Natural Europe was a project that aimed to connect digital collections from European natural history museums to Europeana and develop educational pathways through the collections. The project enriched digital objects with metadata to create customizable, learning-oriented discovery services online. It also studied educational methods and tools to allow educators to design innovative online pathways through museum collections.

- Natural Europe combines inquiry-based model with cultural content from museums of Natural History provide educational pathways within the museums. Additionally it makes them available through web 2.0 tools and under open licenses for them to be reused from stakeholders around the world. Overall, Natural Europe is also following the developments of similar projects that work in the same thematic areas such as OpenUp!, BHL Europe, etc. 15/11/11
- Natural Europe’s vision is to place museum visitors in the centre of an exhibition that is both physical & virtual, meaning that it can be accessed from distance as well with the use of technology, supporting services that allow for learning and cultural content distribution. This content will be used by museum visitors and educators to provide personalized educational experiences through the notion of a learning pathway. Combining all the aforementioned approaches, we aim at bringing forward a change in the way museum education is conducted worldwide. 15/11/11
- The Natural Europe architecture is comprised from two main components, namely the Natural Europe Education Federation and the Natural Europe Cultural Federation. The Educational part of the architecture contains that repositories that store learning pathways created from museum educators, teachers and the public and the learning resources that are used within these pathways (described with IEEE LOM metadata). This repository is connected (through OAI-PMH) with external repositories with content that can be used in Natural Europe pathways (LRE for schools, Organic.Edunet, ARIADNE, Europeana). It is also connected to a Pathway Template repository which will contain templates for pathways. Access to all the educational content will be given (providing a faceted search mechanism) through the Educational Faceted Search interface (upper right). On top of that, each museum website will be enhanced with a Pathway Player – a specific installation in each NHM website – that will allow visitors to open pathways and study them, directly the museums’ websites. The Natural Europe Cultural Federation contains a repository providing access to cultural heritage objects coming from the Natural History Museums of the project. Each museum partner has his own instance of the tool (bottom – middle) where all the cultural content of the museum is stored. This content is exposed to Europeana through OAI-PMH but also to the Natural Europe Federation in general so that parts of the content can be used through the Pathway Tool in creating Learning Pathways. Finally, the project will set up a couple of interactive exhibits in museums participating in the project that will take advantage of the deployed pathways and the cultural content of the museums to offer a novel way of navigating through the museums’ exhibition (upper right). 15/11/11
