Simply defined, crowdsourcing represents the act
of a company or institution taking a function once
performed by employees and outsourcing it to an
undefined (and generally large) network of people
in the form of an open call. This can take the form
of peer-production (when the job is performed
collaboratively), but is also often undertaken by
sole individuals. The crucial prerequisite is the
use of the open call format and the large network
of potential laborers.

Crowdsourcing in Education
• access to a potentially global range and diversity of locations,
opinions and problem-solving options; provides a means of voicing
opinions that otherwise would not be shared; brings together
communities of interest and concern (Paulin & Haythornthwaite,
2016)
• assimilate many small contributions into resources of high quality
(Cornelli & Mikroyannidis, 2012)
• offers new ways of envisioning student involvement in the
classroom (c/f students as producers) (Hills, 2015)
• dissemination, negotiation and evaluation of scholarship
