Introduction: The training of the nurse has been passive and traditional hence the concern of teachers to refocus education in response to today's context where the nurse is expected to assume a leading and participative role in patient care.

Non parametric statistical analysis using Mac Nemar. Results. When comparing the global ratings of both groups, there was a significant development in the participatory intervention group (p = 0.031). Conclusions. The participatory educational strategy favors development of complex cognitive skills such as critical thinking.
