Training the next generation of learning scientists: CSCL 2011 workshop support

该项目通过博士联盟和香港计算机支持的协作学习(CSCL)2011年会议上的早期职业研讨会，为美国参与者在一个关键的全球学习科学研究和培训场所提供差旅和注册支持。这些讲习班的以前版本对计算机科学、信息科学、教育、心理学和认知科学等不同领域的学习科学的博士后和博士后学者的职业生涯和研究产生了重大影响。该项目的学术价值在于它挑选了高质量的博士后和博士后候选人，他们在计算机支持的协作学习方面的研究涉及到学习科学理论与实践相结合的会议主题。他们参加这次会议提供了机会来改进大约20名研究生的论文和大约20名职业生涯早期的博士后学者的研究议程。因此，这是一个重要的能力建设项目，利用了CSCL社区的专门知识和以前与国际学习科学会议(国际学习科学会议)举办的讲习班的成果。该项目的更广泛影响包括增加在CSCL领域开展国际合作的机会，并支持在CSCL领域工作的多学科中一些最优秀和最聪明的研究人员的职业发展。

This project is providing support for travel and registration for U.S. participants in a key global venue for research and training in the learning sciences via the Doctoral Consortium and Early Career Workshops at the Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) 2011 conference in Hong Kong. Prior versions of these workshops have had a significant impact on the career and research of pre- and post-PhD scholars in the learning sciences from diverse domains such as computer science, information science, education, psychology, and cognitive science. The intellectual merit of this project rests in its selection of top-quality pre- and post-doctoral candidates whose research in computer-supported collaborative learning addresses the conference theme of connecting theory and practice in the learning sciences. Their participation in the conference provides opportunities to improve the dissertations of approximately twenty graduate students and the research agendas of approximately twenty early career, post-doctoral scholars. As such it is an important capacity-building project that leverages the expertise of the CSCL community and the outcomes of previous workshops held with the International Conference of the Learning Sciences (ICLS). The broader impacts of this project include multiplying opportunities to develop international collaborations in the field of CSCL, and supporting the career development of some of the best and brightest researchers in multiple disciplines who work in the CSCL area.
