SILVA, Eldeci Cardoso da; TALEB, Chater e COSTA, Nilce Maria da Silva Campos. Virtual Environment for Competency Evaluation in the Management of Diabetes Mellitus. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2015, vol.39, n.3, pp.470-478. ISSN 1981-5271. https://doi.org/10.1590/1981-52712015v39n3e01112014.
Diabetes mellitus presents numerous gaps in the effectiveness of its treatment, and in-service evaluation needs to be continuous, systematic and with a guiding dimension in relation to its intrinsic elements: the training process and assessment of professional skills.
Objective
To present the didactic design for building a competency evaluation tool for doctorsin the management of diabetes mellitus, based on its path physiology.
Methods
Structured as a participative study, the Virtual Environment for Competency Assessment, through simulated, virtual clinical cases, proposes an open-ended design that is constructed, evaluated, corrected and improved during its execution.
Results
With Information and Communication Technologies, the tool was developed as part of a master’s research project linked to Telehealth at the Federal University of Goiás School of Medicine. Once validated, the instrument was available for use by students and professionals.
Considerations
The interactive actions proposed by the virtual environment will enable knowledge assessment and identify patterns that may enhance content for DM management. The primary health care network is proposed as the platform for validating the instrument in order to achieve the goals.
