#CitizenScience is cool, and I'm curious to see if there's such a thing for outside of the sciences.
Are any of you familiar with any groups that support #CitizenScholars, or scholarly work and conduct among persons outside of #academia?
@arturovm "Citizen science (CS; also known as community science, crowd science, crowd-sourced science, civic science, volunteer monitoring, or networked science) is scientific research conducted, in whole or in part, by amateur (or nonprofessional) scientists." [Wikipedia article]
@bthall and RE #citizenscience, have you seen this site?
@PonderingCreek No I hadn't; I'm quite new to looking into CS, but I've been curious about the matter of inquiry along the laity for a while. 😊 I'll check this out once I get to campus. 💌
@PonderingCreek
Thank you again for this link. 💌
@bthall Not quite sure if this is what you are looking for, but Zooniverse has a number of project outside of the sciences: arts, literature, history, social sciences... https://www.zooniverse.org/projects
@bthall the only things I can quickly think of are various genealogic efforts and citizen history as noted in this article:
