Abstract:

Objectives To explore the application methods and effects of the learning community in the course of Health Education Theory and Method for postgraduate in nursing students. Methods Guided by the learning community model,the Health Education Theory and Method teaching was developed from six aspects,including setting teaching goals of the learning community,creating a beneficial cultural atmosphere for the learning community,advocating dialogue and negotiation among members within the learning community,designing teaching activities,providing a suitable environment for teaching activities,and establishing communication and sharing system among members within the learning community. Six,twelve,and nine students who chose this course were divided into 3 to 4 groups respectively in academic years from 2018 to 2020. Guided by the learning community model,students learned six major parts,including health education theories,health promotion projects evaluation,and health promotion projects development during this course. Except for the introduction part,the learning process of each part included three steps,covering self-learning in the form of small groups,communicating and discussing between groups followed by interaction with teachers during class,and group reflection after class. The teaching effects were evaluated by analyzing reflective diaries. Results A total of 135 reflective diaries were collected from 27 students,and three main themes were extracted：profoundly mastering the knowledge and theory of health education,effectively improving students’ health education research and practice capacities,and comprehensively improving students’ qualities. Conclusion The application of the learning community can not only help students profoundly master knowledge and improve health education-related capacities,but also help improve the comprehensive abilities of students.
