inter Science of Learning Center Conference

摘要：本提案要求提供资金，以支持由6个学习科学中心(SLCs)的研究生和博士后研究员组织的第八届学习科学中心间会议(I-SLC)。本次活动为中心学员提供了一个交流研究成果、共享资源和促进职业发展机会的重要场所。这一卓有成效的活动促成了跨中心合作，包括跨中心学生交流，以便在其他实验室进行额外培训。今年的会议将由NSF资助的加州圣地亚哥时间动力学学习中心(TDLC)于2015年5月31日至6月2日主办。主题是“研究与创新：与教育的交集”。申请的资金将用于支付加州大学圣地亚哥分校(UCSD)的会议设施费用，以及与会者的出席费用，包括旅费和每日津贴。2015年大会将在前几届会议的基础上，通过在研讨会和方法研讨会、校友小组、校友演讲中的口头/签名演讲促进中心内和跨中心的合作，并创建一个连接过去、现在和未来的SLC培训人员的一体化研究网络。广泛影响I-SLC在催化一个庞大而强大的研究生和博士后研究员网络方面发挥了重要作用，这些网络将为未来的学习科学提供坚实的基础，使其发展成为一个健全的、跨学科的研究领域。

Abstract:This proposal requests funds to support the eighth annual Inter-Science of Learning Centers (i-SLC) Conference, organized by the graduate students and postdoctoral fellows of the 6 Science of Learning Centers (SLCs). This event has served as a vital venue for exchanging research findings across the SLCs, sharing resources and stimulating career development opportunities for Center trainees. This highly productive activity has resulted in cross-center collaborations, including cross-center student exchanges for additional training in other laboratories. This year, the conference will be hosted by the NSF-funded Temporal Dynamics of Learning Center (TDLC) in San Diego, CA on May 31-June 2, 2015. The theme is "Research and Innovation: the intersection with Education ". Requested funds will be used to pay for conference facilities at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) and to cover participants' costs of attending, including travel and per diem. The 2015 Conference will build upon the previous Conferences to facilitate intra-center and cross-Center collaborative through oral/signed presentations in symposia and methodology workshops, alumni panels, alumni presentations and the creation of an onllne research network which connects past, present and future SLC trainees.Broader ImpactsThe i-SLC has been instrumental in catalyzing a large and robust network of graduate students and postdoctoral fellows who will provide a firm foundation on which the future of Science of Learning will build upon, as it evolves into a full-bodied, interdisciplinary research field.
