Promoting awareness about marine biological invasions through educational games
Understanding public perceptions toward invasive species in different parts of Europe
Understanding public attitudes toward invasive species is crucial to curtail the reasons for their introduction and to increase the effectiveness of control measures. A questionnaire was distributed in three European countries (Italy, Spain and United Kingdom) to evaluate public attitudes on the problems posed by invasive species, their perception of the impacts and their willingness to introduce and support management actions. People whose occup…
Boosting adults scientific literacy with experiential learning practices
Working as an interdisciplinary team, from the departments of Education and Biology we organized a short experiential learning seminar followed by a hands-on workshop for the promotion of citizen scientific literacy. Participants were adult lifelong learners enrolled in University programs, and others were adults interested in scientific activities without a motivation towards continuous learning. Through a teaching dynamic based on learning scie…
Game-based learning for engaging citizens in biopollution control
Citizens are essential for safeguarding ecosystems from biopollutants, but raising the population’s awareness of the problem through the communication of scientific discoveries about biological invasions is still a challenge. Here, we have assayed an interdisciplinary game-based method of recognizing the invasive pygmy mussel Xenosotrobus securis for volunteers of different age groups, we have measured their learning gain and engagement, and we h…
Exploring Changes in Biodiversity Through Pictures
To accurately document the accelerated changes in biodiversity, scientists need an accurate historic baseline to which to compare the current state of a locale. These historic baselines are hard to come by, and specifically in the coastal principality of Asturias (northern Spain), biodiversity information before 1980 is scarce, fragmented, or entirely lacking. However, most families still keep old photographs, and we wondered if these historic do…
Treponemal disease in the Old World? Integrated palaeopathological assessment of a 9th–11th century skeleton from north-central Spain
The hypothesis of an American origin of acquired (venereal) syphilis and other \ninfectious diseases carried by Christopher Columbus’s crew has been \nconsidered for a long time as the most plausible one, and has been supported \nrecently by considerable anthropological and molecular evidence. In this line of \nthought, it can be argued that Spain would have been the gateway of acquired \nsyphilis, which quickly expanded after the return of Colum…
