Participatory Science Projects
In Wild Davis, each week of coursework includes content from one chapter
of the California Naturalist handbook and a field activity aligning with
that week’s content. Even in traditional instruction, a few of these
activities involved participatory science programs other than
iNaturalist. Under remote instruction, online participatory science
projects made up half of the field activities (4/8). The remaining
activities included online research projects (2/8) and ecological
observation activities not linked to an established participatory
science project (2/8).
