CI-Team: CyberBridges

互联网增强研究和评估中心的试点项目“网络桥梁”是一个新的模式，为研究人员开发能力，在使用CI。CyberBridges不会成为基础CI研究的场所;它确实提供了创造新一代科学家和工程师的潜力，他们能够将CI完全融入其不同学科的整个教育，专业和创造过程。CyberBridges将通过赋予他们CI来提高科学教师的发现率，促进跨学科研究，提高少数民族研究生教育的有效性，并使这一变革进程制度化。我们的假设是，增加研究生教育，包括在研究和教育CI的理解的基础，将弥合信息技术社区和学科之间的鸿沟。这将导致一个更好的系统，以提高CI的有效性，渗透和利用我们社会中代表性不足的部门。更广泛的影响：在网络桥梁的核心是一个机会，汇集不同学科的研究生，和不同的学术团体。越多的研究生研究员合作建立他们的研究和教育CI的理解，越大的机会是跨学科的沟通。

The Center for Internet Augmented Research and Assessment pilot project 'CyberBridges' is a new model for the research workforce to develop competency in using CI. CyberBridges will not be a locus for fundamental CI research; it does offer the potential to create a new generation of scientists and engineers who are capable of fully integrating CI into the whole educational, professional, and creative process of their diverse disciplines.CyberBridges will increase the rate of discovery for science faculty by empowering them with CI, to foster inter-disciplinary research, to improve the effectiveness of minority graduate education, and to institutionalize this change process. The hypothesis is that augmenting graduate student education to include a foundation of understanding in research and education CI will bridge the divide between the information technology communities and the disciplines. This will result in an improved system for the effectiveness, penetration, and utilization of CI with an underrepresented sector of our society. Broader Implications: At the core of CyberBridges is an opportunity for bringing together graduate students of diverse disciplines, and disparate academic communities. The larger the number of graduate fellows collaboratively building their understanding in research and education CI, the greater the opportunities are for cross discipline communication.
