The proposed workshop will bring together awardees of the NSF Science of Learning Program. It seeks to capitalize on NSF investments in the Science of Learning to build community among diverse interdisciplinary researchers studying learning, and to build capacity so that investigators can readily reconfigure and mobilize collaborations to capture new opportunities offered by NSF priority areas. As examples, how technology impacts the way we learn and work, as well as how we might harness Big Data to gain greater insight into real-world learning are areas of relevance to the NSF's 10 Big Ideas (https://www.nsf.gov/about/congress/reports/nsf_big_ideas.pdf). This gathering will include researchers from several disciplines under one large umbrella, including neuroscience, cognitive, behavioral and social sciences, computer and information sciences, engineering and education. The proposed effort is needed as there is currently no professional society meeting to support this interdisciplinary Science of Learning community of investigators and their trainees. The gathering seeks to foster information exchange and resource sharing, and to build trust among community members for successful interdisciplinary research. The workshop format will include small group discussions on topics that include new insights and methodologies that offer opportunities to make transformative advances in fundamental knowledge about learning over the lifespan, and intersections in interdisciplinary research that offer opportunities for convergence research in support of NSF's Big Ideas. In this way, the workshop will leverage the group's collective interdisciplinary intelligence for "Big Idea" problem-solving and the unique opportunity to work on problems that are larger than any taken on by individual laboratories. A survey of the research and other needs of the Science of Learning community will be conducted. The diverse disciplinary representation of the participants and the requirement to communicate and discuss science across a broad audience will have broader impacts in building an active and vibrant community capable of addressing complex societal problems through collaborative efforts. In addition, and as part of the workshop, plans will be developed to promote better communication of research findings to educational practitioners, policy makers, and the public. This will help to bridge the gap in understanding between basic research findings and their relevance to social challenges.

拟议的研讨会将汇集NSF学习计划的获奖者。它试图利用学习科学的NSF投资，以在学习学习学习的各种跨学科研究人员之间建立社区，并建立能力，以便研究人员可以轻松地重新配置和动员协作以捕获NSF优先领域提供的新机会。作为示例，技术如何影响我们学习和工作的方式，以及如何利用大数据以更深入地了解现实世界学习是与NSF的10个大创意相关的领域（https://wwwww.nsf.gov/about/about/congout/congress/congress/reports/reports/nsf_big_ideas.pdf一下）。这次聚会将包括来自一个大型伞的几个学科的研究人员，包括神经科学，认知，行为和社会科学，计算机和信息科学，工程和教育。需要做出的努力，因为目前尚无专业社会会议来支持这项研究人员及其学员学习社区的跨学科科学。该聚会旨在促进信息交流和资源共享，并在社区成员之间建立信任，以成功地跨学科研究。研讨会格式将包括有关主题的小组讨论，包括新的见解和方法论，它们提供了机会，可以在有关寿命的学习基础知识方面取得变革性的进步，以及跨学科研究的相互作用，为支持NSF的大型思想提供了融合研究的机会。通过这种方式，研讨会将利用该集团的集体跨学科情报来“解决问题”问题，以及解决比单个实验室所采取的任何问题的独特机会。将对学习社区科学的研究和其他需求进行调查。参与者的多样化纪律表现以及在广泛受众之间进行沟通和讨论科学的要求将对建立一个活跃而充满活力的社区产生更大的影响，该社区能够通过协作努力解决复杂的社会问题。此外，作为研讨会的一部分，将制定计划，以更好地促进向教育从业人员，政策制定者和公众更好地沟通研究结果。这将有助于弥合理解基础研究发现与他们与社会挑战相关的差距。
