Abstract

Abstract:

Objective This study explores the efficacy of Kolb’s experiential learning theory-based structured reflective journals during community nursing internships. Methods A convenience sample of 86 nursing undergraduates from a university were selected as participants. By class and through a drawing method，they were divided into an experimental group（n=41） and a control group（n=45）. The control group followed the conventional clinical nursing internship arrangements，while the experimental group completed standard community internship tasks plus regular journal reflection guided by Kolb’s theory. Results After a four-week internship，the experimental group achieved significantly higher scores in theoretical assessments，daily performance，and self-evaluations of internship effectiveness compared to the control group（P<0.05）. Semi-structured interviews with 10 nursing students revealed four main themes：promoting deep integration of theory in real community contexts，facilitating the transformation of knowledge into practical skills，enhancing the systematic and autonomous nature of nursing practice，and cultivating family- and community-oriented professional identity. Conclusion Structured reflective journals based on Kolb’s experiential learning theory can effectively enhance the outcomes of community nursing internships. This tool offers a viable approach to shift community nursing education from superficial experience accumulation toward systematic competency cultivation.
