The United States has historically been a global leader in the field of the learning sciences, an interdisciplinary field that draws on multiple theoretical and methodological perspectives with the goal of advancing knowledge about human learning and development in a variety of educational settings, frequently in the context of emerging technologies. The preeminent conference in this field is the Annual Meeting of the International Society of the Learning Sciences (ISLS). At this conference the latest research is presented and practitioners learn the state of the art techniques in learning science research, and the related research area of computer-supported collaborative learning. The project provides partial travel support to the ISLS Meeting for six Ph.D. students from the United States, selected through a competitive process, to present their work and receive additional mentoring outside of their dissertation committees as part of a doctoral consortium. The project also supports partial travel support for five early career researchers from the United States, to discuss their research programs and career trajectories with peers and senior researchers in the field. The intellectual merit of the work is in improving the dissertation research of the graduate students and building impact and opportunity for early career researchers; in both tracks the work is enhanced by guidance from world-class mentors who meet with the students in a structured format to improve their research. The broader impact includes multiplying opportunities to develop collaborations in the field of learning sciences, and supporting the career development of some of the best and brightest researchers in multiple disciplines who work in this interdisciplinary area. By supporting a pipeline of high-quality US scholars from multiple disciplines into this interdisciplinary field, this proposal helps ensure US participation and parity in this productive and vital area of research.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.

美国历史上一直是学习科学领域的全球领导者，学习科学是一个跨学科领域，利用多种理论和方法论观点，其目标是在各种教育环境中推进有关人类学习和发展的知识，经常在这样的背景下的新兴技术。该领域最杰出的会议是国际学习科学学会（ISLS）年会。在这次会议上展示了最新的研究成果，从业者可以学习学习科学研究的最先进技术以及计算机支持的协作学习的相关研究领域。该项目为六名博士参加 ISLS 会议提供部分差旅支持。通过竞争过程选出的来自美国的学生，作为博士联盟的一部分，展示他们的作品并在论文委员会之外接受额外的指导。该项目还为来自美国的五名早期职业研究人员提供部分旅行支持，以便与该领域的同行和高级研究人员讨论他们的研究项目和职业轨迹。 这项工作的智力价值在于改善研究生的论文研究，并为早期职业研究人员创造影响和机会；在这两个轨道上，工作都得到了世界级导师的指导，他们以结构化的形式与学生会面，以改进他们的研究。更广泛的影响包括增加在学习科学领域开展合作的机会，并支持在这个跨学科领域工作的多个学科中一些最优秀和最聪明的研究人员的职业发展。通过支持来自多个学科的高素质美国学者进入这一跨学科领域，该提案有助于确保美国在这一富有成效且至关重要的研究领域的参与和平等。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过评估被认为值得支持利用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准。
