Abstract

Abstract This research study focuses on 31 families (n = 105 individuals) and their experience using a place-based e-Trailguide to observe and learn about the local biodiversity during a hike. Open-ended interviews were conducted with each family after their hike with the e-Trailguide to assess shifts in biodiversity awareness. 190 interview responses were thematically coded into 17 different categories. Results showed that new awareness of tree characteristics, plant identification, and insect species were reported most often. Overall, families’ new awareness of plants was reported more than animals. Implications highlight the value of place-based and temporal-specific content when designing outdoor-based mobile programs for families.

在大自然散步时使用基于地点的移动设备，塑造家庭对当地生物多样性的认识

摘要本研究以31个家庭(n = 105个人)为研究对象，研究了他们在徒步旅行中使用基于地点的电子向导来观察和了解当地生物多样性的体验。在徒步旅行结束后，对每个家庭进行了开放式访谈，以评估生物多样性意识的变化。190个采访回答按主题分为17个不同的类别。结果表明，对树木特征、植物鉴定和昆虫种类的新认识报道最多。总体而言，家庭对植物的新认识多于动物。在为家庭设计户外移动节目时，其意义突出了基于地点和特定时间的内容的价值。
