| description | Despite the wide use of service learning, there is lack of a standardised definition and measurable outcomes.
Definitions of service learning found in the literature vary from the very broad to the highly specific. The aim of
this review was to generate a functional definition of service learning and identify its components to constructively
design and evaluate service-learning approaches in nursing education. An integrative review of scholarly literature
was conducted to enable a concept analysis. A comprehensive database search using the search terms through a
range of electronic databases, including CINAHL, MEDLINE, ERIC, Scopus, and the Web of Science from the
earliest retrievable records of each database to June 23, 2015. The search terms used in this review were nursing
students, nursing education, nursing school, community health nursing, community mental health nursing, health
education, and service learning or community based education. A total of 42 studies were included in the review.
A functional definition of service learning is proposed and four components of service learning were identified
in this review, namely a structured form of intra-curricular experiential learning, reflection, reciprocity, and
setting specific outcomes and benefits for stakeholders. The proposed conceptual model of service learning could
contribute to consistent development, implementation, and evaluation of service learning in nursing education. |
