[Purpose/significance] This paper presents a preliminary reflection on the operation mechanism of citizen science projects oriented by research crowdsourcing mode, to provide theoretical and practical guidance for the development of citizen science projects in China.[Method/process] This paper summarizes the framework and basic procedure of citizen science projects through systematical literature review, and describes a three-stage model of the operation mechanism for citizen science programs. Evolution MegaLab has been selected as a case.[Result/conclusion] This paper conducts a case study to examine the operation model of citizen science projects that includes three stages of inputs, activities and outcomes; it also yields some implications for the development of citizen science projects in China.
