WORKSHOP: iConference 2014 Doctoral Research Colloquium

这笔资金用于支持不同群体的美国博士生和杰出教师导师参加一个关于信息科学研究的博士研讨会(研讨会)，该研讨会将与3月4日至7日在德国柏林举行的2014年iConference同时举行，由柏林洪堡大学柏林图书情报学院和哥本哈根大学皇家图书情报学院联合主办。IConference，iSchool社区的年度会议(参见Http://ischools.org/)是一个领先的论坛，它将教师、学生、研究人员和行业从业者聚集在一起，对支持和加强人类与信息和技术的参与有着共同的兴趣。IConference面向广泛参与，成功地围绕信息领域建立了一种社区感，将原本可能很少相互互动的人聚集在一起，并帮助他们分享与其跨学科研究有关的发现和意见。有关2014年互联网大会的更多信息，请访问http://ischools.org/theiconference/call-for-participation/.。2014年iConference博士座谈会将于2014年3月7日(iConference的最后一天)举行，将是一个为期一天的研究会议，大约35名精选的博士生将与12名杰出导师一起学习信息科学(IS)的各个方面(NSF基金将用于支持来自美国院校的16名学生参与者)。博士座谈会的主要目标是帮助培养下一代信息科学研究人员。为此，它将为学生参与者提供一个环境，在其中他们可以在研究的早期阶段分享和讨论他们的目标、方法和结果。通过参加博士座谈会，学生将从导师和其他学生那里获得对他们工作的反馈，这将使他们能够加强他们的研究。学生还将更好地了解从事信息科学研究的不同研究社区，并学习如何在IS社区内定位他们的工作。此外，座谈会将为学生提供在各自学科之外建立新的专业联系的机会。更广泛的影响：iConference博士座谈会传统上汇聚了信息科学和相关领域的最优秀的下一代研究人员，使他们能够在他们之间以及与处于其专业发展关键阶段的高级研究人员建立一个社交网络。鼓励广泛的相关学科和方法的参与，从而拓宽了与会者对其研究主题的视角，并促进了该领域的进步。任何一所院校都不会录取超过一名学生，以前没有参加过iConference博士座谈会的学生将被优先考虑。组织者将积极努力，尽可能在学生参与者中纳入妇女和少数族裔代表。作为这些步骤的结果，学生和教师参与者将在不同的维度组成一个多样化的群体，这将有助于拓宽学生的视野，使其未来受益于该领域。

This is funding to support travel for a diverse group of U.S. PhD students and distinguished faculty mentors to participate in a doctoral colloquium (workshop) on research on information science that will be co-located with the 2014 iConference to be held March 4-7 in Berlin, Germany, and jointly hosted by the Berlin School of Library and Information Science at Humboldt-Universitat zu Berlin and the Royal School of Library and Information Science at the University of Copenhagen. The iConferences, the annual meetings of the iSchool community (cf. http://ischools.org/ for more information) are a leading forum that brings together faculty, students, research staff, and industry practitoners with a common interest in supporting and augmenting human engagement with information and technology. Open to broad participation, the iConferences have been successful in building a sense of community around the information field, bringing together people who otherwise might rarely interact with one another, and helping them share findings and exchange views relating to their interdisciplinary research. More information about the 2014 iConference may be found online at http://ischools.org/theiconference/call-for-participation/. The 2014 iConference Doctoral Colloquium, which will take place on March 7, 2014 (the final day of the iConference), will be a day long research-focused meeting of approximately 35 selected PhD candidates studying all aspects of information science (IS) together with 12 distinguished mentors (NSF funds will be used to support 16 student participants from U.S. institutions). The primary objective of the Doctoral Colloquium is to help train the next generation of information science researchers. To this end, it will provide the student participants with an environment in which they can share and discuss their goals, methods and results at an early stage of their research. By participating in the doctoral colloquium, students will gain feedback on their work both from the mentors and from other students, which should allow them to enhance their research. Students will also develop a better understanding of the different research communities engaged in the study of information science, and learn how to position their work within the IS community. In addition, the colloquium will provide students with opportunities to make new professional connections beyond their own disciplines. Broader Impacts: The iConference doctoral colloquia traditionally bring together the best of the next generation of researchers in information science and related areas, allowing them to create a social network both among themselves and with senior researchers at a critical stage in their professional development. Participation is encouraged from a broad range of relevant disciplines and approaches, thereby broadening attendees' perspectives on their topics of study and promoting advancement of the field. No more than one student will be accepted from any given institution, and priority will be given to students who have not previously attended an iConference Doctoral Colloquium. The organizers will proactively work to include women and minority representation among the student participants to the extent possible. As a consequence of these steps, the student and faculty participants will constitute a diverse group across a variety of dimensions, which will help broaden the students' horizons to the future benefit of the field.
