The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning In and Across the Disciplines cover

Critical issues for interdisciplinary scholarship and teaching

Provides a state-of-the-field review of recent SoTL scholarship

The scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) began primarily as a discipline-based movement, committed to exploring the signature pedagogical and learning styles of each discipline within higher education, with little exchange across disciplines. As the field has developed, new questions have arisen concerning cross-disciplinary comparison and learning in multidisciplinary settings This volume by a stellar group of experts provides a state-of-the-field review of recent SoTL scholarship within a range of disciplines and offers a stimulating discussion of critical issues related to interdisciplinarity in teaching, learning, and SoTL research.

"[Represents] the continuation of an important conversation about the nature of scholarship, a renewed and increasingly sophisticated understanding of teaching, and a shift of focus from teaching to learning that has been occurring in the academy for at least a decade... [S]hows the extent to which a common language and methodologies have emerged as SoTL has matured." -Margaret Miller, University of Virginia
