Think citizen science is unreliable, simplistic, or just free labor? Think again.

Citizen science is often misunderstood—and myths hold it back. But in fact:

✅ Citizens drive breakthroughs in genomics, astrophysics, and beyond.
✅ It's not unpaid labor; it's meaningful co-creation.
✅ Scientists remain firmly responsible for quality and rigor.

Knowledge management (KM) transcends mere data storage or file management, focusing instead on creating, sharing, and utilizing knowledge. Yet, KM is frequently misunderstood as a technology-driven process centered solely on information management, rather than a sense-making approach that emphasizes learning and idea development.
