Crowdsourcing is an innovative information-products generation method based on distributed networks of collaborators (such as Wikipedia and Linux).

The aim of the workshop is to develop a crowdsourcing technology suitable for architectural design through a series of experiments that will examine the efficiency of these processes. These experiments are a part of a broader research conducted at the university.
 
The workshop will have three parts:
    • In the first part, we will study the basics of crowdsourcing processes and will explore leading examples, with an emphasis on complex and creative products.
    • In the second part, three experiments will be performed, with each experiment examining a different crowdsourcing method. In each lesson, design tasks will be performed by the students.
    • In the third part, we will review and summarize the insights that were discovered from the workshop towards the development of the software.
