This figure shows an overview of the components of our open-source citizen science platform architecture. In this article, we use the conventional term ”researchers” to describe the group that runs the research projects and need to collect data, and ”participants” to describe the group that collects the data and contribute to the project using a citizen science platform or app. However, for novice participants, it is often not as easy to understand some new phenomena or entities in real life just by following a set of instructions or tutorials. At present, it is expected that the participants already have these skill sets, or they can quickly develop these by following a set of instructions or tutorials. To effectively engage in citizen science projects, the participants often need to develop skills for detecting, identifying, and annotating phenomena or entities from visual inputs. Increasingly, citizen science platforms are going mobile with emerging technologies and shifting paradigms.
For example, when using iNaturalist, an app that anyone can download on their phone, people collect data and learn about plant or animal species. Researchers can collect data that they otherwise would not be able to while the participants learn about the subject they are engaged with. Citizen science benefits both the researchers and the people engaged in it. Citizen science is a special type of crowdsourcing, where the participants contribute to or collect data for scientific research projects. If you find you’re falling short of your dreams set new goals to transfer to your dream school in 2019 and graduate with your peers.Crowdsourcing is a distributed task assignment model where large groups of paid or unpaid participants submit their works, typically some form of data, using the internet, social media, and smartphone apps. We are blessed in California with a top tier community college system, one of the best in the nation. Please be supportive of those who are not receiving the news they had hoped and encourage your friends to set new goals. This is an exciting time of year for many for others it’s a time to set new goals and the path to attain them.
