SoT&L Publication Survey Results

Following are the results of a survey conduced with Buffalo State College faculty and staff after they were sent the publication The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning: Strengthening Education through Research and Collaboration. Reading about the work of colleagues was successful in:

  • Developing understanding of the purpose of SoT&L;
  • Encouraging reflection on teaching and learning;
  • Establishing that BSC values this form of scholarship;
  • Stimulating interest in learning more about SoT&L; and
  • Creating interest in collaborative investigation of issues of teaching and learning.
