You don’t need any specialised background, training, or expertise to participate in any Zooniverse projects. It makes it easy for anyone to contribute to real academic research, on their own computer, at their own convenience.

You'd be able to study authentic objects of interest gathered by researchers, like images of faraway galaxies, historical records and diaries, or videos of animals in their natural habitats. By answering simple questions about them, you’ll help contribute to our understanding of our world, our history, our Universe, and more.

This helps scientists know more about galaxies, stars, seas and the nature around us and you'll get the satisfaction of knowing you helpeed for future generations to come.

With the wide-ranging and ever-expanding suite of projects, covering many disciplines and topics across the sciences and humanities, there's a place for anyone and everyone to explore, learn and have fun in the Zooniverse. To volunteer with them, just go to the Projects page, choose one you like the look of, and get started. It's a real bonus to do and you'll get a boost of energy from your pride.

If it helps, gaze at the projects and about page for more information to get started. What should delay you?

Working along with Zooniverse projects and students incorporating the English Language creates enthusiasm among the learners, as much as adult would find how interesting the Zooniverse projects are, the learners too are exploring it with curiosity

The Zooniverse platform will be offline for scheduled maintenance on Wednesday, November 20 from 4pm-10pm US Central Standard Time (2024-11-20 22:00 UTC to 2024-11-21 4:00 UTC). During this period, all projects and platform services will be inaccessible. We apologize for the inconvenience; this maintenance is necessary to make updates to platform infrastructure and improve long-term reliability and uptime. Please visit status.zooniverse.org for updates before and during the downtime period. For any questions, please email contact@zooniverse.org.

Perhaps it would help to email contact@zooniverse.org .

@Clgurbin, tips for the Planet Hunters project are more likely to reach people who can use them if you post them on the Planet Hunters Talk page rather than here on the general Zooniverse Talk page.

I’m just speaking from about a year of experience volunteering on this platform and reading through various threads.

I think it will be nearly impossible to get a public zooniverse project because the reviewing process is very strict to ensure that volunteer time is not wasted and the whole process will probably take longer than the usual timeframe for a science fair project.

However I definitely think it’s possible to have a private project built and you can then share the link to the whole school or wherever (Might okay to share on this TALK forum as well? Not sure if it’s against any rules). Here’s the link to Zooniverse’s project builder. Here’s also a few links to some guides for using the project builder:

If you want to join the activity described in the very first post (Page 1 of this discussion) over a year ago, as I understand it that has already happened. The original poster has not returned to the discussion.

If you want to join Zooniverse as a citizen scientist, look at the many projects via the Projects link top left, then read the directions and go for it.

I am an undergraduate student and I want to learn about the basic tools used in astronomy how can I individually access the classroom and the study material?
