Title
Gaming for Science: A Demo of Online Experiments on VolunteerScience.com.
Abstract
New information technologies are changing the way science is done. Programs like Zooniverse, Fold.It, and SciStarter demonstrate the power of recruiting online volunteers as participants and contributors to research. Platforms like Project Implicit and Volunteer Science confirm that a wide range of social scientific research can be conducted with volunteers in online laboratories. This demonstration will enable attendees of CSCW 2016 a chance to interact with the Volunteer Science system by participating in experiments, browsing the experiment creation platform, and discuss online experiments with the designers and developers of the system.
