在英国寻找私人花园作为环境参与的主要场所，我们探讨了一个长期的在线公民科学方案如何促进了对自然的新的个人依恋的发展。这些都是显而易见的，表现在对野生动物友好的园艺做法的新的或重新的兴趣，以及很大一部分参与者的态度转变。通过访谈、焦点小组、调查和记录用户行为收集的定性和定量数据显示，培养对物种识别的兴趣是“帮助自然”和更广泛学习的关键，该计划创造了一个科学和非科学知识可以共存并相互加强的空间。
Identifying private gardens in the U.K. as key sites of environmental engagement, we look at how a longer-term online citizen science programme facilitated the development of new and personal attachments of nature. These were visible through new or renewed interest in wildlife-friendly gardening practices and attitudinal shifts in a large proportion of its participants. Qualitative and quantitative data, collected via interviews, focus groups, surveys and logging of user behaviours, revealed that cultivating a fascination with species identification was key to both 'helping nature' and wider learning, with the programme creating a space where scientific and non-scientific knowledge could co-exist and reinforce one another.
