"An Applied Introduction to the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning is a next-generation 'Yellow Book' designed to walk scholars through the process of beginning their own journey into SoTL and establishing themselves as scholars in the global SoTL community."—Trent W. Maurer, Professor of Human Development and Family Science, Georgia Southern University "There is no other comprehensive workbook like this available.
