  This article uses the concept of boundaries (Akkerman and Bakker 2011) to explore why collaboration in citizen science is sometimes difficult. The case study focuses on collaboration between project organizers and project volunteers in a single citizen science project. The volunteers, from a regional botanical society, experienced boundaries between their group’s practices and the citizen science project organized by a natural history museum, despite similar ways of working. Organizers and volunteers responded to boundary experiences by defining their respective practices and suggesting how project activities could be coordinated across boundaries. Findings from this study support practitioners’ efforts to implement citizen science projects that result in positive outcomes for organizers and volunteers by revealing how participation in a community of practice, such as a botanical society, affects volunteers’ engagement in citizen science. Suggestions are made for how project designs can be responsive to volunteers’ boundary experiences.

  Should students’ knowledge of popular culture be incorporated into teaching and learning in the classroom? This lecture describes a project to collect internet memes for the Norwegian Folklore Archive, and the archive’s collaboration with Oslo high school students. It demonstrates how three aspects of authentic learning–authentic to self, authentic to others, and the use of authentic tools–helped to engage students in the discipline of cultural history, and outlines implications for using internet culture in formal educational settings.

  Studies of participation in citizen science projects have shown the need to design tasks that provide meaningful connections to volunteers’ previous knowledge and interests to foster motivation and engagement. This challenge is explored in greater depth in a pilot study in which a natural history museum recruited members of a botanical society to contribute to an online citizen science project. The qualitative study followed the museum staff and botanists as they negotiated the terms for collaboration on this boundary object. Through analysis of in-person and online interactions, the study identifies specific challenges and opportunities for fostering reciprocity.

  Large number of specimens in the Natural History Museums remain un-digitized and are not yet available in electronic form. The Volunteer Portal is a citizen science project where amateur naturalists are invited to contribute to the electronic registration of herbarium collections. Telemark Botanical Society will help us to test and explore the Volunteer Portal.
