“…In this regard, our study further illustrates how crowdsourcing can bring together communities of interest and concern (Paulin & Haythornthwaite, 2016). It also contributes to a growing body of literature illustrating how crowdsourcing can fulfil the old adage that the whole is often greater than the sum of its parts (Pionke, 2013) and on the motivational factors that underpin participants' engagement with crowdsourcing (Feng, Ye, Yu, Yang, & Cui, 2018;Zhao & Zhu, 2014).…”

“…Likewise, gamification has become a focus of much attention for education in recent times (Dicheva, Dichev, Agre, & Angelova, 2015), particularly with regard to motivation and engagement factors associated with the use of game-based strategies in teaching and learning (van Roy & Zaman, 2018). These issues of competition and gamification have also been of interest with regard to crowdsourcing (Feng et al, 2018). Morschheuser, Hamari, Koivisto, and Maedche (2017), for instance, proposed that crowdsourcing platforms are increasingly imbued with motivational design features borrowed from games (gamification) due to crowdsourcing's success requiring a body of motivated crowdsourcees, and that we are witnessing the emergence of an "interwoven phenomena of gamification and crowdsourcing" (p. 38).…”

This paper reports on a distinctive one-year online open crowdsourcing initiative which originated in the Republic of Ireland with a view to compiling an A–Z directory of educational technology tools for teaching and learning. Through analysis of multiple sources of data, the paper presents an intrinsic case study which outlines the design and implementation of the initiative and offers critical insights into engagement and participation in the project. The study found that participants from across the spectrum of educational sectors contributed to this project from a range of geographical locations, with significantly greater numbers engaging with the directory of educational technology tools that resulted from the crowdsourcing activity. It concludes that the creative project design, combined with a novel crowdsourcing methodology encompassing elements of collaboration, competition, and gamification, were strong motivational factors for participation. The case study provides a valuable context for considering the wider potential of this particular crowdsourcing format (and crowdsourcing applications in general) for teaching and learning purposes.

“…When a project or application gives their users feedback regarding their contributions, it may make their users believe that their efforts are recognized and valued. This will prompt users to reciprocate by more actively participating in crowdsourcing tasks and may make them feel indebted to the crowdsourcing project resulting in even more participation [67]. Research has shown that crowdsourcing initiatives with more visible feedback had longer and more sustained participation [68].…”

Capturing the City’s Heritage On-the-Go: Design Requirements for Mobile Crowdsourced Cultural Heritage

Intangible Cultural Heritage is at a continuous risk of extinction. Where historical artefacts engine the machinery of intercontinental mass-tourism, socio-technical changes are reshaping the anthropomorphic landscapes everywhere on the globe, at an unprecedented rate. There is an increasing urge to tap into the hidden semantics and the anecdotes surrounding people, memories and places. The vast cultural knowledge made of testimony, oral history and traditions constitutes a rich cultural ontology tying together human beings, times, and situations. Altogether, these complex, multidimensional features make the task of data-mapping of intangible cultural heritage a problem of sustainability and preservation. This paper addresses a suggested route for conceiving, designing and appraising a digital framework intended to support the conservation of the intangible experience, from a user and a collective-centred perspective. The framework is designed to help capture the intangible cultural value of all places exhibiting cultural-historical significance, supported by an extensive analysis of the literature. We present a set of design recommendations for designing mobile apps that are intended to converge crowdsourcing to Intangible Cultural Heritage.

“…According to the authors' opinion, the Sociocultural Information Urban Space contains three base contexts, presented in Figure 2. With the growing importance of independent social interactions gamification technologies become an important public motivation mechanism in e-government and city management, as well as self-organization, self-development one (Feng et al, 2018;Mueller et al, 2018;Vanolo et al, 2018;Zica et al, 2018;Hassan et al, 2019).…”

The construction of information urban space allows effectively improve the management quality and the sociocultural development of cities. In this paper the concept of Sociocultural Information Urban Space considered as logical development both Smart city infrastructure and social machine concepts, proposed for studying and understanding the features, possibilities, base information flows of the smart city sociocultural face. The Sociocultural Information Urban Space idea helps to recognize or improve the ordinary data driving city concept because of smart and gamification technology use so that greater range of digital services related to the sociocultural city facets can be provided to different stakeholders. Suggested smart city architecture, models, as well as St. Petersburg cases illustrate the approach, structure, and core implementation steps of the urban space. Two application scenarios allow discussing how processes of sustainable development and self-regulation mechanisms of Sociocultural Information Urban Space can be used to meet the factual needs of citizens and decision-making.
