title: Mentoring for publication: faculty and student perspectives.
abstract: Mentoring can be used to teach the writing process and to encourage undergraduate minority nursing students to produce manuscripts for publication. Through a one-to-one mentoring relationship with a nursing faculty member, a student is made aware of the links between writing as a critical skill for learning and acquiring the skills for professional nursing. The mentoring relationship supports the student from developing an idea for publication to actively participating in preparing a manuscript.
