First Steps to Exploring Teaching as a Scholarly Practice:
Research in STEM-H Teaching & Learning
How do you know when a teaching practice is working? As STEM-H faculty, we are often not formally trained in the practice and study of teaching. This 4-part series is designed to help practitioners examine their teaching through a scholarly lens, drawing upon educational research techniques.
The workshop series will help you address questions such as:
How do I empower and evaluate my teaching through scholarship?
How might I engage with the educational research community appropriate for my discipline?
What steps can I take to get started?
Join us as we help you break down this complex endeavor. You will leave this 4-part series with a broader perspective of where your interests fit in the educational research landscape and a structure for next-steps planning.
In this series, you will:
- Learn to identify key features of educational research landscape in STEM-H
- Develop research questions for your context and receive feedback
- Gain exposure to conceptual framework development and research design considerations
- Explore data collection (e.g., survey validity) and quantitative analysis options
