Truly widening participation? A review of the use of public voting for selection of content in the Walk1916 project
ABSTRACT In the past few years, crowdsourcing has developed a reputation for its ability to ‘widen participation’ by engaging the public in archival practices or engage non-professionals as ‘citizen archivists’ to complete archival work. However, does public voting truly widen participation? If so, how? While public voting may appear to meet the aims of gathering many opinions for its ease of use and low barrier to participation, is it really a decent method to widen participation? And further, are the results of the public voting of use to potential users who engage with the results of a project? This paper reports on the use of public voting as a method to gather opinion for the Walk1916 mobile walking tour app, which was developed to enhance use of and access to digital content in archival collections.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Community Archaeology & Heritage is a new journal intended for participants, volunteers, practitioners, and academics involved in the many projects and practices broadly defined as ‘community archaeology’. This is intended to include the excavation, management, stewardship or presentation of archaeological and heritage resources that include major elements of community participation, collaboration, or outreach. The journal recognises the growing interest in voluntary activism in archaeological research and interpretation, and seeks to create a platform for discussion about the efficacy and importance of such work as well as a showcase for the dissemination of community archaeology projects (which might offer models of best practice for others). By inviting papers relating to theory and practice from across the world, the journal seeks to demonstrate both the diversity of community archaeology and its commonalities in process and associated theory. We seek contributions from members of the voluntary sector as well as those involved in archaeological practice and academia.
