[Libs-Or] A New Citizen Science Course

[Michele Spatz]

Greetings!
              Our NNLM Region 1 colleagues at the University of Maryland Baltimore have developed some exciting virtual programming about Citizen Science called "Citizen Science: Gearing Up for Discovery".

"Citizen Science: Gearing Up for Discovery" is an asynchronous, free course that builds skills in nonscientists who may want to implement or participate in a citizen science project. It is uniquely focused on health-related projects in environmental health and public health. Enroll now!<http://www.edx.org/course/citizen-science-gearing-up-for-discovery> You can start at any time and work at your own pace.

"Citizen Science: Gearing Up for Discovery" is meant for anyone interested in applying a citizen science approach to addressing health issues in communities. The course's five modules cover the following topics:

  *   Citizen Science Overview
  *   Project Planning
  *   Collecting Data
  *   Managing Data
  *   Communicating Results
