title: Discovery of meaning through imagined experience, writing, and evaluation.
abstract: Writing is frequently referred to as a skill. Its value, however, is most often judged by what it produces, when, ironically, studying the process of writing may be the best way to improve the product. This teaching plan asks students to develop a meaningful written product while focusing on context, content, and process evaluation. It also provides a learning experience that has the potential to enhance empathy and caring among nursing students.
