Description
Administered by American University’s Center for Faculty Excellence, the Milton and Sonia Greenberg Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Award recognizes significant contributions to research-based analyses of teaching practices or curricular design. SoTL focuses on faculty systematically assessing and sharing their own teaching practices, examining the effects of instruction through classroom research.
The award highlights work that connects research questions, evidence, and conclusions with implications for classroom practice and broader contributions to the AU community or a field. Public sharing through articles, presentations, and other products is part of this scholarly approach. Previous recipients have investigated flipped classrooms, inclusive class participation, racial dynamics in marketing education, and pre-service teachers’ perceptions of dyslexia.
