Experiment

​

group discussion

What is your overall impression of the experiment in terms of content?

Has your attitude to the task (and crowdsourcing in general) changed during and/or after completion of the experiment? E.g. if you had doubts in the beginning - do you still have them?

Motivation - some have completed 300 tasks, others haven’t even started. Does it show problems in motivating a crowd? Which way can motivation be improved? To pay?

Advantages and disadvantages of the task - in terms of focus on MWEs (verbal separately from adverbial). Design of the task - the way questions were addressed to the “crowd”? Which other way could be used?

Who should be the crowd? How to define the crowd? Professional background? Age? Legal issues in connection with this? How many are a crowd?

Looking at the results - can crowdsourcing be used for language learning resources and materials?

As a proof-of-concept - does this experiment show applicability of crowdsourcing for language learning?

Could a task like this be applied

to your language?
