OSTALO / OTHER: GEOBIOBLITZ

GeoBioBlitz je vsakoletni dogodek v organizaciji Ameriškega veleposlaništva v Ljubljani. Skupine slovenskih šolarjev in učiteljev se za dva dni podajo na tematski izlet v naravni park, kjer s strokovnjaki raziskujejo različna področja geologije, biologije, botanike itd. Izobraževanje ima močno naravovarstveno noto, opozarjajoč na teme, kot je izginjanje vrst, biotska raznovrstnost, invazivne vrste itd. Učenci in učitelji med raziskovanjem fotografirajo vrste, ki jih najdejo, jih identificirajo in uvrstijo v spletno aplikacijo, ki katalogizira biodiverziteto po posameznih naravnih parkih sveta. Dogodek je nastal po vzoru podobnih izobraževanj v ZDA.

GeoBioBlitz is an annual two-day event organized by the Embassy of the United States of America in Ljubljana. Groups of Slovenian students and their teachers take a thematic trip to a natural park where they join experts in exploring geology, biology, botany, forestry etc. The educational event has a strong environmentalist tone, dealing with topics like disappearing species, biodiversity, invasive species etc. During their explorations students and teachers photograph species that they find, identify them and upload them into an app that catalogues biodiversity according to national parks. The event emerged from similar events in the United States.
