Optimizing Teaching and Learning: Practicing Pedagogical Research

“This book will be an invaluable resource for those faculty who do not know how to get started in SoTL. For faculty who are already involved in SoTL research, the book provides a wealth of research strategies that can provide new research avenues. I can’t wait to have this book on my shelf!”

Randolph A. Smith, Lamar University

“This is a hugely engaging volume which deals with both pedagogical research and findings from the pedagogical research literature. It is highly accessible and the committment of the authors, expressed in their dedication, to those who ‘care about teaching and student learning’ shines through. The best tribute to such a volume is that it will be used and that teacher-researchers will in turn develop their own more nuanced and critical instruments and research questions.”

Sue Clegg, Leeds Metropolitan University

“Overall, this book provides a great deal of information regarding teaching and learning practices, a pedagogical approach, and a touch of the application of research…Helpful pearls of wisdom within.”
