Science of Learning: History and Prospects

该提案包括两个背靠背的工作坊。第一部分将重点介绍过去十年来学习科学工作的历史，包括但不限于六个学习科学中心内开展的工作。第二部分将关注如何在未来十年最好地开展学习科学方面的工作。第一个讲习班“学习的科学：历史”将回顾在科学和基础设施和设施方面取得的成就，以及在学习科学方面尚未取得的成就，并讨论长处和短处。第二个研讨会，“学习的科学：前景”，将关注未来的机会在哪里，威胁在哪里，以及如何在研究机会和支持研究的组织结构（中心，对个人研究者的奖励，综合中心，博士后奖学金等）方面最好地开展和滋养科学。目标是探索学习科学未来的总体战略，并将知识与社会挑战联系起来，包括教育、技术和劳动力挑战。讲习班的讨论将有助于制定可实现的目标和评估方法。将编写关于这两个讲习班的报告，并提供给学习科学研究界和资助界。

This proposal includes two, back-to-back workshops. The first will focus on the history of work on the science of learning over the last ten years, including but not limited to work conducted within the six Science of Learning Centers. The second will focus on how work on the science of learning might best be conducted over the next ten years.The first workshop, The Science of Learning: History, will review what has been achieved scientifically and in terms of infrastructure and facilities, and what has not been achieved within the science of learning, dealing with strengths and weaknesses. The second workshop, The Science of Learning: Prospects, will attend to where the opportunities are for the future, where the threats lie, and how the science should best be conducted and nourished in terms of the research opportunities and the organizational structures to support the research (centers, awards to individual investigators, synthesis centers, post-doc fellowships, etc).The goal is to explore general strategies for the future of the science of learning, and to connect the knowledge to societal challenges, including educational, technological and workforce challenges. Discussions from the workshops will help to formulate attainable objectives and methods of assessment. Reports will be written of both workshops, to be made available to science of learning research communities and funding communities.
