The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning
The scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) is a systematic approach to collecting and analyzing data related teaching and student learning and sharing that work with others. A good introduction to SoTL can be found in Peter Felton’s article “Principles of Good Practice in SoTL” from Teaching & Learning Inquiry (Vol. 1, Iss. 1, pp. 121-125).
Carleton’s Institutional Review Board (IRB) is responsible for overseeing all research done at Carleton by faculty, students or staff that involves human subjects.
