智能手机户外助手App在药用植物野外实践教学中的应用

Application of Smartphone Outdoor Assistant App in Field Practice Teaching of Medicinal Botany

摘要: 药用植物野外实践教学是药学、中药学等专业不可或缺的实践教学环节，承担着训练学生野外识别药用植物、标本采集制作、生境调查记录等核心教学任务。传统野外实习模式存在实习路线管控难度大、药用植物生境地理信息记录较为粗放、学生分组作业安全风险较高、实习过程性资料留存不足、实习成果数字化水平偏低等问题。智能手机户外助手(两步路户外助手)具备离线地图浏览、行进轨迹记录、兴趣点标记、多媒体信息挂载、轨迹文件导出分享等功能，能够将地理位置信息和药用植物野外调查记录有机结合，可覆盖实习前期筹备、野外现场教学、实习结束后资料整理全教学流程。本文结合药用植物野外实习的实际教学场景，阐述户外助手App核心功能，系统探究其在实习路线规划设计、药用植物生境定位、野外安全管控、数字化标本信息采集、多元过程性考核等方面的具体实施方案，同时剖析该工具应用的优势与现存局限，提出对应的教学实施策略，为药用植物野外实习数字化教学改革提供实践参考。

Abstract: Field practice in medicinal botany studies is an essential component of practical education for pharmacy and traditional Chinese medicine programs, responsible for training students in identifying medicinal plants in the wild, collecting and preparing specimens, and conducting habitat surveys and documentation. Traditional field internship models face several challenges, including difficulties in managing field routes, coarse recording of geographical information on medicinal plant habitats, high safety risks associated with student group activities, insufficient preservation of process-related data, and low levels of digitalization in internship outcomes. The smartphone-based outdoor assistant App (2bulu Outdoor Assistant) offers features such as offline map browsing, route tracking, point-of-interest marking, multimedia attachment, and trajectory file export and sharing. It effectively integrates geographical information with field records of medicinal plants, supporting the entire teaching process—from pre-internship preparation to on-site instruction and post-internship data organization. This paper, based on real-world teaching scenarios in medicinal plant field internships, outlines the core functions of the outdoor assistant App and systematically explores its specific applications in route planning and design, habitat location identification, field safety management, digital specimen data collection, and diversified formative assessment. It also analyzes the advantages and current limitations of this tool, proposes corresponding teaching strategies, and provides practical references for digital reform in medicinal plant field education.
