      abstract     = {Learning biology, and in particular systematics, requires
                      learning a substantial amount of specific vocabulary, both
                      for botanical and zoological studies. While crucial, the
                      precise identification of structures serving as evolutionary
                      traits and systematic criteria is not per se a highly
                      motivating task for students. Teaching this in a traditional
                      teaching setting is quite challenging especially with a
                      large crowd of students to be kept engaged. This is even
                      more difficult if, as during the COVID‐19 crisis, students
                      are not allowed to access laboratories for hands‐on
                      observation on fresh specimens and sometimes restricted to
                      short‐range movements outside their home. Here, we present
                      QuoVidi, a new open‐source web platform for the
                      organization of large‐scale treasure hunts. The platform
                      works as follows: students, organized in teams, receive a
                      list of quests that contain morphologic, ecologic, or
                      systematic terms. They have to first understand the meaning
                      of the quests, then go and find them in the environment.
                      Once they find the organism corresponding to a quest, they
                      upload a geotagged picture of their finding and submit this
                      on the platform. The correctness of each submission is
                      evaluated by the staff. During the COVID‐19 lockdown,
                      previously validated pictures were also submitted for
                      evaluation to students that were locked in
                      low‐biodiversity areas. From a research perspective, the
                      system enables the creation of large image databases by the
                      students, similar to citizen science projects. Beside the
                      enhanced motivation of students to learn the vocabulary and
                      perform observations on self‐found specimens, this system
                      allows instructors to remotely follow and assess the work
                      performed by large numbers of students. The interface is
                      freely available, open‐source and customizable. Unlike
                      existing naturalist platforms, allows the educators to fully
                      customize the quests of interest. This enables the creation
                      of multiple teaching scenarios, without being bound to a
                      fixed scope. QuoVidi can be used in other disciplines with
                      adapted quests and we expect it to be of interest in many
                      classroom settings.},
