Abstract
Background and Aim: Service-based learning, as a kind of experiential learning, connects nursing education to the real world. The purpose of the present study was to examine the concept of service-based learning in nursing by Rodgers's Evolutionary Concept Analysis Method.
Methods: In this review study, English-language databases including Science Direct, Medline, Cochrane library and CINAHL, and Persian-language databases like Scientific Information database were searched by a three-step searching method from 2005 to 2015. To demonstrate a conceptual model of service-based learning, Rodgers's Evolutionary Concept Analysis Method was used.
Results: Of a total of 6543 articles identified, 165 were included into the second step, of which only 32 were relevant to the field of nursing. Using the given answers to the 9 questions raised in the study, the new approach to the service-based learning model was developed.
Conclusion: According to the growing demands of societies from educational centers on graduate students who are able to work in real social life settings, recommends the necessity of focusing in this new educational approach. For more objective evaluations of this new educational approach, it is advisable to use its specialized check list.
