The scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) is a specialized form of inquiry into various aspects of teaching or learning. This workshop series will introduce participants to SoTL, review ways in which data can be collected and analyzed to better understand teaching and learning, and plan a mentored SoTL project. Participants should come to this workshop series ready to reflect on questions they have about their own teaching and learning contexts. Participants will have a documented, draft SoTL project that will have been through two stages of peer review and refinement. These projects will be ready to launch in the fall of 2024 or the spring of 2025. SoTL projects will be structured as SoTL University Research Grant applications and will be appropriate for submission for the FY25 funding cycle in mid-June 2024.
A $500 stipend is available to eligible participants who complete the program. Registration is required.
Please note: all registrants will be automatically wait-listed. Registrants will receive notification when their registration is finalized.
Participation Limits
Due to the time commitment associated with this in-depth workshop, instructors are limited to participation in only one cohort experience during Summer Institute.
