Praying Online: Reflections and Suggestions for Nurse Educators.

ABSTRACT: This article presents reflections and suggestions for nurse educators in a Christian institution who want to pray with students while teaching online. Suggestions primarily relate to recording prayers for class, including avoiding the appearance of coercion; being clear that students' participation in the recorded prayer will have no effect on grades; placing prayer in recorded material at a consistent location (such as the beginning or the end) so students know when it is coming; being creative in offering varying ways to pray; being authentic; and inviting student participation.
