What else is in it for me and the students?

Ranger Vision offers a fun way to get your students outdoors, learning about and helping map biodiversity.

  • Ranger Vision can share your students' sightings with the national and global biodiversity databases for the purpose of environmental research and conservation. 

  • It's great way to get your students engaging directly with nature, while contributing to scientific research and teaching them the fundamentals of biological classification, taxonomy, and the scientific method.
