The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) approach aims to facilitate the professional development of all individuals involved in higher education. Whether you're a teacher, pedagogical counsellor, academic dean or program coordinator, this book is for you! Based on scientific and professional literature, this guide provides inspiring, practical examples. You will discover a structured, six-step process that enables you to implement a pedagogical and curricular innovation project, rigorously evaluate its impact, and communicate the results within and outside your community.
The authors of this book hail from various countries and educational institutions and hold diverse positions at the college and university levels. Their reflections, advice and experience in the professional development of teaching staff will help you progress easily through the SoTL process and motivate you to persevere.
