Tecnologia educacional sobre hanseníase para professores do Ensino Fundamental
2020
Leprosy is an ancient disease still present in some countries in Asia and South America. In
2018, 208,641 new cases of leprosy were detected in the world, and of these 79.6% (166,011)
were concentrated in three countries: India, Brazil and Indonesia (WHO, 2020). In the
Americas, Brazil ranks first with 98.8% (28,660) of cases, and second in the world ranking in
absolute number of cases (WHO, 2019). Health education should be seen as a transformative
practice that needs to permeate all disease control actions and for this, digital information and
communication technologies widely used in people's daily lives are important tools for the
dissemination of information. The study aimed to describe the process of construction and
validation of Infohansen educational technology for elementary school teachers.
Methodological research developed in five moments: spatialization of leprosy cases, realization
of Culture Circles, construction of educational technology, technology validation and data
analysis. The geoprocessing technique used the Kernel density estimator to identify areas of
concentration of cases in the urban area of Vitoria de Santo Antao-PE. School teachers in this
area participated in Culture Circles, as a teaching approach to leprosy. Based on the interweaving of popular and scientific knowledge, teachers chose and built digital technology
for the dissemination of information about the disease. The technology was evaluated by 12
judges, 7 health specialists for content validation and 5 education representatives representing
the target population for semantic or face validation. In the technology analysis, the
Concordance Validity Index (I-CVI) and the Scale-Level Content Validity Index (S-CVI) were
calculated, to verify the agreement, the binomial test was performed. In the face assessment of
the 39 items, two did not reach the proportion of relevance of the judges of the target audience,
and were reworked. The results showed that the judges considered the relevance of Infohansen
digital technology, as an instrument in the expansion of knowledge about Hansen's disease, and
in the formation of multipliers in a dynamic and interactive process. This research was approved
by the Research Ethics Committee Involving Human Beings-UFPE under CAEE no
81064017.2.0000.5208.
