MINE project is over..unfortunately. There were two weeks of work but fun, two weeks of knowing each others and how nursing works in other countries. It was really a good experience for me, I feel enriched by it..expecially for the people I met: everyone has something to teach us, and I learnt a lot thank to the finnish experience. I learnt a lot about how to stay with peole, sharing spaces, time and ideas..and, of course, about nursing.
I'm leaving for London for my Erasmus programme in two days and I can really appreciate how useful the informations we collected in the Wiki are! I can definitely affirm that an erasmus student needs a lot of informations, because they feel anxious and quite "lost" in the host country. I also think that a lot of nursing students, and maybe also a lot of nurses, don't know so much about the role of the nurse, his autonomy and his tasks in the foreign countries, even if nurses are the most "moving" professionals through Europe, so i appreciated a lot our work during the two weeks, in order to create and collect informations to be shared with a lot of people...and maybe we could enlarge the project for all the outgoing Erasmus students!
Thinking about the learning process adopted, I really appreciated the group-working: comparing ideas and working together, using our personal abilities was great! In Italy we're not used to that kind of method. Apart form that, I have to say that I love writing by hand..so blog was something new for me; anyway, I think that, nowadays, if we want to get through to young people we have to use tecnologies, and facebook and blogs are really useful.
At the end I can say that I'm really satisfied by the MINE experience and that I hope that it can have a follow up.
Thank you so much to you all!
