ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: This article reports an evaluative replication study, including a workshop inspired by Paulo Freire's critical pedagogy. Purpose: Assess how the nursing students' participation in critiquing Canadian empirical evidence on men's health literacy provokes new perceptions; explore students' intentions of incorporating the aforementioned contents into their professional practice; and test students' skills to formulate a hypothetical short action plan about men's health literacy. METHODS: A qualitative evaluation study inspired by the qualitative program evaluation approach. The setting was a university-based Canadian undergraduate nursing program located in a major metropolitan city. Seventeen undergraduate students (representing 3.65% of year 4 student population) composed the sample. The educational intervention was two workshops (6 h duration; February 2017) including a lecture about men's health literacy with video presentations, class discussions and group work using Freire's method of reflection and discussion for awareness awakening. Hypothetical health literacy promotion was the key outcome. All interactions were digitally audiorecorded, verbatim transcribed and submitted to thematic analysis having as themes: Perspectives of awareness and knowledge expansion, and New personal-professional assets. RESULTS: Students were able to relate new knowledge with their own experiences in the classroom or in the practicum. Application of new knowledge was related to students' social circles and reported familiar health matters. Cultural and community life shaped knowledge expansion and references to men's behaviors. CONCLUSIONS: Mobilization of personal knowledge awoke students' awareness about gaps in the nursing curriculum and the paucity of experiences in clinical placements relating to men's health literacy.
