The proposed research will create environments that go beyond existing Wikis (being primarily focused on hypertext) to permit the integration (not just attachment) of other forms of media ranging from movies and animations, to sharing of datasets, to the creation and utilization of social network information to support community interaction, to conceptual mind-mapping media.The proposed research will- examine how current wiki-like environments are limited in supporting the different ways in which creative people might represent and contribute to a body of knowledge and study what other types of objects, context and interfaces (beyond hyperlinked text) would be desirable, usable, and useful;- analyze and create specifically the following entities: mind maps, videos, anecdotes/stories and how these could be designed to allow them to be readily and rapidly developed and extended by participants;- explore different (potentially intertwined) "modes" interacting with such an environment (including: face-to-face activities, synchronous, and asynchronous activities); and- utilize new paradigms (such as the emerging Web 2.0 framework) for developing systems that are open and extensible, permitting the inclusion of new forms of information and representation within the community memory.The proposed research meets specifically the following SGER criteria:- having urgency with regard to availability of, or access to unique opportunities - the opportunity to study the creation and support of the CreativeIT research community, as represented by efforts already undertaken to seed an initial Swiki for the workshop held November 1-3, 2006. The opportunity to study this community building effort and supporting it with a new class of wiki represents a unique opportunity.- ventures into emerging and transformative research ideas - the emerging efforts to establish a program within NSF linking IT with creative endeavors will catalyze the self application of the programs goals to the development of the program.- application of new expertise or new approaches to established research topics - the synergy of a challenging task, the involvement of the emerging research community, and the expertise and experience of the proposing researchers will offer unique perspectives on the creation and evolution of a new generation of web-based tools for community development.Intellectual Merit. The proposed activity will permit the development of grounded theories and effective architectures for the use of new technologies in this field.Broad Impact. The socio-technical environment developed will have the potential for broad impact by supporting creative communities, which are a critical resource for the competitive ability of the US workforce. The effort to create a community around the CreativeIT Initiative within CISE provides an opportunity to study the use of community-building creativity-support tools for a community where support for development and sharing of creative ideas is critical.

拟议的研究将创建超越现有维基（主要关注超文本）的环境，以允许集成（不仅仅是附件）其他形式的媒体，从电影和动画到数据集共享，到创建和利用社交网络信息以支持社区互动，再到概念性思维导图媒体。拟议的研究将检查当前的类似维基的环境在支持创意人员可能代表和贡献的不同方式方面受到限制。 知识体系并研究哪些其他类型的对象、上下文和界面（超链接文本之外）是可取的、可用的和有用的；- 具体分析和创建以下实体：思维导图、视频、轶事/故事，以及如何设计这些实体以允许参与者轻松快速地开发和扩展它们；- 探索与此类环境交互的不同（可能相互交织的）“模式”（包括：面对面） 活动、同步和异步活动）； - 利用新的范式（例如新兴的 Web 2.0 框架）来开发开放和可扩展的系统，从而允许在社区记忆中包含新形式的信息和表示形式。拟议的研究具体满足以下 SGER 标准： - 迫切需要获得或获得独特的机会 - 研究 CreativeIT 研究社区的创建和支持的机会，如已经为培育初始 Swiki 所做的努力所代表的那样 研讨会于 2006 年 11 月 1 日至 3 日举行。有机会研究这一社区建设工作并通过新类别的 wiki 支持它，这是一个独特的机会。- 探索新兴和变革性的研究想法 - 在 NSF 内建立一个将 IT 与创造性工作联系起来的项目的新兴努力将促进项目目标的自我应用，以促进项目的发展。- 将新的专业知识或新方法应用于既定的研究主题 - 具有挑战性的研究的协同作用 任务、新兴研究界的参与以及提议研究人员的专业知识和经验将为新一代基于网络的社区发展工具的创建和发展提供独特的视角。智力价值。拟议的活动将允许开发基础理论和有效的架构，以便在该领域使用新技术。广泛的影响。所开发的社会技术环境将通过支持创意社区而产生广泛影响，创意社区是美国劳动力竞争能力的关键资源。在 CISE 内围绕 CreativeIT Initiative 创建社区的努力提供了一个机会来研究社区建设创造力支持工具的使用，在社区中，对创意想法的开发和共享的支持至关重要。
