SoTL Hackathon

If you could hack any problem related to your teaching to streamline your course and improve your students’ learning, what would it be?

A hackathon is a focused design sprint during which participants collaborate to identify problems and design solutions. This day-long, interactive workshop will introduce faculty to the “what, why and how” of SoTL with a special focus on identifying a research question, developing appropriate methods and discovering where and how to access and interpret data related to teaching and learning.

Led by an interdisciplinary team of facilitators from Biggio, University Writing, Office of Academic Assessment, Office of Institutional Research, Libraries, OVPR and COSAM’s Discipline-Based Educational Researchers, participants will engage with a range of SoTL case studies and facilitated team-based challenges designed to introduce new and experienced faculty to the field of SoTL and provide a jumping-off point for getting started with your own SoTL research project at Auburn.

This event is held prior to the start of the fall semester. Check back later for more details on the next SoTL Hackathon.
