Background:

The pedagogical practices in nursing education are a wide field of study due to the new health needs.

Objective:

To identify the pedagogical practices developed by teachers in an undergraduate nursing program.

Methodology:

Qualitative research, case study type. Data were collected in 2020 through in-depth interviews with five nursing teachers working at a public university in Mexico. Data were organized and analyzed using an inductive approach based on Minayo’s operational proposal.

Results:

Four categories emerged: Teaching - Why and for what; Pedagogical preparation for teaching; Teaching-learning strategies used by nursing teachers; Challenges of pedagogical practice from the perception of nursing teachers.

Conclusion:

Teachers report that they did not have pedagogical training and that, at the beginning of their teaching career, they individually sought the necessary preparation to teach.
