>>>>>Challenge#1: Field Researcher ππ©
πBe a field researcher for a day π
πScientific enquiry or investigation mean how to find out how something works by asking questions about it, and trying to investigate it in a methodical step-by-step process.
πThere are professional scientists out in the field all the time in various environments such as the dessert, mountains or even down in the Antarctic investigating to find answers to their burning question(s).
There are different types of sources scientists use to help them with their investigations or enquiries such as data, primary sources and secondary sources.
πData: is just another term for information. You collect data when you carry out a scientific enquiry.
πPrimary sources: is data you have collected yourself by scientific investigations.
πSecondary sources: is data collected by other people. Secondary sources could be data in books, websites, journals, etc. These sources can help you to further your investigations on a topic.
Field research and scientific investigations all start with a question. So, our adventure is going to find outβ¦
π βIs field research easier with or without using a smartphoneβπ
STEPS
Challenge is to find 3 different plants. This could be the playground, your backyard or the park. Be safe though.
Firstly, do these tasks without your phone. List up the plants and try to identify them. Time how long it takes you to identify the plants.
Next, do the same task with a smartphone using this app:
A Community for Naturalists Β· iNaturalist Australia (ala.org.au)If you donβt have a phone, kindly ask permission to use your parentβs/guardianβs or teacherβs phone.
Note your observations on how long it took you to identify the plants, first without a phone and then with the use of a smartphone. We have provided a simple field research chart example below to help you get started with your field research:
