mApp雅典
Background
A keystone of the 俄亥俄州 博物馆复杂, mApp雅典 is a web-based app for self-guided education. The name reflects the idea of a mapping app for 雅典 and the surrounding community: Map + App + 雅典 = mApp雅典.
Curated by 俄亥俄州 professor 南希·史蒂文斯, this interdisciplinary collaborative project offers online maps that can be leveraged as outdoor museum tours to engage visitors of all ages in active, place-based learning experiences to explore an array of topics including art, 健康, 历史, 地质, 生态, 和更多的.
Below are suggested place-based learning routes that have been provided by local experts. 探索 these tours throughout the region using your mobile device; you will travel from stop to stop, reading information at each location and following the directions provided. You will see photos and a map of your tour route in the app.
活跃的旅游
在下面选择你的冒险. 一旦你的旅行开始, 点击向下箭头(或在某些情况下), select a grey tab) to begin the self-guided route. For the app to function correctly, you will need either cellular service or internet access. Keep in mind that your cell signal may drop during one of the walks, but we have included photos and directions to help you. If your signal does drop, try to enjoy the scenery and follow the trail on the app. 最重要的是，玩得开心!
注:适用于行动不便的人士, the accessible option is to click through the tours virtually instead of in person.
