Nursing teaching as a space for the development of health education technologies

Abstract

This article consists of a report on the experience of creating a new health educational technology against smoking invented by an academic of the Nursing School Graduation Course. The construction involved a problem solving methodology, with the participation of teachers, students, smokers and the community, in a constant process of teaching and learning, based on numberless interactions with the creative and critic responses obtained. It became clear that this technology is a powerful tool in the combat of smoking and that it can be adapted to different issues.
