SoTL Working Lunch

Wednesday, January 9th 2019, 11:00 am – 1:00 pm in the Lakeshore Room

Are you looking for a scholarship project?
The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) is a path that will inform your teaching and expand your scholarship output.

Leaders: Angela Walmsley and Elizabeth Evans

Come as you are. Get started!
You get lunch! And a great book on SoTL.
No preparation needed other than an exercise of your curiosity. . bring a question you have about your students’ learning.
Bring your computer to get your ideas down on paper.

In this session you will learn about the steps in the SoTL process, identify a preliminary research question and study design, and set target dates for further steps. Follow-up support and/or touchpoints for each step can also be planned if participants are interested.

Concordia University Wisconsin Scholarship Boot Camp Winter 2019

Tuesday January 15 and Wednesday January 16, 2019 8am to 4:30pm

Come to a quiet place to work on your faculty scholarship projects, including your advanced study courses and dissertations. Sign up for the hours and days you plan to attend. Come as you are; arrive and leave as you need to.

Writing support, research design support and statistical planning and analysis support will be available for some part of each of the days.

The goal of this time is to produce tangible work. We provide the space, snacks, beverages, a lunch, and you supply the focus and attention to projects.

PH 039 will be the quiet space away from your phone and interruptions. The room will be open from 8am to 4:30 each day. You are encouraged to stay all day to get maximum benefit.

The last day to register for lunch (from the Landing) is Monday, January 14th at noon.
