  text: '<jats:p>The paper presents a cross-European survey on teachers and crowdsourcing.
    The survey examines how familiar language teachers are with the concept of crowdsourcing
    and addresses their attitude towards including crowdsourcing into language teaching
    activities. The survey was administrated via an online questionnaire and collected
    volunteers’ data on: (a) teachers’ experience with organizing crowdsourcing activities
    for students/pupils, (b) the development of crowdsourced resources and materials
    as well as (c) teachers’ motivation for participating in or employing crowdsourcing
    activities. The questionnaire was disseminated in over 30 European countries.
    The final sample comprises 1129 language teachers aged 20 to 65, mostly working
    at institutions of tertiary education. The data indicates that many participants
    are not familiar with the concept of crowdsourcing resulting in a low rate of
    crowdsourcing activities in the classroom. However, a high percentage of responding
    teachers is potentially willing to crowdsource teaching materials for the language(s)
    they teach. They are particularly willing to collaborate with other teachers in
    the creation of interactive digital learning materials, and to select, edit, and
    share language examples for exercises or tests. Since the inclusion of crowdsourcing
    activities in language teaching is still in its initial stage, steps for further
    research are highlighted.</jats:p>'
