Abstract
- Computerized simulators are important tools that support teaching in many areas. The use of these instruments is often described as significant for students and teachers. In this paper, a software piece was developed to aid decision-making in nursing, allowing the simulation of real situations, addressed in the classroom. The simulator architecture corresponds to a multiagent system supported by a state machine model. To build the knowledge base, a list of contents was selected, including the Nursing Intervention Classification (NIC). An experiment was carried out with the participation of eleven students of the third year of the course. A questionnaire was applied and, as a result, there were more than 90% of acceptance as a relevant educational tool. The simulation, through this tool, contributed to apply theoretical knowledge to the students, besides helping in the development of the nursing decision-making ability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
