Let’s see the case of this audio. This podcast was launched last year, as one of the episodes of the BBC series Inside Science. From around minute 14:45, the listener gets introduced to part of the history of citizen science such as radio-based research from the 1930s. This is followed by a discussion of the Zooniverse platform, which is 10 years old already. The reporter gets on the platform and describes his user experience, while he tells the audience he has chosen a project about penguins, helping scientists get more information about penguin populations. What makes this story interesting? In the episode, a person tries a tool live and tells the listener about his findings, curious facts and how his motivation rises because he is contributing to something he values.
