Abstract
This panel shares results of two interdisciplinary Faculty Learning Communities (FLC) at Savannah State University. Participants will discuss their experiences engaging in communities of practice that yielded research designs for classroom interventions using the principles of (1) Metacognition and Motivation or (2) Best Practices in Developmental Education. The FLC groups learned SoTL relevant to their FLC topic and formed a community of scholars doing SoTL research projects. The presentation will summarize the activities and outcomes from the two FLCs, how they promoted SoTL on campus, and ways to extend this model to encourage SoTL and learning communities at other universities.
