Session Description
A qualitative study was used to understand the experiences of twelve Women Education Technology Leaders in Higher Education. Through the interviews, women leaders described the environment as well as personal and behavioral aspects of their work. Findings included the descriptive concepts of relationships, leadership, persistence, and advice. Relationships were from workplaces and professional networks, leadership was defined by vision and teamwork, persistence was addressed by either values-based or through relationship-based. The fourth thread advice was divided into three sub-threads: educational, family (both personal and work) and managing emotions. A qualitative approach was used to highlight interview responses to demonstrate the experiences of Women Education Technology Leaders in Higher Education.

Dr. Katherine Watson has been teaching French, English, ESL, linguistics, anthropology, and journalism for more than five decades, at first among farm laborers in picking fields, then in traditional classrooms, and ultimately online. She co-conceived, developed, and taught the first online adjunct to a telecourse offered by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, Annenberg Learner’s French in Action. Then, she launched the first completely-online course in California’s Coast Community College District. Her publications have concentrated on language and thought, as they are transmitted and learned through time, space, and mode of delivery, as well as the transdisciplinary nature of learning. Dr. Watson is also a professional translator and interpreter and a swimmer in any sea.
