De este modo, se estimula la participación del alumnado fomentando su capacidad crítica, el entrenamiento en la toma de decisiones y el trabajo en equipo. Con esta metodología innovadora, la interacción docente-alumnado se inclina hacia una mayor intervención del estudiantado y fomentando el papel del profesorado como facilitador en la adquisición de los conocimientos y las destrezas por parte del estudiantado. Tiene una doble función: servir de material de estudio y de autoevaluación. La autoevaluación para determinar el nivel de conocimientos adquiridos se realiza a través de la resolución de casos clínicos comentados, con los que se valora el desarrollo de las habilidades a través de preguntas con respuestas argumentadas. El texto ha sido elaborado por un equipo de profesionales con amplia experiencia en la enfermería de la salud sexual y reproductiva, tanto en los ámbitos asistencial, docente y de gestión como en el de la investigación, que desarrollan su labor en diferentes universidades y centros sanitarios. Los temas que tratan son amplios y abarcan desde la exploración obstétrica hasta los cuidados en las complicaciones en el parto y el puerperio, sin descuidar un aspecto tan fundamental como los cuidados en la lactancia materna. El texto está escrito de forma que pueda ser fácilmente comprensible y con una orientación didáctica que refleje la situación más parecida a lo que el alumnado va a encontrar en las prácticas docentes, incluyendo para ello material audiovisual e iconografía, lo que permite una mejor comprensión de los contenidos desarrollados y una aproximación más fiel a la realidad contextual donde se desarrolla el proceso de aprendizaje.
