Citizen science involves collective efforts that produce discoveries that scientists cannot achieve alone. Through project-based learning, students will become familiar with academic and gray literature across disciplines about citizen science and other forms of participatory research such as community mapping, volunteer monitoring, crowdsourcing, participatory sensing, and community-driven science. Students will critically examine ethical, legal, and emergent issues, and analyze theory and practice with particular attention to data quality, informal science learning, and democratization of science in society.
