Introducing Scholarship - SOTL Workshop Series, Thursday, 3rd October, 11.00-12:00, online

Led by:

  • Hannah Cobb
     

At the University of Manchester we define scholarship as:

“Evidence based systematic practice that positively impacts student outcomes or experience and is disseminated for critical review and, where appropriate adoption by others. Scholarship can include the scholarship of teaching and learning, or discipline based educational or pedagogic research, as well as the development, application and synthesis of disciplinary knowledge to inform teaching (e.g. research-informed teaching).”

But what does this mean in your context? If you haven't engaged in scholarship before, how might you get started? And if you've been doing it for a while, or think you've been doing it for a while, how do you build, develop, evaluate and disseminate your work. This session provides an introduction to all things scholarship, whatever stage in your scholarship journey you are at. 

 

 

Scholarship Methods - SOTL Workshop Series, Thursday, 17th October 2024, 14:00-15:00, online

Led by:

  • Hannah Cobb

At the University of Manchester we define scholarship as:

“Evidence based systematic practice that positively impacts student outcomes or experience and is disseminated for critical review and, where appropriate adoption by others. Scholarship can include the scholarship of teaching and learning, or discipline based educational or pedagogic research, as well as the development, application and synthesis of disciplinary knowledge to inform teaching (e.g. research-informed teaching).”

But how can we put this in practice? How should we actually do scholarship? There is no simple answer - there are a range of methods that may be determined by the subject of your scholarship, and the context in which you are working. In this session we explore the breadth of methods. Whether you are just beginning or have been doing scholarship for some time, this session aims to provide a space to work and think through the different methodological approaches that might be valuable for you.
