Surveys•Written for the purpose of:

▫Discover current behavioral patterns▫Discover behaviors to

encourage/discourage▫Find the best time to do data analysis

Innovation•Innovating on an existing Concept

▫Using games to process data has been done before Games With A Purpose (GWAP,

www.gwap.com)

▫The next step is to have a meaningful interaction

▫The goal is to not just process data, but generate further data as well as directly inspire researchers.
