About the Journal

Scholarship of Teaching and Learning is defined by McKinney (2007) as the process of framing questions for study, gathering evidence and reflecting on it, trying out new insights, and going public with information that others can critique and build upon” regarding teaching and learning practices. In other words, the SoTL is the systematic reflection/inquiry/study of teaching and learning (e.g., asking and answering questions about students’ learning) made public (e.g., share findings and contribute to the broader community), can be reviewed critically by members of the appropriate community, and can be built upon others to advance the field (Schulman, 2007) through presentation, publications, or performance to advance the pedagogical field. By engaging in SoTL, the academic community advances the teaching practices/pedagogical knowledge through inquiry to enhance student learning outcomes.
