Abstract (English):	The scope of the present paper is to identify the degree of skill in administering medicine intradermally, based on a self-evaluation done through a checklist, in a group of nursing undergraduates from a private university in Colombia who were taking a Medicine Administration course. Methodology involved an evaluative observational study, including 47 students, during the first term of 2011. A checklist with 21 items was used to evaluate the fulfilment of all the steps of the process of the intradermal administration of medicine, which was done by students in two occasions, first in a simulated situation and with teachers present, and afterwards when students independently visited the university's centre of clinic simulations and performed an intradermal injection on a simulated patient, which was filmed, and then ran the checklist as they watched themselves, concluding the self-evaluation. Results confirmed a significant statistical improvement when comparing the results of both self-evaluations, performed at different times. A smaller dispersion was also seen in the evaluations. It was thus concluded that this teaching model and the self-evaluations improve the students' self-learning abilities and their overall preparation. Self-learning and self-evaluation require the implementation of motivational strategies which complement the teaching model. Checklists are therefore tools that reinforce the learning process and encourage autonomy and skill improvement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish):	Objetivo: identificar el logro de las competencias en la administración de medicamentospor vía intradérmica, a partir de la autoevaluación con una lista de chequeo, en un grupode estudiantes del Pregrado de Enfermería de una universidad privada en Colombia quecursaba la asignatura Administración de Medicamentos. Materiales y métodos: se realizóun estudio observacional evaluativo, en 47 estudiantes, en el primer periodo académicodel 2011. Se utilizó como instrumento una lista de chequeo con 21 ítems que evalúo lascompetencias del proceso de administración de medicamentos por vía intradérmica, lacual se aplicó en dos momentos: el primero, al final de la realización del procedimiento porparte del estudiante en una situación simulada con acompañamiento docente, y el segundo,tres semanas después, cuando el estudiante, de forma independiente, asistió al centrode simulación clínica de la institución, aplicó los pasos referidos para las competenciasdel procedimiento en un paciente simulado, realizó una grabación audiovisual de su actuacióny se autoevaluó de acuerdo con su cumplimiento. Resultados: se confirmó unamejora estadística y significativa de los estudiantes en el logro de las competencias en elproceso de administración de medicamentos por vía intradérmica, comparados los resultadosde dos autoevaluaciones en tiempos diferentes. Se evidenció una menor dispersiónen las calificaciones. Se considera que el modelado docente y la autoevaluación permitenpromover mayor autoaprendizaje y preparación del estudiante. El autoaprendizaje porautoevaluación requiere implementar estrategias motivacionales que se complementancon el modelado docente. Las listas de chequeo se constituyen en una herramienta parareforzar el aprendizaje, así como impactar la autonomía y el desarrollo de habilidades. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
