Abstract

Abstract Nurse educators are faced with the challenge of teaching students to be both competent practitioners and compassionate caregivers. Nursing education largely focuses on technical proficiency, nursing knowledge, and evidence-based practice. As a result, there is less emphasis on caring, with an erosion of empathy in nursing students. Building on the foundations laid by Dewey, Buber, and Watson, nurse educators can design pedagogical approaches connecting cognitive and affective learning to increase empathy in students now and encourage compassionate practice in the future. Furthermore, nurse educators can serve as role models of compassionate care through engaging in authentic, caring relationships with students.
