Teaching & Learning: Scholarly Teaching
Scholarly teaching is an intellectual activity designed to bring about documented improvements in student learning. Scholarly teaching reflects a thoughtful engagement and integration of ideas, examples and resources, coupled with pedagogically informed strategies of course design and implementation to bring about more effective teaching and learning. Scholarly teaching documents the effectiveness of student learning in a manner that models or reflects disciplinary methods and values.
The Scholarly Teacher:
- exhibits curiosity about his/her students, student learning and students’ learning environments
- identifies issues/ questions (problems) related to some aspect of student learning
- develops, plans and implements strategies designed to address/enhance student learning
- documents the outcomes of his/her strategies using methodology common to the discipline
- reflects upon and shares with others his/her ideas, designs and strategies and outcomes of their work
- consistently and continually builds upon his/her work and others (i.e., process is iterative)
