Technology mediated social participation is now a way of life for millions of people as they text family and friends via cell phones, track leaders and celebrities on Twitter, update their Facebook page to tell others about their activities, and interact with numerous web portals. Use of these technologies spans a broad range of users, from kids under ten years old to retirees.This proposal will develop an intellectual framework and research agenda for studying and facilitating social participation for national priorities, such as health care, education, energy, disaster response, community safety, and environmental protection. Two workshops will cover six topics that will spur research challenges: (a) theoretical integration (b) social capital, social intelligence, and effective action, (c) sharable infrastructure, ethics, and protections, (d) design to motivate, (e) graduate training and (f) the unique challenges for government use of social media. The primary output of the workshops will be a report that specifies challenges and outcomes for each of the topic areas.

以技术为媒介的社会参与现在是数百万人的生活方式，因为他们通过手机给家人和朋友发短信，在Twitter上跟踪领导人和名人，更新他们的Facebook页面以告诉其他人他们的活动，并与众多门户网站互动。从10岁以下的儿童到退休人员，这些技术的使用范围非常广泛。该提案将制定一个知识框架和研究议程，以研究和促进社会参与国家优先事项，如医疗保健，教育，能源，灾难应对，社区安全和环境保护。两个研讨会将涵盖六个主题，将刺激研究的挑战：（a）理论整合（B）社会资本，社会情报，和有效的行动，（c）共享的基础设施，道德和保护，（d）设计，以激励，（e）研究生培训和（f）政府使用社交媒体的独特挑战。讲习班的主要产出将是一份报告，具体说明每个专题领域的挑战和成果。
