Definition of Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (for Institution)
• The Scholarship of teaching is public discourse conceptualizing teaching.
• The scholarship of teaching and learning opens the classroom door and creates a culture that values teaching. Like traditional research, it is made public, subjected to peer review and used by other members of the scholarly community.

Publishing in Scholarship of Teaching and Learning
From the ACU SOTL Web Site:
• The Scholarship of Teaching is public discourse conceptualizing teaching
• Public is making our work accessible to others for critical review and use.
• Discourse includes such varied contexts as curriculum committees, faculty development presentations, Web publications, teaching portfolios, or journal articles.

Publishing in Scholarship of Teaching and Learning
• What is the Dilemma facing faculty?

Richlin and Cox (1991, p.6)

Laying the groundwork for publishing in the Scholarship of
Teaching and Learning

Myths about Research in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning
• Research on issues of pedagogy is not of practical help to college faculty members and institutions
• The sharing of one’s teaching practices is not viewed highly by professionals on a national and international basis.
• Disciplinary research is the only legitimate model of scholarship among college faculty.
• Journals focused on teaching and learning are generally weak, less reputable and of lower quality than disciplinary research journals.

Characteristics of Journals focused on Teaching and
Learning• Many focus on methods and techniques of
teaching
• In some cases, the journal does not specialize in higher education
• Articles can be cross-disciplinary in nature
