Abstract
This chapter considers the concept of co-creation within nurse education. Nursing students invariably accrue practice experience, which is both more contextual and more current than that of the nurse educators who are teaching them. Despite this, nursing students are rarely, if ever, consulted about their educational experiences, which is often more current and contextualised than that of nurse teachers. While many nurse educators engage in co-creation this is usually confined to activities at the level of the classroom, and as such is limited to learning and teaching methods, with the result that co-creation does not permeate curriculum development in any meaningful sense. The chapter discusses the pragmatics of the co-created nursing curriculum.
