title: Using reflection and experience in nurse education.
abstract: It has long been recognized that a gap exists between theory and practice in nursing and that the theory learned in the classroom is not seen by students to relate to their area of practice. How can nurse educators narrow this theory--practice gap? This article examines the use of reflection to facilitate cancer nurse education.
