The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning or聽SoTL聽is the systematic study of teaching and learning processes. SoTL聽involves the search for best and new practices to disseminate knowledge in classrooms that promotes effective learning. Areas of SoTL could include but not be limited to classroom research, advisement, mentoring, instructional assessment, instructional technology, and instructional design. Faculty engaged in SoTL聽research find themselves聽asking a research聽question informed by a problem or idea; designing a study to gather聽evidence;聽draw a conclusion聽based on study results; and make the findings public in some meaningful way to benefit others. SoTL聽projects are rigorous and help faculty researchers serve as both scholars and learners.
The Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning provides SoTL聽resources and support for faculty seeking such research in their work. For assistance or to submit your SoTL聽project for this community, please contact Dr. Hella Jacob.
