We have developed OpenForest portal in University of Eastern Finland Savonlinna Campus during last 5 years. OpenForest is an open portal for forest education. You can find and share forest-related scientific information, art, experiences, learning projects, geographic information and learning objects in OpenForest. You can include geographic information for the locations, so that they can be found on the map.
You can find a selection of Wiki articles in English (new November 2013!). Translating work has started and there is few contents in English. Welcome to visit our portal. Translating is going on and new contents will be publish soon.
The goal of the portal is to expand the learning environment beyond the classroom. The portal includes contents that are categorised under forest research, learning, culture and nature and are linked to material contributed by the participants in the “Forest as a Learning Environment” project. They introduce, for example, projects carried out in teacher training and basic education, research in the arboretum and the esker area, as well as the unique natural attractions at Punkaharju. The portal also offers a virtual trail in the arboretum and the esker area with 360° views (Flash is needed). The portal can also be accessed by mobile devices, and you can navigate to the locations provided with geographic information and view the contents related to them by, for example, using a mobile phone.
