This is funding to support a pair of events in conjunction with the 2008 Interaction Design for Children conference (IDC08), which will take place June 11-13 in Evanston, Illinois: a Doctoral Consortium which will bring together approximately 9 promising doctoral students from the United States and abroad along with 3 distinguished research faculty; and a pre-conference Workshop on Designing Technologies for Children with Special Needs that will culminate in a keynote lecture that will explore the challenges, opportunities and complexities behind producing international versions of a children's television program. The annual IDC conference is the leading international forum for the presentation and discussion of interaction design for children, from the perspective of research as well as practice. IDC08 will strive to expand the reach of previous conferences, both in terms of the number and kind of attendees, and in terms of the number and kind of children that we target with our technologies. The goals of the Doctoral Consortium are to increase the exposure and visibility of the participants' work within the community, to help establish a sense of community among this next generation of researchers, and to help foster their research efforts by providing substantive feedback and guidance from a group of senior researchers in the area in a supportive and interactive environment. Student participants in the Doctoral Consortium will make formal presentations of their work and will receive feedback from a faculty panel; the feedback is geared to helping students understand and articulate how their work is positioned relative to other research, whether their topics are adequately focused for thesis research projects, whether their methods are correctly chosen and applied, and whether their results are appropriately analyzed and presented. The Workshop on Designing Technologies for Children with Special Needs will allow intellectual exchange among top researchers and designers in this field. Discussions about challenges for working with special populations, new methods for approaching these challenges, and new directions for research and design will contribute to and expand the research perspective of all participants. During the main conference attendees of both events will present their work in poster sessions, and abstracts will be included in the IDC Conference Proceedings as well in the ACM Digital Library.Broader Impacts: The pre-conference workshops at IDC08 will bring together some of the best students, researchers and practitioners in the field of interaction design for children, and will thereby afford the younger participants a unique opportunity to gain wider exposure in the community for their innovative ideas while also allowing them to create a social network both among themselves and with senior colleagues in the field. Since the IDC conferences host a diverse group along several dimensions (such as nationality, scientific discipline, and research specialization), participants' horizons will be broadened and new collaborations will emerge, to the future benefit of the field.

这是资金，以支持一对事件结合2008年儿童交互设计会议（IDC 08），将于6月11日至13日在埃文斯顿，伊利诺伊州：一个博士联盟，将汇集约9名有前途的博士生从美国和国外沿着与3名杰出的研究人员;以及一个关于为有特殊需要的儿童设计技术的会前研讨会，该研讨会将以一个主题演讲结束，该演讲将探讨制作儿童电视节目的国际版本背后的挑战、机遇和复杂性。 年度IDC会议是从研究和实践的角度介绍和讨论儿童交互设计的领先国际论坛。 IDC 08将努力扩大以往会议的影响范围，无论是在与会者的数量和种类方面，还是在我们的技术所针对的儿童的数量和种类方面。 博士联盟的目标是增加参与者的工作在社区内的曝光度和可见度，帮助在下一代研究人员中建立社区意识，并通过在支持和互动的环境中提供一组高级研究人员的实质性反馈和指导来帮助促进他们的研究工作。 博士生联盟的学生参与者将正式介绍他们的工作，并将收到来自教师小组的反馈;反馈是为了帮助学生理解和阐明他们的工作是如何定位相对于其他研究，他们的主题是否充分集中于论文研究项目，他们的方法是否正确选择和应用，以及他们的结果是否得到适当的分析和呈现。 关于为有特殊需要的儿童设计技术的讲习班将使这一领域的顶尖研究人员和设计人员能够进行智力交流。 关于与特殊人群合作的挑战，应对这些挑战的新方法以及研究和设计的新方向的讨论将有助于扩大所有参与者的研究视角。 在主要会议期间，这两项活动的与会者将在海报会议上介绍他们的工作，摘要将列入国际数据中心会议记录以及ACM数字图书馆。IDC 08的会前研讨会将汇集儿童交互设计领域的一些最优秀的学生、研究人员和从业人员，让年青的参与者有机会在社会上多接触他们的创意，同时亦让他们与业界资深同事建立社交网络。 由于国际数据中心会议主办了一个多元化的小组沿着几个方面（如国籍，科学学科和研究专业化），与会者的视野将被拓宽，新的合作将出现，对该领域的未来利益。
