Abstract:Objective To explore effects of utilizing learning community teaching model based on the Attention-Relevance-Confidence-Satisfaction (ARCS) motivation model in urology nursing internships.Methods A total of 52 nursing interns who underwent clinical internships in urology from January to September 2023 were assigned to the control group, which was subjected to the traditional clinical teaching model.An observation group consisting of 53 nursing interns from October 2023 to June 2024 was subjected to the learning community teaching model based on the ARCS motivation model.The results of written exam and skill exam, internship satisfaction, and learning motivation of both groups were compared.Results The observation group scored significantly higher in written exam and skill exam as well as in internship satisfaction compared to the control group, with statistically significant diffe-rences (all P<0.01).Additionally, the observation group′s scores on the learning motivation strategy subscale and overall score were higher than those of the control group and their own pre-implementation scores, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.01).Conclusion The learning community teaching mode based on the ARCS motivation model can effectively enhance the knowledge & skills level, and internship satisfaction of nursing interns working in urology, while significantly improving students′ learning motivation.
