Policy Roadmap on Research infrastructures for citizen science
[...] * Focus on understanding the background knowledge needed by citizen scientists and implement adaptive approaches to CS projects to facilitate and sustain the engagement, such as scaffolding
This depends on the subject of each project also. Maybe, one can highlight here the importance of task analysis for the production of a citizen science project (D2.1), the importance of collaboration with boundary organizations to understand the educational perspective of the demonstrator and organize one's approach accordingly, and then identify how one can proceed to balance scientific goals and educational goals. Every new citizen science project might benefit from these steps followed by REINFORCE.
