Choose a Project [Feb. 18, 2012, 8:21 a.m.]



There are many scientific projects that need the support of citizen scientists. The use of citizen-science networks often allows scientists to accomplish research objectives that would otherwise take much longer to achieve or at greater cost.

You can learn about many of these projects here http://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Project_list

Study the list of projects carefully, and choose the one you wish you to support. Remember that when you do join that project you are joining a community.

When you have chosen a project post a response on this task, and in that response:

  1. Identify the project you have chosen to support
  2. Explain why you chose this project?
  3. Explain how this project will benefit from your contribution?
