title: [Education for the XXI century and the reflexive teacher's formation in nursing].
abstract: This study shows expert approaches to education in the last few years and discusses the premises of reflexive teaching in this new century. Emphasizing the area of professional nursing, we discuss tendencies in the formation, activities and development of teachers with respect to the required knowledge and abilities, the teaching practice and aspects of nursing teacher's reflexive education in Brazil. Besides providing a deeper knowledge about the subject, the literature review allowed us to reveal the urgent need to revitalize college teaching from a reflexive perspective, in order to increase teachers' commitment and competency for professional performance.
