Target Audience: The SoTL Network is open to anyone currently engaged in Scholarship of Teaching & Learning (SoTL) or interested in beginning SoTL research.
The SoTL Network is a monthly forum for colleagues engaged in, or curious about, the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL). These sessions provide structured opportunities to explore key concepts, discuss emerging questions, share works-in-progress, and develop SoTL knowledge, skills, and confidence.
Through collaborative dialogue and peer support, participants will deepen their understanding of SoTL approaches, consider methodological and ethical dimensions of inquiry into teaching and learning, and build momentum toward dissemination through internal and external outlets.
The Network aims to foster a cross-disciplinary community of practice that supports rigorous, reflective, and impactful educational scholarship.
Course Outcomes/Objectives;
By participating in the SoTL Network, colleagues will be able to:
- Articulate key principles, purposes, and characteristics of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL).
- Critically reflect on and refine a teaching and learning question suitable for SoTL inquiry within their disciplinary context.
- Identify and apply appropriate strategies for designing, evaluating, and disseminating SoTL projects.
Session topics and any pre-work will be emailed to you prior to each session.
