Hey citizen scientists if you've spotted the #Aurora, report it to aurorasaurus.org! It's crowdsourcing aurora location and intensity data.
#AuroraBorealis
#AuroraAustralis
«Quantifying the self with others» looks at the particular #CitizenScience community that is #PersonalScience / #quantifiedself.
«This community cultivated useful conversations about personal health data, the sorts of participatory “reflection and dialogue” needed to achieve “a shared vision” for these technologies, through specific communication techniques that integrated personal and community goals or transcended them by marshalling an open science data imaginary.»

Reminder: for the AutSPACEs #citizenscience project we got a paid #mastoart opportunity. 🧑🎨 The project is by & for a community of #actuallyautistic people to gather data on sensory processing experiences in daily life. 📚
We are looking for a freelance illustrator/graphic designer to create a couple of accessible illustrations for the project. We would particularly love to work with someone with lived experience.

SD: How can we meet all of these changes? And is #citizenscience as a label expansive enough? #ecsa2024
If any of this makes sense to you, feel free to contribute to Teilnamer:in - a #hack4socialgood project in support of #citizenscience and #eparticipation - currently at the brainstorming…
Lea Den Broeder and Annemarie Wagemakers on lessons learned from COVID on #citizenscience in community health promotion. Including lessons the “Citizen Science 4 Health” community collected at our conference.
Stresses accessibility of approaches and places, focusing on people’s needs and connecting the community. #ecsa2024
I also enjoyed 'Dark citizen science' by James Riley and Will Mason-Wilkes, proposing the 'Five-Ps of citizen science' (Purpose, Process, Perceptibility, Power and Public Effect) and comparing Galaxy Zoo and reCAPTCHA.
Also they cover my minor obsession since 2014 or so: 'when projects are coupled with AI, citizen scientists may be clicking their active roles into the grave'
The #CitizenScience 4 Health working group (https://www.ecsa.ngo/working-groups/citizen-science-for-health/) met today to discuss the theme of our citizen science for health conference next year, our working methods as a group, and our external communication. Now for the main conference tomorrow!
I have a really hard time to get excited about the question of "how can #citizenscience inform policy?", given how policy mostly seems to happily ignore facts, regardless of who produces the knowledge 🙈 #ecsa2024
Heading to Vienna for the conference of the European #CitizenScience Association. #ecsa2024

Had a great afternoon at #CollabW24
First we had a great discussion about #CitizenScience and how research software engineers can contribute to it, followed by a mini-workshop on "community co-creation" that my colleagues Georgia Aitkenhead, @… and I co-facilitated.
And rounding it out now with Lucy Robinson talking on "creating advocates through community science".

Attending the #SSI's #CollabW24 online today and tomorrow. This year #CitizenScience is one of the topics, so lots of fun program to look forward to. Including a mini-workshop we're organising this afternoon on community co-creation.

Now on the blog of the Software Sustainability Institute: My blog post on last year's #citizenscience for health conference #cs4h at the University of Twente. https://www.software.ac.uk/blog/software-co-design-citizen-science-4-health-conference

Coming hot on the heels of #AIUK: tomorrow I’ll speak at this event on responsible “AI” in a session on transparency (though it’ll really be about participation and #citizenscience) https://www.responsible-ai.science/
We've finished revising our manuscript describing how we co-designed the content #moderation approach for the AutSPACEs #citizenscience platform. The feedback in the reviews really improved it!
The updated preprint is at https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/c2xe7

Fellow AutSPACEs team member Georgia & I wrote a blog post for the Software Sustainability Institute. We outline how we are approaching user testing for our co-designed #citizenscience platform on sensory processing and #autism.
It's great timing, as we're currently running the second round of tests after having (hopefully) improved the platform!

Friday afternoon maybe isn't the best time to share it, but I'm too excited! Our work on creating a shared knowledge base for self research & #quantifiedself is now up as a preprint:
«Co-Designing a wiki-based community knowledge management system for #personalscience»
Katharina – who defended her PhD in November – did amazing work on co-designing and user testing it with a wide range of practitioners! Read it here: #citizenscience

As Monday morning might be a better time to share than Friday afternoons: Check out our latest preprint on creating a shared knowledge base for #selfresearch, #personalscience & #quantifiedself. Katharina did a really great job on co-designing and testing the "Personal Science Wiki" with practitioners to make sure it fits their mental models of the practice!
