Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL)
The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) is the systematic study of teaching and learning; it involves identifying a problem, asking a question, gathering evidence, drawing conclusions based on that evidence, and making those findings public for the benefit of others. It employs the strict rigor and diligence that is applied to disciplinary research.
Below is a repository of resources found at the Howard University Library and the Washington Research Library Consortium (WRLC). This collection is divided into several categories: Assessment, Blended Learning and Technology, Engagement and Student Success, Instructional Design, Professional Development, Online Learning and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
