Abstract

There is a critical need to prepare undergraduate and graduate nursing students to take active roles in gerontological nursing research. Nursing educators are faced with multiple challenges such as the demands of the tripartite role (teaching, scholarship, and service), and managing large numbers of students. These issues make it difficult to actively engage nursing research. Students Advancing Reminiscence Research (STARR) is and example of an innovative program that fosters student engagement in research using available resources while enhancing the faculty advisor's program of reminiscence research. The impetus for creating the STARR program is described in this article, and implications and recommendations for nursing education, practice, and policy are presented.
