The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) is both intensely personal, being grounded in our own teaching practices, and necessarily public as an important contribution to the improvement of higher education. In this virtual interactive workshop, we will consider our options for sharing SoTL with others, including conference presentations, disciplinary and interdisciplinary journals, and alternative outlets. We will also address our fears about rigor and significance by investigating alternatives to traditional citation measures. Participants will leave the session with personalized practical suggestions for sharing their SoTL with a scholarly audience.
