Strategic Collaboration (TM): A Model for Mentoring Women Faculty in Science, Engineering, and Technology Mara H. Wasburn Purdue UniversityAbstractNumerous studies of women faculty in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics(STEM) disciplines have described greater isolation, a lack of access to information andprofessional opportunities, and fewer mentors than their male counterparts. Women faculty arepromoted more slowly, and are far more likely to leave an institution before gaining tenure. Thispaper argues that Strategic Collaboration (TM), a new, formal mentoring model that relies uponregular, focused group interaction among

to stimulate research and development in learning science andtechnology, worked with over seventy leading learning science and informationtechnology researchers over a three year period to produce the Roadmap. The Roadmapdefines research priorities, a development chronology, and short- and long-termmilestones. While the roadmap focuses on post-secondary science, math, engineering,and technology education, its research plan should be useful to all learning markets,including K-12. The roadmap provides a comprehensive strategic view of the learningscience and technologies field which can guide researchers, industry, and fundingagencies as they strive for innovation in educational technology. This paper describeshow the roadmap was developed and
