Citizen Science has moved beyond a methodological tool for ecologists to crowdsource data to a novel platform for environmental and informal science education. However, few studies document the individual learning outcomes of citizen science as an educational tool, particularly in youth or extension education. This quantitative study focused on evaluating the individual learning outcomes of an environmental education and citizen science non-formal learning experience about water quality.In this study, an existing lesson plan using four sequenced activities was adapted for use with West Virginia 4-H summer camps in 2022. Potential outcome areas were first identified from foundational environmental education theory and emerging citizen science frameworks. Learning outcomes were evaluated by comparing pre-participation and post-participation survey responses with paired t-tests, McNemar tests, and descriptive frequencies during four, weeklong summer camps at Jackson's Mill 4-H camp.The results showed an overall success of the activities, based on statistically significant positive increases in Interest in science and the environment, Knowledge of water quality and citizen science, and Stewardship intentions. By understanding these outcomes, we can better plan citizen science learning experiences to best meet targeted outcomes and act as an effective platform for education.
