emphasis should be placed on the inheritance of original TCM thinking， and return to the original image creation and transformation. Using image thinking as the main approach， and combined it with modern complex systems science and front-edge methodologies， we could elaborate the TCM theories such as correspondence between nature and human， five circuits and six qi， constitution and endowment， and harmony of body and spirit. The training of academic talents must be at the forefront， closely follow the new trends of the development of contemporary scientific and technological civilization， identify the “pain points” of discipline development， focus on the key areas for improvement， and seek the highlights of academic research. There should be a courage to question and propose new insights， construct new concepts， establish new theories， transform the weakness in original theoretical innovation， and enrich the evolving connotation of TCM.

UBUIngenio: extracurricular enrichment programme for the improvement of high ability students' creative thinking

Background: High-ability students require effective educational strategies. This study introduces and evaluates a curriculum enrichment programme aimed at enhancing cre ativity. The programme is based on a competency framework and was implemented using variations of Project-Based Learning (PBL) strategies. Method: A quasi-experimental design compared two interventions using pre-test and post-test groups. The first intervention (N = 38) involved a 12-week PBL unit focused on designing a video game using block-based program ming through Scratch. The second intervention (N = 51), also lasting 12 weeks, comprised three separate projects involving vectorial design and programming of an Arduino-based ro bot. Both interventions used strategies for creative-thinking development. The sample includ ed high-ability students from 8 to 12 years of age. Results: Both interventions significantly increased creativity, with no statistical differences between them. This suggests that both types of PBL interventions effectively improved participants' creativity. Conclusions: This study suggests that PBL-based curricular enrichment programmes are effective in fostering creativity among high-ability students.

Antecedentes: Los estudiantes con alta capacidad requieren estrategias educativas efectivas. Este estudio presenta y evalúa un programa de enriquecimiento curricular diseñado para mejorar la creatividad. El programa se basa en un marco de competencias y se implemen tó utilizando variaciones de estrategias de aprendizaje basado en proyectos (ABP). Método: Un diseño cuasi-experimental comparó dos intervenciones utilizando grupos pretest y postest. La primera intervención consistió en una unidad de ABP de 12 semanas centrada en el diseño de un videojuego utilizando programación basada en bloques mediante Scratch. La segunda intervención, también de 12 semanas de duración, consistió en tres proyectos independientes de diseño vectorial y programación de un robot basado en Arduino. En ambas intervencio nes se utilizaron estrategias para el desarrollo del pensamiento creativo. La muestra incluía estudiantes con altas capacidades de entre 8 y 12 años. Resultados: Ambas intervenciones aumentaron significativamente la creatividad, sin diferencias estadísticas entre ellas. Esto sugiere que ambos tipos de intervenciones de ABP mejoraron efectivamente la creatividad de los participantes. Conclusiones: Este estudio sugiere que los programas de enriquecimiento curricular basados en ABP son efectivos para fomentar la creatividad entre los estudiantes con altas capacidades.

Currículo para el Desarrollo del Pensamiento Bioético en Profesionales de la Fisioterapia / Curriculum for the Development of Bioethical Thinking in Physiotherapy Professionals

Introducción. Todo ser humano necesita gozar de bienestar y ser reconocido como un sujeto activo en el desarrollo de la sociedad, por lo que la administración pública debe garantizar, respetar y proteger el derecho a la salud, el cual ha sido transgredido en las últimas décadas, vulnerando a la población a nivel mundial. Objetivo. Fundamentar teórica, metodológica y epistemológicamente la propuesta de un currículo, que desarrolle el pensamiento bioético en el profesional de la Fisioterapia. Métodos. Se sustenta en el paradigma sociocrítico y en la investigación acción educativa, desde la visión de Miguel Martínez-Miguélez, que busca reconceptualizar la indagación en el aula en términos participativos, relacionándolo con las actividades propias del quehacer educativo, como es la construcción y desarrollo del currículo. Resultados. Con el proceso investigativo se construyó ­en colectivo­ la definición del concepto de pensamiento bioético y se diseñó un currículo prácti-senti-pensante para los estudiantes de Fisioterapia, a partir de la pedagogía sentipensante y del paradigma del cerebro triádico (o triúnico) que interrelaciona las acciones, los sentimientos y los conocimientos en la formación humana de los futuros fisioterapeutas. Conclusiones. El currículo práctisentipensante trasciende a una estructura cognitiva trinitaria, resaltando la importancia de entrelazar las disciplinas por la supervivencia del ser humano y el equilibrio del planeta, destacando lo humanístico y la bioética, a través de un currículo que evoca a la reflexión de la comunidad educativa con el fin de articular lo desunido.

Background. Every human being needs to enjoy well-being and be recognized as an active subject in the development of society, so public administration must guarantee, respect and protect the right to health, which has been transgressed in recent decades, violating the population worldwide. Objective. To theoretically, methodologically and epistemologically base the proposal of a curriculum that develops bioethical thinking in the Physiotherapy professional. Methods. It is based on the socio-critical paradigm and educational action research, from the vision of Miguel Martínez-Miguélez, who seeks to reconceptualize inquiry in the classroom in participatory terms, relating it to the activities of educational work, such as construction and development of the curriculum. Results. With the research process, the definition of the concept of bioethical thinking was built ­collectively­ and a practical-senti-thinking curriculum was designed for Physiotherapy students, based on senti-thinking pedagogy and the paradigm of the triadic (or triune) brain that interrelates actions, feelings and knowledge in the human training of future physiotherapists. Conclusion. The practical thinking curriculum transcends a trinitarian cognitive structure, highlighting the importance of interweaving the disciplines for the survival of the human being and the balance of the planet, highlighting the humanistic and bioethics, through a curriculum that evokes the reflection of educational community to articulate the disunited.

Equidade em saúde para a população em situação de rua: uma revisão crítica / Health equity for homelessness: a critical review

RESUMO A noção de equidade em saúde se manifesta nas sociedades modernas por meio de diferentes ideias e propostas operacionais. No que diz respeito às pessoas em situação de rua, a equidade dialoga com a igualdade e a justiça para mobilizar diversas aplicações na saúde: enquanto a concepção liberal de equidade em saúde busca favorecer as condições de saúde dessa população sem romper com o modo de produção vigente, a concepção crítica almeja ampliar as condições e as necessidades de saúde na luta por uma sociedade emancipada. Com o objetivo de caracterizar as concepções de equidade em saúde expressas na literatura científica sobre essa população, este estudo realizou uma revisão crítica dos artigos disponíveis em portais de busca on-line. 1.716 publicações foram identificadas na amostragem inicial e 35 artigos foram incluídos na revisão após aplicação de procedimentos metodológicos. Os artigos foram caracterizados com relação às ideias e aplicações da equidade em saúde para a população em situação de rua, discutindo-se a respeito de metodologia, justiça e igualdade, distinção entre as concepções, processo saúde-doença, políticas públicas e pandemia da Covid-19. Aponta-se para a dominância da concepção liberal na literatura sobre essa população e a necessidade de investigações a partir da concepção crítica.

ABSTRACT The notion of equity in health manifests itself in modern societies through different ideas and operational proposals. Concerning homeless persons, equity dialogues with equality and justice to mobilize several applications in health: while the liberal conception of equity in health seeks to favor the health conditions of this population without breaking with the current mode of production, the critical conception aims to expand health conditions and needs in the struggle for an emancipated society. With the aim of characterizing the conceptions of equity in health expressed in the scientific literature on this population, this study carried out a critical review of the articles available on online search portals databases. 1,716 publications were identified in the initial sample and 35 articles were included in the review after application of methodological procedures. The articles were characterized in relation to the ideas and applications of equity in health for the homeless population, discussing methodology, justice and equality, distinction between conceptions, health-disease process, public policies and the COVID-19 pandemic. It points to the dominance of the liberal conception in the literature on this population and the need for investigations from the critical conception.

Razonamiento clínico y estilo de pensamiento en estudiantes de enfermería / Raciocínio clínico e estilo de pensamento em estudantes de enfermagem / Clinical reasoning and thinking style in nursing students

Introducción El razonamiento clínico es una habilidad que engloba el pensamiento para la toma de decisiones, sin embargo, los factores que favorecen su desarrollo no han sido ampliamente explorados. Se ha descrito que los estilos de pensamiento varían en función del aumento del conocimiento, por lo que es relevante conocer la relación entre ambos para entender mejor el proceso de aprendizaje en enfermería. El objetivo fue analizar la relación entre estilo de pensamiento y nivel de razonamiento clínico en estudiantes de licenciatura en enfermería. Metodología Se realizó un estudio cuantitativo, correlacional, prospectivo. Participaron 126 alumnos del último año de la licenciatura en enfermería, el muestreo fue no probabilístico. Se aplicaron dos instrumentos: "Identificación de estilos de pensamiento" con análisis de los estilos de pensamiento: Monárquico, Jerárquico, Anárquico y Oligárquico, y el de "Habilidades de razonamiento clínico" con la identificación de tres niveles: Bajo, Medio y Alto. Resultados En el 75% predomina el estilo de pensamiento Jerárquico, 65% tuvo un nivel medio de razonamiento clínico. La relación entre ambas variables tuvo un valor de p= 0.026 lo cual indica que existe una diferencia significativa. Discusión y conclusiones De acuerdo con lo encontrado, predomina el estilo de pensamiento jerárquico conforme transcurre la educación universitaria, lo que favorece que el razonamiento clínico se base en lo aprendido dentro de la institución educativa. No existen estudios previos que engloben ambas variables, por lo que se sugiere continuar con el estudio de este binomio, incluyendo estudiantes de diversos semestres de la licenciatura.

Introduction Clinical reasoning is a skill that encompasses decision-making thinking; however, the factors that favor its development have not been widely explored. It has been described that thinking styles vary according to the increase in knowledge, so it is relevant to know the relationship between both in order to better understand the learning process in nursing. The objective was to analyze the relationship between thinking style and level of clinical reasoning in undergraduate nursing students. Methodology A quantitative, correlational, prospective study was conducted. A total of 126 final year nursing students participated in the study, the sampling was non-probabilistic. Two instruments were applied: "Identification of thinking styles" with analysis of thinking styles: Monarchical, Hierarchical, Anarchical and Oligarchical, and "Clinical reasoning skills" with the identification of three levels: Low, Medium and High. Results In 75% the Hierarchical thinking style predominates, 65% had a medium level of clinical reasoning. The relationship between both variables had a value of p= 0.026 which indicates that there is a significant difference. Discussion and conclusions According to the findings, the hierarchical style of thinking predominates as university education progresses, which favors clinical reasoning based on what has been learned within the educational institution. There are no previous studies that include both variables, so it is suggested to continue with the study of this binomial, including students from different semesters of the bachelor's degree.

Metodologia Foi realizado um estudo prospetivo, quantitativo, correlacional e prospetivo. Participaram no estudo 126 estudantes finalistas de enfermagem, com amostragem não probabilística. Foram aplicados dois instrumentos: "Identificação dos estilos de pensamento" com análise dos estilos de pensamento: Monárquico, Hierárquico, Anárquico e Oligárquico, e "Competências de raciocínio clínico" com a identificação de três níveis: Baixo, Médio e Alto. Resultados Em 75% predomina o estilo de pensamento Hierárquico, 65% tem um nível médio de raciocínio clínico. A relação entre ambas as variáveis teve um valor de p= 0,026 o que indica que existe uma diferença significativa. Discussão e conclusões De acordo com os resultados obtidos, o estilo de pensamento hierárquico predomina à medida que se avança na formação universitária, o que favorece o raciocínio clínico baseado no que foi aprendido dentro da instituição de ensino. Não existem estudos anteriores que incluam ambas as variáveis, pelo que se sugere a continuação do estudo deste binómio, incluindo estudantes de diferentes semestres da licenciatura.

A design process to define public challenges addressing SDGs / Un proceso de diseño para definir los desafíos públicos relacionados con los ODS / Um processo de design para definir desafios públicos envolvendo os ODS

Abstract How might we define local innovation challenges that are user-centered but also address strategic goals, such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)? We propose a design process that introduces a relevant contribution to the practices of the Mission-oriented Innovation Policies (MIPs) field as it goes from Grand Societal Challenges (GSCs) to local innovation challenges, which are more relevant to local needs and capabilities of solution. The main goal of the design process is to go from a GSC, such as "access to health" and one of its missions, like "reducing chronic Non-Communicable Diseases (NCD)," to a more able-to-solve innovation challenge, passing by its mission, and different problems and aspects. Snowball sampling methods allow us to find and mobilize electable subjects and design thinking techniques to process problem mapping, election, and clustering, as well as create challenge statements. It was possible to translate GSC to the local reality while reducing contestation and complexity and producing a problem-grouped map with prioritization and three problem statements (challenges) with open phrasing and solution criteria to foster the users' desired outcomes.

Resumen ¿Cómo podemos definir desafíos locales de innovación local que estén centrados en el usuario pero que también aborden objetivos estratégicos, como los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS)? Proponemos un proceso de diseño que introduce una contribución relevante a las prácticas en el campo de las políticas de innovación orientadas por misión (en inglés, Mission-oriented Innovation Policies - MIPs), ya que va desde los grandes desafíos sociales (en inglés, Grand Societal Challenges - GSCs), comenzando con los ODS, hasta los desafíos locales de innovación, que son más relevantes para necesidades locales y capacidades de solución. El objetivo principal del proceso de diseño es ir desde un GSC, como "acceso a la salud" y una de sus misiones, como "reducir las Enfermedades Crónicas No Transmisibles (ECNT)", a un desafío de innovación más concreto, pasando por la misión, y por diferentes problemas y aspectos. Los métodos de muestreo de bola de nieve nos permiten encontrar y movilizar sujetos elegibles, y técnicas de design thinking, procesar el mapeo, la elección y la agrupación de problemas; y crear declaraciones de desafío. Fue posible traducir GSC a la realidad local, al mismo tiempo que se reducía la contestación y la complejidad, y se producía un plano agrupado de problemas con priorización, y tres declaraciones de problemas (desafíos) con redacción abierta y criterios de solución para promover los resultados deseados por los usuarios.

Resumo Como podemos definir os desafios locais de inovação que são centrados no usuário, mas também abordam objetivos estratégicos, como os Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS)? Propomos um processo de design que apresenta uma contribuição relevante para as práticas no campo das políticas de inovação orientadas para a missão (em inglês, Mission-oriented Innovation Policies - MIPs), uma vez que vai dos grandes desafios societais (em inglês, Grand Societal Challenges - GSCs) aos desafios locais de inovação, que são mais relevantes para as necessidades locais e capacidades de solução. O principal objetivo do processo de desenho é passar de um GSC, como o "acesso à saúde" e uma de suas missões, como "reduzir as Doenças Crônicas Não Transmissíveis (DCNT)", para um desafio de inovação mais capaz de resolver, passando pela sua missão, diferentes problemas e aspectos. Os métodos de amostragem bola de neve nos permitem encontrar e mobilizar assuntos elegíveis e técnicas de design thinking para processar o mapeamento de problemas, eleição e agrupamento; e criar declarações de desafio. Foi possível traduzir o GSC para a realidade local, reduzindo a contestação e a complexidade, e produzindo um mapa agrupado de problemas com priorização e três declarações de problemas (desafios) com formulação aberta e critérios de solução para promover os resultados desejados pelos usuários.

Effectiveness of case-based learning among medical interns using microbiology laboratory report as a tool

Background: Due to lack of consensus of teaching learning methods during undergraduate period, intern doctors face many challenges in clinical settings. Knowledge gaps related to clinical application of laboratory medicine leads to poor case management. Active learner centered training with real clinical cases is a need to help the interns to link their basic science knowledge into a practical context. Aims and Objectives: The present study was done to evaluate the effect of case based learning (CBL) on the interns’ knowledge and clinical decision-making skill of interpretation of laboratory investigation reports and to assess perception of participants about CBL. Materials and Methods: CBL method was used to train the interns in clinical application microbiology reports. This is a pre- and post-test type study, carried out for 2 months with 43 Medical interns, willing to participate. The process included evaluation of CBL by pre-validated questionnaires by multiple choice questions, clinical case scenarios before, immediately after and 10 days after the intervention and perception toward CBL was assessed. Statistical analysis was done using Student’s t-test and SPSS 17 software. The value of P < 0.05 was considered as significant. Results: A significant improvement in the interns’ knowledge and problem solving following CBL sessions had been observed in present study. The post-test scores of all the CBL sessions were significantly higher than pre-test scores (P < 0.05). The perception of interns toward CBL was assessed and it was responded positively. It helped in strengthening the critical skills of interns such as problem solving, critical thinking, and teamwork. Conclusion: The present study proved that interns during internship require to be trained in laboratory medicine. CBL is an effective teaching method to train interns in enhancing their problem solving skill with correct use of laboratory test results and strengthening critical thinking, teamwork, and time management skills.

Estratégias de ensino para desenvolvimento do pensamento crítico na graduação em enfermagem: overview de revisões sistemáticas / Educational strategies for development of clinical reasoning and critical thinking in nursing undergraduate students: overview protocol of systematic reviews

Resumo: O objetivo desta pesquisa foi sumarizar as evidências de revisões sistemáticas sobre a efetividade das estratégias de ensino para o desenvolvimento do raciocínio clínico ou pensamento crítico em estudantes da graduação em Enfermagem. Trata-se de uma overview de revisões sistemáticas, guiada pelas recomendações do Cochrane Handbook. O protocolo de pesquisa foi registrado na plataforma Prospero sob o número 187785, sendo este estudo inédito. O uso do protocolo possibilita a replicação ou atualização dessa overview. A pergunta de pesquisa foi: Quais as evidências de efetividade oriundas de revisões sistemáticas sobre as estratégias de ensino, isoladas, comparadas ou associadas, para o desenvolvimento do pensamento crítico dos estudantes de graduação em Enfermagem, em qualquer ambiente de aprendizagem? A busca por revisões Cochrane e não Cochrane foi realizada em oito bases de dados e bibliotecas, e na literatura cinzenta. Não houve restrições de idioma e ano de publicação. Foi recuperado um total de 13.936 estudos, com 6.620 participantes. Dois revisores independentes aplicaram os critérios de inclusão e exclusão, fizeram a extração dos dados e a análise de qualidade das revisões. Foram incluídas 11 revisões, com 65 estudos primários. As sínteses foram descritivas e por metanálises. A análise do risco de viés das revisões sistemáticas foi realizada por meio do instrumento ROBIS (Risk of Bias in Systematic Reviews); a qualidade metodológica foi avaliada pelo instrumento AMSTAR 2 (A MeaSurement Tool to Assess systematic Reviews); e a análise da força da evidência seguiu as recomendações do sistema GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation). Quatorze estudos, com 1.350 participantes, forneceram evidências para metanálise. As evidências, ainda que classificadas como de certeza muito baixa, sugerem que a aprendizagem baseada em problemas e a simulação são estratégias de ensino que possibilitam o desenvolvimento do pensamento crítico em estudantes de graduação em enfermagem. Risco de viés, heterogeneidade elevada, número limitado de estudos, número de participantes reduzido contribuíram para o rebaixamento do nível de certeza das evidências. Recomenda-se que os docentes avaliem as características dos estudantes antes de optarem por uma ou outra estratégia de ensino, e ponderem o uso diversificado. São importantes a frequência e duração da aplicação das estratégias, uma vez que o desenvolvimento do pensamento crítico ocorre de forma processual e contínua. Recomenda-se aos pesquisadores que o relato seja aprimorado, incluindo informações relevantes, como dados estatísticos, características do estudante e do ambiente de ensino. O uso de ferramentas que orientem um relato de qualidade é indicado. No planejamento dos ensaios clínicos, é relevante prever e padronizar o tempo de exposição à estratégia de ensino e a quantidade de sessões; utilizar pelo menos duas escalas de mensuração do pensamento crítico e aplicá-las no mínimo antes e após a intervenção. Tais cuidados promovem robustez aos resultados. A contribuição social dessa tese inédita é a identificação de estratégias de ensino - aprendizagem baseada em problemas e simulação - eficazes para o desenvolvimento do pensamento crítico em estudantes de enfermagem, o que possibilita, consequentemente, aprimorar a qualificação dos futuros enfermeiros para a prática profissional segura e baseada em evidências.

Abstract: The aim of this study was to summarize evidence from systematic reviews on the effectiveness of teaching strategies for the development of clinical reasoning or critical thinking in undergraduate nursing students. This is an overview of systematic reviews guided by the Cochrane Handbook recommendations. The research protocol was registered on the Prospero platform under number 187785 and this study is unprecedented. The use of the protocol makes it possible to replicate or update this overview. The research question was: What is the evidence of effectiveness from systematic reviews on teaching strategies, isolated, compared or associated, for the development of critical thinking of undergraduate nursing students in any learning environment? The search for Cochrane and non-Cochrane reviews was performed in eight databases and libraries, and in the gray literature. There were no language and year of publication restrictions. A total of 13,936 studies with 6,620 participants were retrieved. Two independent reviewers applied inclusion and exclusion criteria and performed data extraction and quality analysis of the reviews. Eleven reviews with 65 primary studies were included. The syntheses were descriptive and by meta-analyses. Analysis of the risk of bias of systematic reviews was performed using the ROBIS instrument (Risk of Bias in Systematic Reviews); methodological quality was assessed using the AMSTAR 2 instrument (A MeaSurement Tool to Assess Systematic Reviews); and analysis of the strength of evidence followed the recommendations of the GRADE system (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation). Fourteen studies of 1,350 participants provided evidence for meta-analysis. Despite the very low certainty of the evidence, findings suggest that the teaching strategies of problem-based learning and simulation enable the development of critical thinking in undergraduate nursing students. Risk of bias, high heterogeneity, limited number of studies, and reduced number of participants contributed to lower the level of certainty of the evidence. It is recommended that professors assess students' characteristics before choosing one or another teaching strategy and consider diversified use. The frequency and duration of the application of strategies is important, since the development of critical thinking occurs in a procedural and continuous way. It is recommended that researchers improve the report, including relevant information such as statistical data and characteristics of students and the teaching environment. The use of tools that guide a quality report is indicated. When planning clinical trials, it is important to predict and standardize the time of exposure to the teaching strategy and the number of sessions; use at least two clinical reasoning measurement scales and apply them at least before and after the intervention. These precautions bring robustness to the results. The social contribution of this unpublished thesis is the identification of effective teaching strategies for the development of critical thinking in nursing students, problem-based learning and simulation, thereby making it possible to improve the qualification of future nurses for a safe and evidence-based professional practice.

Educación y conocimiento liberador / Education and liberating knowledge

Resumen Este ensayo inicia con un aforismo sobre la educación: «forjadora de las fuerzas liberadoras hacia el progreso de la condición humana¼, en su connotación espiritual, intelectual, moral y convivencial en armonía con el ecosistema planetario (progreso dignificante). Se realza la coincidencia de las mayores cotas históricas de educación profesional con la extrema degradación de la cultura occidental, reveladora del papel de la educación que favorece la pasividad ante el conocimiento y el orden imperante. Se contrastan los caracteres de la educación pasiva con los de la participativa basada en el desarrollo del pensamiento crítico. Se define el pensamiento crítico y se argumenta el tipo de ambiente educativo que lo estimula y encauza, en particular, el pensamiento complejo e integrador alusivo al sí mismo proyectado al quiénes somos y dónde estamos, ignorado por la ciencia reduccionista. Se especifican el conocimiento liberador y su finalidad: «entendernos como humanidad fraterna y encontrar nuestro lugar en armonía con el concierto infinitamente diverso del mundo viviente¼. Se sintetizan las revoluciones teóricas -hoy desestimadas-, simientes del conocimiento liberador que develaron al antropocentrismo y a los etnocentrismos como «prisiones del espíritu¼. Se concluye que el conocimiento liberador cumple el papel utópico de orientar y señalizar el caminar interminable hacia el progreso dignificante.

Abstract This essay begins with an aphorism on education: "forger of the liberating forces towards the progress of the human condition", in its spiritual, intellectual, moral and convivial connotation in harmony with the planetary ecosystem (dignifying progress). It highlights the coincidence of the highest historical levels of professional education with the extreme degradation of Western culture, which reveals the role of education that favors passivity in the face of knowledge and the prevailing order. The characteristics of passive education are contrasted with those of participatory education based on the development of critical thinking. Critical thinking is defined and the type of educational environment that stimulates and channels it is argued, in particular the complex and integrative thinking alluding to the self projected to who we are and where we are, absent in reductionist science. Liberating knowledge is specified and its purpose defined as "to understand ourselves as fraternal humanity and to find our place in harmony with the infinitely diverse concert of the living world". The theoretical revolutions -now dismissed- being seeds of liberating knowledge that revealed anthropocentrism and ethnocentrisms as "prisons of the spirit" are synthesized. It is concluded that liberating knowledge fulfills the utopian role of signaling the endless walking towards dignifying human progress.

The Empirical Research Path of Yin-Yang Thinking in Traditional Chinese Medicine / 中医杂志

The yin-yang theory is a thinking model used by ancient people to recognize the world， which is highly compatible with multimodal metaphors. By summarizing the current researches on traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） yin-yang theory and thinking， it is found that there are more clinical researches but few empirical studies， and more conceptual studies but few empirical researches. In view of this， we proposed to conduct researches on TCM yin-yang thinking with the methods such as behavioral experiments， event-related potentials， and functional magnetic resonance imaging techniques， based on the multimodal metaphor theory from the perspective of cognitive science. According to the characteristics of yin-yang， the process of TCM yin-yang thinking is divided into two stages which are yin-yang classification and yin-yang reasoning， and the main directions of empirical research on yin-yang thinking in TCM are outlined by combining with the paradigm of cognitive science， that is， the researches are carried out from the cognitive characteristics of TCM yin-yang thinking， as well as the differences in cognitive mechanisms between TCM yin-yang thinking and western logical thinking.
