FAppE
2021

In this application you will find nineteen sedimentary and volcanic stones located in the Arboretum, specifically, in the Geological walk of Bizkaia located in the Basque Public University (UPV) located in Lejona (Vizcaya). The Arboretum is a botanical park with educational and recreational purposes that is open to all citizens. Inside this botanical park we can find several activities such as an amphitheatre, the Basque language spiral, the forest of life, etc. The Arboretum route is a dynamic, fun and interesting path. Thanks to this path you can get to know nature, different types of stones and trees. As
for the path, it has very beautiful views and when the day is sunny you can see the whole of Erandio and Lejona. This is not a complicated path that only a few people can follow, but
rather a path that anyone can feel comfortable on, it is very easy to follow and has no obstacles to make it difficult to walk.
These stones are placed in such a way that they can be visited in order, knowing their peculiar characteristics and the history of each one of them, as each one has an informative plaque that shows its name, type of rock, approximate age in millions of years, the place where it was collected and, if applicable, the company that provided the specimen.
With this application you will be able to learn more about each rock in a more dynamic and interactive way. The application, in principle, is aimed mainly at children who come from schools to visit the Arboretum. However, the application will be available to anyone who wants to visit the Arboretum, as it will show a map that will make it easier for visitors to find their way around. In addition, our application contains explanatory audios, videos, images and a long questionnaire with which to learn in a participatory and fun way.
This application is designed by four students from the faculty of Bilbao, specifically from the degree in Early Childhood Education and created by a student of Telecommunications Engineering.
