This is funding to support participation by students and faculty based in U.S. educational institutions in a Graduate Student Symposium (workshop) to be organized in conjunction with the 14th ACM Creativity & Cognition (C&C) conference, which will take place June 21-23 in Venice, Italy. Creativity is the cornerstone and the fundamental motive of both the aesthetic and engineering disciplines. It is a critical element of our economic and social prosperity, as a precursor to scientific discoveries, technological advances, and new forms of cultural and aesthetic experiences. Held every other year in an international location since 1993, C&C serves as a gathering place for the diverse communities of researchers, designers, engineers, and artists who provide an innovative and cross-disciplinary perspective on creativity and cognition as well as technological innovation. C&C is the only ACM-sponsored conference in which human creativity is the central focus, and as such it provides pathways for substantially different kinds of work including interactive art pieces, user studies of creativity support tools, and new sensor technologies for creative practice. It serves as a premier forum for presenting the world's best new research investigating computing's impact on and ability to promote creativity in all forms of human experience. The conference particularly values research that explores new, synergistic roles for computing and people in creative processes, or that addresses situations where computing, as contextualized in sociotechnical systems, may sometimes have an undesirable impact. The theme of this year's conference is "Creativity, Craft, and Design" and more information may be found online at http://cc.acm.org/2022/. The Graduate Student Symposium will have broad impact by contributing to the professional development of a more knowledgeable, capable, and productive workforce in the U.S., and by inviting participation of graduate students along with promising senior-level undergraduates from under-represented groups and at institutions not historically represented at the conference through aggressive and targeted recruitment. To further promote diversity, no more than two graduate students will be accepted from any one educational institution, and if there are two then at least one of them must be female.The Graduate Student Symposium will bring together up to 12 students (not all of whom will be eligible for funding) and 3 distinguished researchers from academia and industry as mentors, in a day-long event that will be held on June 20, 2022, the day before the main C&C conference. It will provide the students with a unique opportunity to present early-stage research and receive gentle feedback from mentors with different disciplinary backgrounds. The young researchers will gain experience and skills in communicating their own work and critiquing the work of their peers, as well as professional and social connections that transcend the event, and awareness of potential career paths in both academia and industry. The student submissions will appear in the C&C Proceedings, and they will be indexed in the ACM Digital Library. Students will also be invited to present their work at the main conference during the Poster Session, which will both give their work wider visibility in the community and provide an opportunity for them to talk one-on-one with peers and senior researchers, in addition to the focused mentoring in the GSS itself.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.

这笔资金用于支持美国教育机构的学生和教师参加与第 14 届 ACM 创造力与认知 (C&C) 会议同期举办的研究生研讨会（研讨会），该会议将于 6 月 21 日至 23 日在威尼斯举行， 意大利。创造力是美学和工程学科的基石和根本动力。它是我们经济和社会繁荣的关键要素，是科学发现、技术进步以及新形式的文化和审美体验的先驱。自 1993 年以来，C&C 每隔一年在国际地点举办一次，成为研究人员、设计师、工程师和艺术家等不同社区的聚集地，他们为创造力和认知以及技术创新提供创新和跨学科的视角。 C&C 是 ACM 主办的唯一以人类创造力为中心焦点的会议，因此它为不同类型的工作提供了途径，包括互动艺术作品、创造力支持工具的用户研究以及用于创造性实践的新传感器技术。它是展示世界上最好的新研究的首要论坛，这些研究调查了计算对人类各种形式体验的影响和促进创造力的能力。会议特别重视探索计算和人在创造性过程中新的协同作用的研究，或者解决计算在社会技术系统中有时可能产生不良影响的情况。 今年会议的主题是“创意、工艺和设计”，更多信息请访问http://cc.acm.org/2022/。 研究生研讨会将通过促进美国知识渊博、能力更强、生产力更高的劳动力的专业发展，并邀请研究生以及来自代表性不足群体和机构的有前途的高年级本科生参与，从而产生广泛的影响历史上没有通过积极和有针对性的招募代表出席会议。为了进一步促进多样性，任何一所教育机构招收的研究生不得超过两名，如果有两名，则至少其中一名必须是女性。研究生研讨会将聚集最多 12 名学生（并非全部）将有资格获得资助）和 3 位来自学术界和工业界的杰出研究人员作为导师，参加为期一天的活动，该活动将于 2022 年 6 月 20 日（即 C&C 主要会议的前一天）举行。 它将为学生提供一个独特的机会来展示早期研究并从不同学科背景的导师那里获得温和的反馈。 年轻的研究人员将获得交流自己的工作和批评同行工作的经验和技能，以及超越活动的专业和社会联系，以及对学术界和工业界潜在职业道路的认识。学生提交的内容将出现在 C&C Proceedings 中，并且将在 ACM 数字图书馆中建立索引。 学生还将被邀请在海报会议期间的主会议上展示他们的工作，这不仅可以让他们的工作在社区中得到更广泛的关注，还可以为他们提供与同行和高级研究人员一对一交谈的机会。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。
