This project supports a group of 25 US-based doctoral students and early career professionals to virtually attend the Doctoral Consortium, Early Career Workshop, and Mid-Career Workshop at the Annual Meeting of the International Society of the Learning Sciences to be held virtually in June 2021. This workshop will enhance the capacity of the learning sciences as a field to address important challenges associated with the transformation of education and broadening of participation in the digital age. Additionally, the workshop will target diverse participants within the field and mentor scholars who are underrepresented. The overall goal is to support new scholars in the interdisciplinary learning science research community and contribute to impactful research on learning that will benefit society as a whole.Given the virtual setting due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the project will employ new technologies to create virtual-based opportunities for community building and networking for the participants. The workshop organization builds on a successful model documented as effective in similar past workshops, providing opportunities for the participants to interact with international researchers and practitioners. The activities provide participants with a deeper understanding of the field combined with hands-on mentorship. This will support early career scholars to succeed in the field and go on to make valuable intellectual contributions. Ultimately, the workshop will enhance the capacity of the learning sciences as an interdisciplinary field to address important challenges associated with the transformation of education and broadening of participation in the digital age.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.

该项目支持 25 名美国博士生和早期职业专业人员以虚拟方式参加将于 2021 年 6 月举行的国际学习科学学会年会上的博士联盟、早期职业研讨会和中期职业研讨会。该研讨会将增强学习科学作为一个领域的能力，以应对与教育转型和扩大数字时代参与相关的重要挑战。此外，研讨会还将针对该领域的不同参与者并指导代表性不足的学者。总体目标是支持跨学科学习科学研究界的新学者，并为有影响力的学习研究做出贡献，造福整个社会。鉴于 Covid-19 大流行造成的虚拟环境，该项目将采用新技术为参与者创造基于虚拟的社区建设和网络机会。 该研讨会的组织建立在过去类似研讨会中记录为有效的成功模式的基础上，为参与者提供了与国际研究人员和从业者互动的机会。这些活动使参与者能够更深入地了解该领域并结合实践指导。这将支持早期职业学者在该领域取得成功，并继续做出宝贵的智力贡献。最终，该研讨会将增强学习科学作为跨学科领域的能力，以应对与教育转型和扩大数字时代参与相关的重要挑战。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影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
