Benefits
Often at times, people are unaware of the scientific importance of a location, even if it is a place near where they live. This is a perfect activity to spark curiosity and to deliver content in an informal and friendly way.
Preparations
- Decide on the route, and what is going to be highlighted
- Write a script, the stories you want to tell, and the content you wish to share.
- Choose an experienced facilitator
- Consider a start and an ending point that allows you to create a satisfying narrative, with a good introduction and ending.
- Try and make the route circular if possible.
Notes
Take into account the constraints of bad weather and consider using a portable microphone depending on the level of noise around you.
Avoid crowded points or intersections with traffic.
