Abstract
<jats:p>The SoTL Guide is a practical, accessible, and engaging book that explicitly guides readers through clear steps to develop their own scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) project. The book is applicable to readers from across disciplines, nations, career stages, and familiarity with SoTL through clear language, defined terms, uncovered assumptions, and practical, illustrative examples. The authors invite readers to share an expansive and inclusive view of what “doing SoTL” might mean, which they see as beginning before even thinking about a project and extending well after a project is “finished.” The book is also more than a step-by-step manual for doing SoTL; it will help readers more broadly understand what SoTL is and does, and why. The book explores the important, intermediate aspect of improvement in SoTL: the improvement of oneself as a professional academic teacher, of one’s teaching practices, and most importantly of one’s students’ learning. The authors argue for the important “going public” part of SoTL as an act of good will and generosity—as potential for collective improvement.</jats:p>
