Popis: | Citizen science gets increasing recognition for its potential to democratize science and support environmental governance. In this paper we present our experiences and lessons learned from a set of 'extreme' citizen science initiatives in developing countries, where data collection applications are used to support low-literate people in identifying solutions to issues that are of significant local concern. This paper aims to bring to the attention of the HCI community of developments in extreme citizen science and contribute knowledge to the field of HCI4D, especially to research studies which concern the design and use of smartphones for low-literate users. |
