CAP: ICLS 2016: Transforming Learning, Empowering Learners -- Doctoral Consortium and Early Career Workshops

网络学习和未来学习技术计划资助的工作将有助于设想下一代学习技术，并推进我们对人们如何在技术丰富的环境中学习的了解。网络学习CAP项目通过改善技术基础设施、人力资本和其他方式，建设网络学习领域的研发能力。国际学习科学会议提供了一个研究学习环境设计的论坛，包括技术增强的学习环境。该项目支持一个博士联盟和一个早期职业研讨会，该研讨会允许早期职业学者接受来自计算机科学和学习研究领域的知名网络学习研究人员的指导。该项目支持来自美国大学的高级研究生和新教师参加在新加坡举行的ICLS 2016会议的能力建设活动。参与者是通过竞争程序选出的，以确保他们在工作中具有较高的智力价值。该项目不仅通过为年轻的美国研究人员提供指导机会来提高能力，而且还允许早期职业研究人员获得来自世界各地的最新发现的重要途径（早期职业学者通常拥有有限的研究资金，经常因预算原因而无法参加备受瞩目的国际会议）。通过有组织的活动，美国学者将向美国和其他国家的同行和导师学习，并与他们建立联系。

The Cyberlearning and Future Learning Technologies Program funds efforts that will help envision the next generation of learning technologies and advance what we know about how people learn in technology-rich environments. Cyberlearning CAP projects build capacity for research and development in the field of cyberlearning by improving technical infrastructure, human capital, and in other ways. The International Conference of the Learning Sciences provides a forum for research on the design of learning environments, including technology-enhanced learning environments. This project supports a Doctoral Consortium and an Early Career Workshop at the conference which allows early career scholars to receive mentoring from established cyberlearning researchers from both computer science and learning research.This project supports travel for advanced graduate students and new faculty from U.S. universities to attend the capacity-building activities at the ICLS 2016 conference in Singapore. Participants are selected through a competitive process that ensures high intellectual merit in their work. The project not only increases capacity by providing mentoring opportunities to young US researchers, but also allows early career researchers vital access to the latest findings from around the world (early-career scholars, who often have limited research funds, are often prevented from attending high-profile international meetings for budgetary reasons.) Through structured activities, the US scholars will learn from, and build connections with, peers and mentors from the US and other countries.
