Written by sociology professor and endowed chair in SoTL at Illinois State University, this is the most thorough and current resource on SoTL. It includes definitions of the term, rationales for conducting research in SoTL, suggestions for getting started and moving forward with an SoTL project, and ideas for publication. Several helpful appendices provide an extensive bibliography, list of journals and online SoTL resources, as well as potential funding sources for SoTL. This is a great resource for individual faculty, for faculty SoTL groups, for faculty development coordinators, and for administrators.
