About Arboretum

Dear visitor

"I would not think, the Sun could rise,

if there were not any trees and birds." Imre Horváth

 

Our project's title is Virtual Study Trail. The general aim of our research project is to extend knowledge of and draw attention to natural sciences. We would like to explore our city's Arborétum especially the herbs which are natural and have a healing power . By classifying the herbs native in the Arboretum, we intend to obtain deeper and practical knowledge about plant taxonmy.
This kind of interdisciplinary appoarch provides the opportunity to gain and integrate extensive knowledge well beyond the general secondary school curriculum.
We thought that creating a virtual study trail to introduce the area- on multimedia device with internet access, simulanting a visior walking along the trail would be an exciting new perspective.
We 've identified the herbs and made the descriptions. Photos have also been taken. There are autumn pictures with bird songs or music, winter pictures with music and summer pictures with bird songs. Spring pictures have also been taken. While we were making our project, we used a digital camera, and a voice recorder to take pictures and make the recordings, and we edited the photos as well as some pictures from reference books. The webpage has already been designed, the English version has been made as well.
 Please have a look at the website and explore the Virtual study trail yourself.
On our stand you can see some pictures, figures and details of our project.
