The scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) began primarily as a discipline-based movement, committed to exploring the signature pedagogical and learning styles of each discipline within higher education, with little exchange across disciplines. As the field has developed, new questions have arisen concerning cross-disciplinary comparison and learning in multidisciplinary settings This volume by a stellar group of experts provides a state-of-the-field review of recent SoTL scholarship within a range of disciplines and offers a stimulating discussion of critical issues related to interdisciplinarity in teaching, learning, and SoTL research.

Kathleen McKinney is Professor of Sociology and Cross Endowed Chair in Scholarship of Teaching at Illinois State University. Her books include Enhancing Learning through the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning.

"[Represents] the continuation of an important conversation about the nature of scholarship, a renewed and increasingly sophisticated understanding of teaching, and a shift of focus from teaching to learning that has been occurring in the academy for at least a decade. . . . [S]hows the extent to which a common language and methodologies have emerged as SoTL has matured."

~Margaret Miller, University of Virginia
