Abstract

Key Points
⋅ Report on implementation of MOOCs to scale participation in rigorous citizen science
⋅ GROW MOOCs train participants on soil sensor use, complete nutrient testing and land & soil surveys
⋅ GROW “citizen scientist” approach offers learning on methods design, data collection and awareness
⋅ Social learning approaches may overcome common barriers to engagement and training for protocols
