Our March SoTL SIG session focused on how practitioners can embed the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) more intentionally and sustainably within everyday teaching practice. The session was led by Dr Jo‑Anne Kelder, who presented a structured approach to SoTL organised around four interconnected practices: designing, doing, disseminating, and documenting.
