Attempts to increase diversity within the nursing profession have resulted in the admission of more ethnically diverse students into nursing education programs. However, traditional curricular and pedagogical practices seen in many nursing programs do not accommodate the learning needs of diverse learners. Nurse educators are encouraged to adopt learner-centered pedagogical approaches and embrace multicontextual learning environments. The purpose of this article is to describe the concept of multicontextuality and to introduce an exemplar of a multicontextual learning environment that has been recently developed and implemented in an undergraduate nursing program. The virtual community, known as The Neighborhood, presents nursing concepts in a rich personal and community context through stories and supplemental multimedia. The perceived benefit is enhancement of conceptual learning in a student-oriented learning environment.
为增加护理行业的多样性，更多不同种族的学生被纳入护理教育项目。然而，许多护理项目中传统的课程和教学方法无法满足多样化学习者的学习需求。鼓励护理教育工作者采用以学习者为中心的教学方法，并采用多情境学习环境。本文旨在描述多情境性的概念，并介绍一个最近在本科护理项目中开发和实施的多情境学习环境示例。这个名为“社区”的虚拟社区通过故事和补充多媒体，在丰富的个人和社区背景中呈现护理概念。其带来的明显益处是在以学生为导向的学习环境中增强概念学习。
