An article published by Kern, et al. (2015) provides insightful consideration of the role the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) plays in the academy.

Ideas for Documenting Teaching checklist

The Ideas for Documenting Teaching checklist refers to many types of documentation from the perspective of the faculty member, colleagues, and students. Most teaching awards, annual evaluations, and promotion and tenure documents have guidelines telling you what you must include, but may allow for additional information. Provide explanations and examples as you are able. Do not assume that the reader will understand why the items included demonstrate the quality and impact of your teaching.
