This is funding to support a Doctoral Consortium (workshop) for approximately 10 promising graduate students along with a panel of 4 distinguished research faculty as mentors. The event will take place in conjunction with the 2020 International Conference on Supporting Group Work (GROUP 2020), to be held January 4-8 on Sanibel Island, Florida, and sponsored by ACM's Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction (SIGCHI). For over 25 years, the bi-annual GROUP conferences have been a leading international forum for the presentation and discussion of research and practice on organizational behavior, information systems, social informatics, human-computer interaction (HCI), and computer supported cooperative work (CSCW), providing a showcase for innovative work on the development, introduction, management, deployment, and analysis of computer-based collaborative systems. Research reports published in the GROUP conference proceedings are rigorously reviewed and widely cited. More information is available online at https://group.acm.org/conferences/group20/. The Doctoral Consortium focuses on participating students' doctoral dissertations and provides both an opportunity for these projects to be shaped through intellectual exchange as well as an opportunity to communicate the character of the work to a key group of early career researchers. There are both short- and long-term benefits to the GROUP research community and to society from this workshop. In the short term, the event will bring together the best of the next generation of researchers exploring the fields relevant to the conference, will allow the students to create a social network both among themselves and with several senior researchers, and will facilitate their enculturation into the field. Furthermore, the workshop will provide an avenue for advanced Ph.D. students to advertise themselves and their work to conference attendees, many of whom may be hiring. Finally, the students and faculty are anticipated to be a diverse group on several dimensions (e.g., scientific discipline, gender, institutional affiliation, underrepresented minority status), which will help broaden the students' horizons at a critical stage in their professional development. In the longer term, the organizers expect that students who have participated in the Doctoral Consortium will give back to the community by engaging as mentors themselves to future generations of students, and that these exceptional students will be the future leaders of the GROUP community.The GROUP 2020 Doctoral Consortium will begin with a full day pre-conference research-focused workshop on Sunday, January 5, followed by events integrated throughout the conference, including presentations at the posters/demos reception and a reflective wrap-up session. The student participants will be later stage doctoral candidates primarily from the United States, and will represent a variety of disciplines including computer and information science, information systems, and communications. Each student will present a summary of their work for public critique and will discuss currently open questions; this will help the students understand and articulate how their work is positioned relative to other research, whether their topics are adequately focused for thesis research projects, whether their methods are correctly chosen and applied, and whether their results are being appropriately analyzed. The working lunch will focus on managing one's committee and learning how to "finish well" while the working dinner will focus on career development plans, including best strategies for the job search in academe and industry. The goals of the workshop are to build a cohort group of young researchers who will then have a network of colleagues spread across the world, to guide and shape the work of the new researchers by having experts serve as mentors and give advice, to provide encouragement and support for the selection of GROUP research topics, to make it possible for promising new entrants to the field to attend a leading research conference and to illustrate for them the interrelationship and diversity of GROUP research, and in general to make the new entrants' experience at the GROUP conference enjoyable and rewarding so that they will be encouraged to return and submit to future conferences in the series.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这笔资金用于支持一个博士联合会（讲习班），约有10名有前途的研究生沿着，由4名杰出的研究人员组成的小组担任导师。 该活动将与2020年支持小组工作国际会议（GROUP 2020）一起举行，该会议将于1月4日至8日在佛罗里达的萨尼贝尔岛举行，并由ACM的计算机-人类交互特别兴趣小组（SIGCHI）赞助。 25年来，每年两次的集团会议一直是一个领先的国际论坛，用于介绍和讨论组织行为学，信息系统，社会信息学，人机交互（HCI）和计算机支持的协同工作（CSCW）的研究和实践，为开发，引入，管理，部署，和分析基于计算机的协作系统。 发表在集团会议论文集的研究报告受到严格审查和广泛引用。 更多信息请访问https://group.acm.org/conferences/group20/。 博士生联盟专注于参与学生的博士论文，并提供了通过智力交流塑造这些项目的机会，以及向早期职业研究人员的关键群体传达工作性质的机会。 本次研讨会对集团研究界和社会都有短期和长期的好处。 在短期内，该活动将汇集下一代最优秀的研究人员，探索与会议相关的领域，将允许学生在他们之间以及与几位高级研究人员建立社交网络，并将促进他们融入该领域。 此外，研讨会将提供一个渠道，先进的博士学位。学生可以向与会者宣传自己和他们的工作，其中许多人可能正在招聘。 最后，学生和教师预计将是一个多元化的群体在几个方面（例如，科学学科、性别、所属机构、代表性不足的少数群体地位），这将有助于在学生专业发展的关键阶段拓宽他们的视野。 从长远来看，组织者希望参加博士生联盟的学生能够通过成为未来学生的导师来回馈社区，这些优秀的学生将成为集团社区未来的领导者。集团2020博士生联盟将于1月5日（星期日）开始为期一整天的会前研讨会，随后是贯穿整个会议的活动，包括在海报/演示招待会上的介绍和反思总结会议。 学生参与者将主要来自美国的后期博士候选人，并将代表各种学科，包括计算机和信息科学，信息系统和通信。 每个学生将提出他们的工作总结公众批评，并将讨论目前开放的问题;这将有助于学生理解和阐明他们的工作是如何定位相对于其他研究，他们的主题是否充分集中于论文研究项目，他们的方法是否正确选择和应用，以及他们的结果是否得到适当的分析。 工作午餐将侧重于管理一个人的委员会，并学习如何“做好工作”，而工作晚餐将侧重于职业发展计划，包括在企业和行业求职的最佳策略。 研讨会的目标是建立一个年轻研究人员的队列小组，然后他们将拥有遍布世界各地的同事网络，通过让专家担任导师并提供建议来指导和塑造新研究人员的工作，为选择小组研究课题提供鼓励和支持，使有前途的新进入者有可能参加领先的研究会议，并向他们说明集团研究的相互关系和多样性，总的来说，使新参加者在集团会议上的经历愉快和有益，以便鼓励他们返回并提交给未来的系列会议。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的评估被认为值得支持。影响审查标准。
