  2. What is citizen science? “You don't have to work in a laboratory or wear a white coat to be a scientist. In fact, you don't even have to have any formal training. Average citizens are getting involved in the scientific process every day by participating in citizen science, a movement in which volunteers are helping professional scientists collect and analyze data. This mobilization of volunteers allows a wide range of data to be collected quickly.” http://money.howstuffworks.com/economics/volunteer/information/citizen-science.htm

  3. Why citizen science? “Participating in a citizen-science project helps advance scientific discovery, enhances your personal discoveries… and contributes to better understanding…” http://www.allaboutbirds.org/page.aspx?pid=1162 • The potential in citizen science is that participation allows you to apply what you are learning about in class and be a part of large-scale research projects!
