The SoTL Network is a monthly forum for colleagues engaged in, or curious about, the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL), pedagogic research, and educational innovation.

The Network provides a supportive cross-disciplinary community where colleagues can connect with others who share an interest in investigating and enhancing teaching and learning. Through guest speakers, networking opportunities, peer feedback, and discussions of work in progress, members will have opportunities to exchange ideas, develop collaborations, explore dissemination pathways, and gain insights from the experiences of fellow scholars.

Whether you are at the beginning of your scholarly journey or have an established programme of pedagogic research, the Network offers a collegial space to learn from others, share your work, and contribute to a vibrant culture of educational inquiry across the University.

The SoTL Network meets both in person and online.  Registration here is for both formats.  If attending virtually, please save this Teams link in your calendar.
