Exploring the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) landscape of academia: SoTL‐centric culture elements in institutions of faculty members who publish in SoTL‐focused journals

Abstract

This chapter  describes the results of a survey‐based study intended to provide insight into the existence and degree of empirical support for the elements of strong teaching cultures in colleges and universities where faculty members participate in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL). The findings contribute to the larger body of literature on the importance of fostering strong teaching cultures in higher education and highlight the need for institutions to prioritize the support and recognition of faculty engaged in SoTL.
