| Bayada Technology Award The Neighborhood, a Multi-contextual Learning Tool Jean Giddens, Associate Professor at the University of New Mexico College of Nursing, received this award for her work in developing a multi-contextual, student-centered learning tool called The Neighborhood. The Neighborhood is a fictitious web-based community featuring 36 characters of various ages, socioeconomic backgrounds, and levels of health. Character stories unfold each week throughout the three-semester program, depicting healthcare issues across multiple environments, including homes, schools, churches, outpatient offices and hospitals. Through the stories, students learn not only about specific health problems but also about the dynamics, variables and factors that come into play when working in a community.
