Examining Engagement and Science Identity through Participation

Overview October 28, 2022

Project Duration

2012-2017

Location

United States

Background

How can we broaden participation in science across diverse communities? Our researchers are collaborating with Cornell Lab of Ornithology to investigate how and why people from different backgrounds engage with different forms of citizen science, and what they get out of that experience. Funded by the National Science Foundation, this research will help thousands of ISE practitioners and program developers to design projects that achieve the greatest impacts for both new and existing audiences.
