Um relato de caso sobre a construção e elaboração do portfólio como metodologia avaliativa de aprendizagem

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study is to report on the experience of a resident nurse in the construction of a portfolio as an assessment method and theoretical practical learning in the context of a multidisciplinary residency program in the Public Health System. Method: The period lasted from 2010 to 2012, including construction, development and assessment of the portfolio and taking into account chances and difficulties according to the resident nurse’s perspective. Results: It was reported that even in the face of obstacles related to methodology, the portfolio proved an effective assessment tool during residency, as it related to a continuous process and not just a particular moment in the development of the resident nurse. Conclusion: The portfolio contributes to a critical and reflective thinking allowing behavioral changes in practices developed by the resident nurse in their professional activities, as established by the residency program’s political and educational objectives.
