The proposed activity aims to improve the recruitment and retention of women inengineering academia and to enhance career development of women engineeringacademics by addressing publications in refereed scholarly journals. This project will develop a CD ROM that demystifies the journal publication process.The CD ROM will contain both text material and digital video. An overview of how thesystem works and the differences, both in procedure and in impact, of journal articles,journal short papers, journal notes, refereed proceedings and book chapters will bedocumented in clear and general terms. How the editorial board of a journal operatesfrom editor-in-chief down to individual reviewers will be explained with suggestions onhow to become involved with a journal in an editorial capacity. Then, a set of bestpractices case studies that follow engineering papers from first submittal throughpublication will be included. These will take the user through the review and revisionprocess step by step and at least one case study will involve a rejected paper that issuccessfully transformed for another journal. The video clips will provide comments anddiscussion by article authors, journal editors and reviewers, using women engineeringacademics where possible. While the focus is on journal papers, this CD ROM willassist the users in developing other peer reviewed publications including proposals.Dissemination will be in two phases and will be aligned with assessment effortsinvolving surveys and interviews. This project will benefit a large number of womenacademics and potential academics by addressing an issue vital to scholarly success.This project is supported by the NSF ADVANCE Program. The overall mission of the ADVANCE Program is to increase the participation of women in the scientific and engineering workforce through the increased representation and advancement of women in academic science and engineering careers.

拟议的活动旨在改善工程学术界女性的招聘和保留，并通过在评审学术期刊上发表文章来促进女性工程学者的职业发展。这个项目将开发一个光盘ROM，使期刊出版过程变得不那么神秘。光盘将包含文本材料和数字视频。系统如何工作的概述，以及在程序和影响方面的差异，期刊文章，期刊短文，期刊笔记，参考论文和书籍章节将以清晰和一般的方式记录。杂志的编辑委员会是如何运作的，从主编到个别审稿人，将解释如何成为一个期刊的编辑能力的建议。然后，将包括从首次提交到出版的工程论文的一组最佳实践案例研究。这将带领用户一步一步地完成审查和修改过程，至少一个案例研究将涉及一篇被拒绝的论文，并成功地转化为另一本期刊。视频片段将提供文章作者、期刊编辑和审稿人的评论和讨论，尽可能使用女性工程学者。虽然重点是期刊论文，但该光盘将帮助用户开发其他同行评审出版物，包括提案。传播将分两个阶段进行，并将与涉及调查和访谈的评估工作保持一致。该项目将通过解决对学术成功至关重要的问题，使大量女性学者和潜在学者受益。本项目由美国国家科学基金会ADVANCE计划资助。ADVANCE计划的总体任务是通过增加女性在学术科学和工程职业中的代表性和进步来增加女性在科学和工程劳动力中的参与度。
