How can #CitizenScience be used as a tool for #Education - particularly in terms of #AustralianCurriculum? "Projects need to be mapped to the Australian curriculum," says @LBDScience's @krscroggie Workshop C #CitSciOz21
Citizen science as a tool for education gives students awareness which leads to excitement and meaningful experiences. Citizen science can build a community, generate knowledge, add to learning and develop student's skills.

By far, learning was the most frequently reported advantage for #student participation by #CitSci project leaders but some of these other hidden advantages are what really make #CitizenScience participation so special powerful!

Replying to @LBDScience
With #learning as a common advantage described from student #CitSci participation, it takes many forms & crosses disciplinary boundaries. #CitizenScience is perceived to increase awareness & excitement of science, develop scientific skills and scientific thinking.

Excitement was mentioned as a factor that motivates and engages students because #CitizenScience is a novel method to learn in many classrooms. One project leader even said, "bringing citizen science into the #classroom is really exciting and empowering and engaging."

Another one of my favourite advantages is "Future in Science." Students get to experience what #Scientists do, as well as experience careers and universities through participation, and was said to increase their interest in science careers! 👩‍🔬

We are looking for Australian school teachers to take part in one of our research surveys! If you have 10 minutes, please let us know how you use 'hands-on learning' in your classrooms. 🧑‍🏫📚👩‍🔬 #Teaching #aussieED bit.ly/LearnHandsOn
Image of students at river bank. Text: National Teacher Survey. We are conducting research into 'hands-on learning' in Australian schools. Current primary and high school teachers can participate by completing an up to 10 min online survey. Visit bit.ly/LearnHandsOn. Please share with others who may be interested. This research is being conducted as part of the Learning By Doin project, by the University of Sydney.

At #LearningByDoing, we have two Honours research students and one of them is @ciarkenn and she is looking into #CitizenScience in #education and #SocialMedia. She is also an animal lover!
A photo ID card of Ciara Kenneally from The University of Sydney. The card has a photo of Ciara in a turquoise cami top with yellow flowers in the background and her photo is framed in a dark green lanyard. Her research interests are citizen science in education & social media. Her favourite citizen science project is iNaturalist. Fun facts about her state: I love animals and have a cat, dog, and about 10 fish! There are three waves coloured cyan, green and earth red at the right side of the card.

I've been talking to some amazing people for this research, but I'm still looking for a couple more people to participate! If you have any leads or know anyone, please share it around, or contact me at olivia.mcrae@sydney.edu.au 💃
White text on a blue background that reads have you performed in a science-themed improv show? Get in touch to help us out with a research study. Underneath, there are four different groups of 2 to 3 people interacting in different ways as if improvising. These people are facing each other to talk, or look like they're dancing together.
