Spring 2025 SoTL Showcase Call for Proposals

The Kirwan Center for Academic Innovation invites faculty across the ϡȱÁÔÆæÍø (ϡȱÁÔÆæÍø) to participate in a spring 2025 showcase celebrating the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL). This system-wide event will provide a platform to share research findings and innovative teaching practices. This event is an extension of the Kirwan Center’s Elkins Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Fellows Program that has been ongoing since 2023.

We invite faculty, individually or with colleagues, to learn more about SoTL research and showcase your scholarship of teaching and learning research at this system-wide event. We encourage submissions that explore a wide range of SoTL topics, including but not limited to:

  • Experiential Learning: Studies examining the impact of lab courses, performing and fine arts, project-based learning, community-based learning, high-impact practices, and blended learning modalities on student learning outcomes.
  • Research on Teaching and Learning: Surveys, interviews, and case studies investigating teaching practices, student engagement, and the impact of pedagogical approaches on student success.
  • Faculty Development: Research exploring the effectiveness of professional development programs in enhancing teaching and learning.
  • Assessment of Higher Education Programs: Case studies or research that assesses higher education programs that are new or recently modified.

See the Call for Proposals for full submission details. 

Accepted proposals will be scheduled as part of the Concurrent Panel sessions, held virtually on Friday, May 23, 2025. The panel sessions are well suited for completed or in-progress projects and should highlight key aspects of your project. Participants are limited to 15 minutes each, with a brief Q&A period at the end of the session. Panels will consist of three to four presentations on a common theme, as determined by the conference planning committee. Please anonymize the proposal text by removing references to proposal authors or institutions to allow for anonymous review.

The deadline for submissions has been extended.  by 11:59 p.m. on Friday, February 28, 2025 for full consideration.
