Categorized SEA Faculty Pathway Model. SEA faculty outcomes are grouped into four categories: Knowledge & Skill Acquisition, Knowledge & Skill Advancement, Community, and Psychological Affirmations; the category “Community” can be sub-divided into “Networked Community” and “Community of Supportive Practitioners”. The general relationship of outcomes between these categories, and the timeframe in which faculty are most likely to realize the outcome, are represented by colored boxes and the order in which they appear, from left to right. Within the first year of participating in SEA, faculty realize outcomes related to Knowledge & Skill Acquisition and become networked with other members of the SEA community. In subsequent years, faculty advance their science pedagogy as they engage one another as members of the SEA community. Thus, over time, a community of supportive practitioners grows and learns together. Over time, faculty realize outcomes related to Psychological Affirmations, which promotes their sense of connectedness to their peers, competence as educators, and appreciation for the profession.
