Workshop: Information Technology Workforce/Education Workforce Principal Investigators Conference 2004

2004年ITWF/EWF PI会议宾夕法尼亚州立大学获得ITWF奖，将于2004年10月在费城组织ITWF和ITR/EWF主要研究者研讨会。该讲习班将促进就妇女和少数群体在信息技术劳动力和信息技术教育中代表性不足的问题进行学术讨论。 研讨会的智力价值是通过在整个计划中纳入有关妇女和少数民族在IT劳动力和IT教育中代表性不足的介绍和讨论来提供的。 研究这些和相关领域的PI和Co-PI有很多机会就这些重要主题进行会面，讨论和合作。ITWF方案的一个目标是鼓励就代表性不足问题开展多学科工作。这次研讨会的更广泛影响在于，来自信息技术学科、社会科学和教育的大量科学家有机会分享与这一目标有关的多个项目的信息，这反过来将有助于在更多的研究人员群体中传播这一信息。 此外，还将向讲习班与会者提供会议记录，包括每个与会者项目的摘要，并将其作为PDF文件在网上广泛传播。

ABSTRACTITWF Program - FY04CNS 0451269 PI Eileen Trauth, Pennsylvania State U.Title ITWF/EWF PI Conference 2004Pennsylvania State University has received an ITWF award to organize an ITWF and ITR/EWF Principal Investigators' Workshop to be held in Philadelphia in October, 2004. The workshop will foster intellectual discussion on the under-representation of women and minorities in the information technology (IT) workforce and in IT education. The intellectual merit of the workshop is provided by incorporating throughout the planned program, presentations and discussions on the under-representation of women and minorities in the IT workforce and in IT education. There are numerous opportunities for PIs and Co-PIs studying these and related areas to meet, discuss and work together on these important topics. A goal of the ITWF program is to encourage multidisciplinary work on the under-representation issue. The broader impact of this workshop lies in the opportunities for a significant number of scientists from IT disciplines, the social sciences and education, to share information on multiple projects related to this goal, which in turn will help spread this information among more groups of researchers. In addition, a conference proceedings, including summaries of each of the participants' projects will be made available to workshop participants and also as a PDF file on the Web for broader dissemination.
