The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning: A Guide for Scientists,
Engineers, and Mathematicians shows college and university faculty
members how to draw on their disciplinary knowledge and teaching
experience to investigate questions about student learning. It
takes readers all the way through the inquiry process beginning
with framing a research question and selecting a research design,
moving on to gathering and analyzing evidence, and finally to
making the results public. Numerous examples are provided at each
stage, many from published studies of teaching and learning in
science, engineering, or mathematics. At strategic points, short
sets of questions prompt readers to pause and reflect, plan, or
act. These questions are derived from the authors' experience
leading many workshops in the United States and Canada on how to do
the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL). The taxonomy of
SoTL questions-What works? What is? What could be?-that emerged
from the SoTL studies undertaken by scholars in the Carnegie
Academic for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning serves as a
framework at many stages of the inquiry process. The book addresses
the issue of evaluating and valuing this work, including
implications for junior faculty who wish to engage in SoTL. The
authors explain why SoTL should be of interest to STEM (science,
technology, engineering, and mathematics) faculty at all types of
higher education institutions, including faculty members active in
traditional STEM research. They also give their perspective on the
benefits of SoTL to faculty, to their institutions, to the academy,
and to students.
