Conference Tracks

Academic/ Professional Development - Research

Abstract

How do you initiate a culture of SoTL on campus? In this presentation, we share our experiences launching the first SoTL initiative at our university. This ethnographic research examines the experiences of our Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) and our work with a cohort of participants as we attempt to promote SoTL more broadly at our university. Navigating a summer institute, facilitating SoTL workshops, engaging in interviews with SoTL participants, and asking an overarching question of “do you consider yourself a SoTL scholar” are all cornerstones of “A Campus-Wide Initiative in SoTL: Lessons Learned and a New Approach.”
