Abstract

This research aimed to design, implement and evaluate a distance learning course (DLC), using the Internet, in a virtual environment named TelEduc. Thirty-eight nurses were invited, 28 of whom registered and 17 concluded the course. The specialists and the students evaluated the course and diagnostic (pre-test), process and final (post-test) evaluations were made. Specialists in distance learning and wounds considered the course as adequate but recommended minor adjustments. Most of the students showed a positive opinion about the course. A comparison between pre- and post-test results showed that students scored better on the post-test (p<0.0001). The course reached its objectives, although some adjustments are needed.

RLAE’s authorship concept is based on the substantial contribution by each of the individuals listed as authors, mainly in terms of conceiving and planning the research project, collecting or analyzing and interpreting data, writing and critical review. Indication of authors’ names under the article title is limited to six. If more, authors are listed on the online submission form under Acknowledgements. The possibility of including more than six authors will only be examined on multicenter studies, considering the explanations presented by the authors.
Including names of authors whose contribution does not fit into the above criteria cannot be justified. Those names can be included in the Acknowledgements section.
 Authors are fully responsible for the concepts disseminated in their manuscripts, which do not necessarily reflect the editors’ and editorial board’s opinion.
