Crowdsourcing of information systems research
本文探讨了技术中介的大规模协作如何为信息系统研究的生产提供创新替代方案，提出了众包研究类型框架，并针对贡献者激励、学术贡献评估、匿名性、治理、知识产权和价值观等关键问题制定了研究议程。
This paper addresses how technology-mediated mass collaboration offers a dramatically innovative alternative for producing IS research. We refer to this emerging genre as the crowdsourced research genre and develop a framework to structure discourse on how it may affect the production of IS research. After systematically traversing the alternative genre’s landscape using the framework, we propose a research agenda of the most substantial and imminent issues for the successful development of the genre, including contributor incentives, scholarly contribution assessment, anonymity, governance, intellectual property ownership, and value propositions. In addressing this research agenda, we reflect on what might be learned from other areas in which crowdsourcing has been established with success.
