EDUCATION, ENGAGEMENT, AND CITIZEN SCIENCE
Citizen science projects aim to engage the public in interactive, online, science-based activities. They offer fun learning opportunities and real-life contributions to active scientific research projects. These projects usually require nothing more than a computer and access to the internet. Tutorials are offered to get you started, and it’s always recommended you create an account and sign in each time you participate so you can track your work and (possible!) discoveries.
