But it is difficult to review and hence to trust it. 

Difficult for scholars in different principles to write an informed article regarding teaching. ]]> 2022-09-01 11:07:23 UTC https://padlet.com/ceul1/4rl4xgq79na4dnus/wish/2279117501 Not so much actually.

The idea that all university teachers should be publishing well-designed research is unrealistic. But that we should be engaged in scholarly aspects of teaching and sharing that locally seems reasonable.
 
Further, the strict idea of SoTL seems to step on the toes of pedagogy researchers.]]> 2022-09-01 11:08:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ceul1/4rl4xgq79na4dnus/wish/2279118496 Working on it.

It's roots reach deep into the ground and a lot of soil has covered them, so the authors of the articles mention that there is confusion what this term actually means, as scholars, researchers and teachers put different foci and privilege certain aspects over others. I think, the SoTL tree and its many different branches can be productive and helpful to understand teaching as a practice better, if we make use of these branches as ressources to elevate our own practice and become aware what ressources are out there, instead of cutting them down. ]]> 2022-09-01 11:09:57 UTC https://padlet.com/ceul1/4rl4xgq79na4dnus/wish/2279119411 No time! https://padlet.com/ceul1/4rl4xgq79na4dnus/wish/2279119499 I would like to be scholarly in my teaching and have notions of doing so, but when it comes time to prepare classes I simply don't have time at the moment. I'm still new to teaching, so perhaps once I start repeating courses I will have more space to incorporate a scholarly approach.]]> 2022-09-01 11:10:06 UTC https://padlet.com/ceul1/4rl4xgq79na4dnus/wish/2279119499 hannahenryson https://padlet.com/ceul1/4rl4xgq79na4dnus/wish/2279120211 The distinction between scholarly approach and scholarly output resonates the most with me. Personally, I think it is important to do both and I have previously published on didactics in my specific field. However, I am not sure that everyone, every teacher and every researcher, needs to do both. Scholarly output should maybe be reserved for those with a special interest and a certain competence. Perhaps it is also more relevant or important in certain academic fields. A scholarly approach, in contrast, seems more like a requirement to me (doesn't that more or less equal "forskningsanknytning"?). We should be aware of our teaching principles, choose and use methods with caution, evaluate our teaching and implement changes as needed. This seems like a minimum for a university teacher/teaching researcher.]]> 2022-09-01 11:11:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ceul1/4rl4xgq79na4dnus/wish/2279120211 Feels like the concept is chasing something which with the current academic system is difficult to achieve, we lack time and resources to engage in treating our teaching as research, and to write about it in that way. https://padlet.com/ceul1/4rl4xgq79na4dnus/wish/2279120245 2022-09-01 11:11:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ceul1/4rl4xgq79na4dnus/wish/2279120245 https://padlet.com/ceul1/4rl4xgq79na4dnus/wish/2279120393 I have ambitions in that direction, but alas, time constraints often hamper them.

The point of the paper is to argue for the taxonomy, which makes sense. However, the bigger point seems to be to argue for more scholarly scrutinity of teaching by teachers.
