Take a bigΓÇôpicture look at teaching and learning. Building on existing pedagogical research, this volume showcases the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) across the disciplinesΓÇôΓÇôand takes it in a new direction. In each chapter, interdisciplinary teams of authors address a single pedagogical question, bringing each of their home disciplineΓÇÖs specific literature and methodologies to the table. The result is a fresh examination of evidenceΓÇôbased practices for teaching and learning in higher education that is intentionally inclusive of faculty from different disciplines. By taking a closer, more systematic look at the pedagogies used within the disciplines and their impacts on student learning, the authors herein move away from more generic teaching tips and generic classroom activities and toward values, knowledge, and manner of thinking within SoTL itself. The projects discussed in each chapter, furthermore, will provide models for further research via interdisciplinary collaboration. This is the 151st volume of this JosseyΓÇôBass higher education series. It offers a comprehensive range of ideas and techniques for improving college teaching based on the experience of seasoned instructors and the latest findings of educational and psychological researchers.

This book experts work together in an integrated effort to develop learning environments centered on challenge based instruction.
With pedagogical philosophy and practice changing significantly, faculty development has become much more important.
College and university instructors continue to seek models that help students to better understand today's complex social relationships. Feminist, Queer, and Ethnic Studies scholars put forward compellingarguments for more integrative understandings of race, class, gender, and sexuality and for centering the experiences of women, people of color, and others traditionally relegated to the margins. Intersectionality is one such approach. In nine chapters, the contributors to this volume offer an overview of key tenets of intersectionality and explore applications of this model in faculty and instructional development in higher education. Gathered from across the disciplines, they draw upon a range of approaches to social identity formation, different theoretical models, and a complement of lived experiences. When read together, thesechapters offer a systemic approach to change in higher education by addressing innovations at course, department, and institutional levels. Intersectionality does not advocate for a fl attening of differences.Instead, it argues for another layer of critical analyses that acknowledge the powerful interplay of the many aspects of social identity to address the rapidly shifting ways in which we talk about and describe identities in society and the complexity of classroom dynamics in the academy today. By illuminating the interconnected nature of systems of oppression, we shine a light on the potential for disrupting the status quo and create stronger alliances forsocial justice.
In the past several years researchers have not only investigated key variables influencing teaching and learning, they also have applied empirical findings to develop and refine systems of teaching and learning-approaches that provide the infrastructure for the day-to-day organization. This title presents an overview of these systems.

This volume examines the claims made for liberal learning and argues that we may indeed have good ground for our claims that liberal learning can play a transformative role in our students' lives if we can develop a conversational relationship between those in liberal studies and those who work with student development theory.
