One of the first steps in discovering and understanding biodiversity is to identify the organisms around us. Traditionally, this has been done using paper-printed keys which enable us to correctly name an organism. Most of them, however, are "difficult" and hardly usable for educational purposes.

They are available on a variety of platforms including laptops and mobile phones, some of them can be tailored to individual requirements. The project mobilizes 14 partners from 11 EU countries, including leading centres in biology, pedagogy, education, and information technology.

Computer terminals offer the opportunity for further individual in-depth research. ... [Information of the supplier]
