Harnessing the Power of Crowdsourcing in Higher Education: Insights from a Comprehensive Survey

Abstract

This research paper explores whether crowdsourcing is actually useful as a teaching tool in higher education. The study looks at how it changes the way educators and students gain knowledge, along with the good things and problems that come with using it in current educational systems. By carefully reviewing survey information from students and teachers in different subjects, this research shows that crowdsourcing can improve learning together and make students more interested. The research discovered that most people understand crowdsourcing can potentially make learning better, but they are still worried about keeping the quality high and feel that the institutions need to provide support. Furthermore, by emphasizing the importance of working together to create knowledge, this study adds to the wider discussion about new teaching methods, encouraging colleges and universities to view crowdsourcing as a practical way to improve their programs and help students to improve their performances.
