Using Citizen Science for Student Research Projects Meri Johnson merijohnson26@gmail.com www.curriculumengineers.com

How Familiar are you with Citizen Science? I have… actively participated in a project had students participate by collecting data had students collect data and do research with the data heard of citizen science, but never participated never heard of citizen science

What is Citizen Science? Citizen science Is research collaborations between scientists and volunteers. Often to expand opportunities for scientific data collection and to provide access to scientific information for community members.

Citizen Science

Provides an opportunities for students to do authentic research Why Citizen Science? Provides an opportunities for students to do authentic research

Why Citizen Science? Provides learning opportunities that would not happen in the regular classroom

Why Citizen Science? Provides real and long term data

Instills stewardship of the environment as a core value Why Citizen Science? Instills stewardship of the environment as a core value

How do I find Citizen Science Programs? LOCAL STATEWIDE NATIONAL GLOBAL

LOCAL: Cincinnati Nature Center Count the Catepillars Research questions your data help us answer include: Are caterpillars more abundant on certain tree species over others? Does the peak abundance of caterpillars vary from year to year, and has it been changing with climate? Does the peak abundance of caterpillars coincide with the time when birds are raising their young?
