The ISSOTL Board is creating a fellowship of leaders who have made exemplary contributions to the scholarship of teaching in learning at the local, national, regional, and/or international levels. This fellowship – at its core – is a community of learners committed to scholarship, mentorship, leadership, and engagement in SoTL in its many forms. Our aim is to develop an ISSOTL Fellows program that will benefit all members of ISSOTL and have an impact on the landscape of higher education internationally. Fellows are champions, allies, and advocates for SoTL and they are mentors for emerging SoTL leaders. Furthermore, these fellows represent diverse models of excellence in their disciplinary fields, professional roles, and scholarly engagement. The two Fellowship Coordinators, Dr. Heather Smith (UNBC) and Dr. Jessica Riddell (Bishop's) are hosting a community consultation process to engage members of ISSOTL in the creation and implementation of this fellows program.
If you teach history or history pedagogy, please come along to this meeting to exchange ideas, initiatives, research and experiences and explore ways in which we might be able to work together in the future.
