Accomplishing Outreach, Engagement & Facilitating Learning: A Digital Application for the Wilma H. Schiermeier Olentangy River Wetland Research Park

Course Code: ENR 2367The Wilma H. Schiermeier Olentangy River Wetland Research Park (ORWRP) is world-renowned, but few people in the Columbus area choose to visit the research facility. In order to address the lack of visitation at the ORWRP and increase the public's understanding of wetlands ecosystems, this project proposes the development of an interactive smartphone application. The application will serve as a self-guided tour of the park that focuses on communicating the functions and importance of wetland ecosystems.Academic Major: Agribusiness and Applied EconomicsAcademic Major: Environment, Economy, Development, and Sustainabilit
