Planning: Capacity Building for a New RII Track-1 in Vermont

佛蒙特州委员会通过全州范围内的竞争性公开征集和审查过程，选择了以“在线、集体知识和故事研究”（SOCKS）为中心的研究主题，认为这是支持不断发展的技术部门和推进RII Track-1提案的最佳定位。SOCKS专注于计算社会科学的主题，这与佛蒙特州的科学和技术计划完全一致。规划拨款提案为实现佛蒙特州委员会制定的目标提供了最佳机会。一系列关于团队科学的研讨会和更广泛的影响，包括包括该领域专家和不同与会者参加的“全体会议”，将有助于探索完整提案的想法。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The Vermont State Committee, through a statewide, competitive, open call and review process, selected the research theme centered around the “Study of Online, Collective Knowledge, and Stories” (SOCKS) as best positioned to support the growing technology sector and move forward the RII Track-1 proposal. SOCKS is focusing in the topic of Computational Social Sciences which is properly aligned with the Vermont's Science and Technology Plan. The planning grant proposal offers an optimal opportunity to achieve the goals set forth by Vermont’s State Committee. A series of workshops in team science and broader impacts including an "all-hands" meeting that includes the participation of experts in the area as well as diversity of attendees will serve to explore ideas for the full proposal.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.
