Enhancing collaborative learning among researchers, practitioners, and students at CSCL 2002

这一请求将支持大学生(研究生和本科生)参加2002年1月在科罗拉多州博尔德举行的关于“计算机支持协作学习”(CSCL)的国际会议，大约有700名研究人员和从业人员参加。会议的主题是：理论、技术、方法论和社区建设方面的研究领域的基础。所要求的资金将用于支持会议上的活动，如创建“社区记忆”，其中包括数字视频、网络和DVD媒体，以捕捉和传播会议的想法。它还将支持教师直接参与会议进程的活动，以便向其他与会者提供从业者的观点。此外，它还将支持一个博士联盟，在研究生解释他们的论文工作时，将他们介绍给研究界。

This request would support college students (graduate and undergraduate) to attend an international conference on "Computer Support for Collaborative Learning" (CSCL) of about 700 researchers and practitioners in Boulder Colorado in January 2002. The theme for the conference is: foundations of the research field in theory, technology, methodology, and community building. The requested funds will support activities at conference such as creating a "community memory" which involves digital video, the Web, and DVD media to capture and disseminate ideas from the conference. It will also support activities that involve teachers directly in the conference process in order to provide the other participants with the perspective of practitioners. Also, it will support a doctoral consortium to introduce graduate students to the research community as they explain their dissertation work.
