Call for Proposals
Our proposal system for the 2024 conference is now closed.
Decisions for 2024 proposals were sent June 12, 2024. Please check your email for
notification about your proposal.
*****************************************************************************************************************************
We invite you to submit your proposal for the 2024 SoTL Summit virtual conference!
This year there are four proposal types: SoTL Sessions, Scholarly Teaching Sessions,
SoTL Posters and Scholarly Teaching Posters.
All proposals should focus on teaching and/or student learning in higher education
and should address how pedagogy developed in the context of one discipline can be
adapted to other disciplines. Only proposals aimed at higher education audiences are
eligible for this conference.
We will once again use Oxford Abstracts for proposal submission and review. When you click to submit your proposal, you will
be asked to log in or create an account in Oxford Abstracts before proceeding.
Submission Deadline:
April 30, 2024
Proposal Notifications:
June 15, 2024
Note that much of the work to build the program occurs during the months of June and
July, so presenters must be able to respond to emails regarding the conference during
this time.
SoTL Sessions
SoTL Sessions are 20-minute sessions appropriate for sharing the findings of inquiry-based
SoTL studies. SoTL Sessions can be rooted in any discipline and should clearly adhere
to good practices of SoTL. We welcome scholarly approaches from all disciplines. Studies
can be multidisciplinary or focus on a single discipline; those that focus on a single
discipline should include ways the findings can be adapted to other disciplinary contexts.

Scholarly Teaching Sessions
Scholarly Teaching sessions provide presenters a chance to share innovative teaching
ideas or classroom experiences that are grounded in reflective practice and/or the
literature on teaching and learning. Grouped with other similar sessions, these 10-minute
“lightning talks” will allow attendees to gain a variety of new ideas that they can
immediately implement in their classrooms. This format is ideal for those who have
a great teaching idea to share that has not been subject to more formal inquiry.

SoTL Posters
SoTL Posters allow presenters to share their findings from inquiry-based SoTL studies
in a visual format without live interaction. Poster presentations will include a
one-page static visual display (created as a slide in PowerPoint or similar program
and saved as a PDF) and a brief YouTube or Vimeo video (less than five minutes in
duration) explaining the poster. Poster presenters will be expected to respond via
text comments to participant questions during their scheduled 30-minute poster session.
Review guidelines for SoTL posters are the same as those for SoTL Sessions.
