This is funding to support a Young Pioneers Workshop (doctoral consortium) of approximately 20 graduate students and recent graduates from master's and doctoral programs in diverse research communities (including computer science and engineering, psychology, cognitive science, robotics, human factors, human-computer interaction design, and communications), along with distinguished research faculty. The event will take place on Tuesday, March 2, 2010, immediately preceding the Fifth Annual Human Robot Interaction Conference (HRI 2010) to be held March 3-5, 2010, in Osaka, Japan, and which is jointly sponsored by ACM and IEEE. The theme of HRI 2010 is "Grand Technical and Social Challenges in HRI," which highlights the critical need to take up and speak to the integration of the hard technical and social problems facing the field as we move to create our future with robots. More information about the conference is available at http://hri2010.org. The Young Pioneers Workshop is designed to complement the conference, by providing a forum for students and recent graduates in the field of HRI to share their current research with their peers and a panel of senior researchers in a setting that is less formal and more interactive than the main conference. During the workshop, participants will talk about the important upcoming research themes in the field, encouraging the formation of collaborative relationships across disciplines and geographic boundaries. To these ends, the workshop will include sessions in a variety of formats: student oral presentations, student poster presentations, a hands-on breakout session, and group presentations. Attendees will hear short presentations from 6 selected student participants; those students not invited to give an oral presentation will participate in an interactive poster session. The workshop will feature a Career Panel with three senior HRI researchers who will share insights about their own careers and answer career path questions posed by the organizers and participants. The discussions will continue over lunch in smaller groups. In the afternoon, a hands-on breakout session will involve small group projects in which participants will investigate how to design an HRI experiment; afterward, the groups will present a summary to the entire workshop. Participants in the workshop will come away with knowledge of current research being conducted by their colleagues, awareness of diverse interdisciplinary methodologies, and understanding of emerging themes in HRI. They will also have had a rare opportunity to engage in dialogue containing cross-disciplinary knowledge and multinational perspectives at the graduate level.Broader Impacts: This workshop will afford a unique opportunity for the best of the next generation of researchers in human-robot interaction to be exposed to and discuss current and relevant topics as they are being studied in several different research communities (including but nor limited to computer science and engineering, psychology, robotics, human factors and ergonomics, and human-computer interaction). This is important for the field, because it has been recognized that transformative advances in research in this fledgling area can only come through the melding of cross-disciplinary knowledge and multinational perspectives. Participants will be encouraged to create a social network both among themselves and with senior researchers at a critical stage in their professional development, to form collaborative relationships, and to generate new research questions to be addressed during the coming years. Participants will also gain leadership and service experience, as the workshop is largely student organized and student led. The PI will act aggressively to recruit young researchers from minority and underrepresented groups in order to assure diversity of the participants across a variety of dimensions, so that the students' horizons are broadened to the future benefit of the field. To validate the effectiveness of the 2010 Young Pioneers Workshop, she will conduct pre- and post-workshop surveys. Additionally, as this is the workshop's fifth year, she will evaluate its effectiveness and value by conducting a longitudinal survey of past participants and organizers.

这是资助支持青年先锋队研讨会（博士财团）的约20名研究生和硕士和博士课程的不同研究社区（包括计算机科学和工程，心理学，认知科学，机器人，人为因素，人机交互设计和通信）的应届毕业生，沿着杰出的研究教师。 该活动将于2010年3月2日星期二举行，紧接着将于2010年3月3日至5日在日本大坂举行的第五届年度人类机器人交互会议（HRI 2010），由ACM和IEEE联合赞助。 HRI 2010的主题是“HRI的重大技术和社会挑战”，这突出了在我们用机器人创造未来的过程中，我们迫切需要解决并解决该领域面临的技术和社会问题。 有关会议的更多信息，请访问http://hri2010.org。少先队工作坊旨在补充会议，为HRI领域的学生和应届毕业生提供一个论坛，与同龄人和高级研究人员小组分享他们目前的研究，这种设置不太正式，比主要会议更具互动性。 在研讨会期间，与会者将讨论该领域即将到来的重要研究主题，鼓励跨学科和地理边界的合作关系的形成。 为了这些目的，研讨会将包括各种形式的会议：学生口头报告，学生海报展示，动手分组会议和小组报告。 与会者将听取6名选定的学生参与者的简短演讲;未被邀请进行口头演讲的学生将参加互动海报会议。 研讨会将设有一个职业小组，由三名高级HRI研究人员组成，他们将分享对自己职业的见解，并回答组织者和参与者提出的职业道路问题。 讨论将在午餐时以小组形式继续进行。 下午，实践分组会议将涉及小组项目，参与者将研究如何设计HRI实验;之后，小组将向整个研讨会提交摘要。 研讨会的参与者将了解他们的同事正在进行的研究，了解不同的跨学科方法，并了解HRI中的新兴主题。 他们也将有一个难得的机会，在研究生阶段参与包含跨学科知识和多国视角的对话。本次研讨会将提供一个独特的机会，最好的下一代研究人员在人机交互接触和讨论当前和相关的主题，因为他们正在研究在几个不同的研究社区（包括但不限于计算机科学和工程、心理学、机器人、人因工程学和人机交互）。这对该领域很重要，因为人们已经认识到，这个新兴领域的研究只有通过跨学科知识和跨国视角的融合才能取得变革性进展。 将鼓励参与者在他们自己之间以及与处于专业发展关键阶段的高级研究人员建立社会网络，以形成合作关系，并提出未来几年要解决的新研究问题。 参与者还将获得领导和服务经验，因为研讨会主要是学生组织和学生领导的。 PI将采取积极行动，从少数民族和代表性不足的群体中招募年轻的研究人员，以确保参与者在各个方面的多样性，从而拓宽学生的视野，使该领域的未来受益。 为了验证2010年少先队工作坊的成效，她将在工作坊前后进行调查。 此外，由于这是讲习班的第五个年头，她将通过对过去的参与者和组织者进行纵向调查，评估其有效性和价值。
