Abstract
Nurse educators may find it difficult to teach crucial content while imparting the caring values and identity of the nurse that Jean Watson described. Engaging with caring in learning requires moving beyond traditional formats that do not engage emotional/affective contemplation in application. A mini course was designed to expose undergraduates to the principles and personal application of the 10 Caritas Processes® using three interrelated contemplative activities. Student comments and journals are presented as evidence of understanding the purpose of caring values and how to begin to apply them in practice. Contemplative activities aid in developing caring values necessary for practice. Caring is important for sustained practice and research is needed regarding the effectiveness of contemplative methods in imparting caring values, forming professional identity, and long-term effect on nursing practice.
