Passion projects: Education through meaningful engagement - NET2017 Conference

The scholastic demands of nursing curricula compel students to prioritize their efforts toward clinical courses and hard science content.  How then given the importance of the soft skills (eg: thinking communicating relating) required for nursing practice do nurse educators engage students in learning that is effective meaningful and perhaps even memorable.  The Passion Project was designed to maximize the student experience through the development implementation and evaluation of a group project that provides opportunity to exercise these skills in real time and circumstances.
