Literature on Citizen Science

One of the amazing things about citizen science is that you--yes, you--are contributing to authentic scientific research! And that research often gets published. Here is where you will find links to published research on citizen science... some articles discuss a project's scientific results; others discuss citizen science (and citizen scientists!), investigating things like learning and motivation. Dive in, look around, and if you have an article to add, please let us know!
