Abstract

We describe MindHive (www.mindhive.science), an online citizen science platform for human brain and behavior research that uses a participatory science learning approach to engage learners in the full spectrum of scientific inquiry. Building on an open science philosophy, it features a collaborative study design environment comprising an experiment builder, a catalogue of validated tasks and surveys, and a public-facing study page; a peer review center where students can engage with and reflect on studies designed by peers from their own schools and schools around the globe; and GDPR-compliant data collection, data management, and data visualization and interpretation functionality. We describe research generated during the COVID-19 pandemic by students to illustrate how the platform supports student-teacher-scientist community partnerships for participatory learning in authentic inquiry.
