Why Crowdsourcing is Critical to the Future of Education

The education sector is ripe for innovation with the use of crowdsourcing. According to the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development, even with the reputation of being slow-moving behemoths, educational institutions worldwide are more innovative than they are given credit for. In the United States, educational institutions, in particular, are starting to prioritize innovation. Rob Hoehn, CEO of IdeaScale, discusses how crowdsourcing can benefit educational institutions and society as a whole. Crowdsourcing has the potential to revolutionize online education by solving the problems of delivering large-scale virtual education and creating a platform for online crowds to contribute to the solutions. It has also been used to teach and verify complex data in the scientific community. Additionally, integration of educational institutions with the community provides a peaceful coexistence using crowdsourcing.
