[wtkn-forum] Invitation to Dec. 17 workshop "The Science of Science Poli

[susan.turnbull@xxxxxxx]

Greetings! 

You and your colleagues are invited to Collaborative Expedition Workshop
#79, "The Science of Science Policy" on Wednesday, Dec. 17, at
the National Science Foundation. This no fee, one day public workshop will
explore conditions conducive to emergence of a mature, 21st century approach
to science and innovation policy. A primary goal of the workshop is to
open up dialogue and receive feedback around the November 2008 document,
"The Science of Science Policy: A Federal Research Roadmap" developed
by the Interagency Task Group of the National Science and Technology Council's
Subcommittee on Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences.  

It is likely that how we design our physical and virtual knowledge sharing
environments (including scientific knowledge that will influence policy-making
and innovation) will play a pivotal role in the continued vitality and
creativity of our 21st century democracy. The workshop will open up dialogue
to facilitate "bootstrapping" among multiple communities and
institutions committed to advancing civic design in the public realm and
leveraging engagement opportunities associated with Web 2.0.  Workshop
participants are encouraged to bring a laptop.  Participants who are
interested to comment on the Roadmap prior to the workshop can contact
Julia Lane at jlane@xxxxxxx and request a log-in account at the Science
of Science Policy site at http://scienceofsciencepolicy.net 

RSVP: You will need to pre-register for this workshop by sending an email
to Joan Cole at cole@xxxxxxxxxx  Please indicate whether you plan
to attend in person or remotely via teleconference and web collaboration.

WHEN: Wednesday, Dec. 17, 2008, 9:00am - 3:30pm
