With Youth-focused Citizen and Community Science (YCCS), youth
contribute to authentic science. They can do this through data
collection, but also interpreting or sharing findings. But what
does this mean for science learning? To answer this question, we
began conducting case studies with YCCS projects in Northern
California and bringing together key stakeholders to explore when
and how YCCS works best.
You can learn more about our findings and recommendations
at Key
Practices and Resources. Delve into YCCS
practices in the project Case Studies, and explore a
range of projects that people are doing with youth in the
“Explore
Projects” tool.
