Abstract
Building and enjoying the “big tent” together: A review of ISSOTL17
Highlights
In late 2016, I joined the ISSOTL17 program committee as a member of the society and as a student of the University of Calgary
A humbling aspect of SoTL is the winds that fill the sails of traditional academic hierarchies seemed to carry less weight at the ISSOTL conference
Gary Poole (2017) charged attendees to question who gets to be part of SoTL, and whether they engage in conversations that facilitate or hinder SoTL journeys, including work with students
Summary
In late 2016, I joined the ISSOTL17 program committee as a member of the society and as a student of the University of Calgary. A humbling aspect of SoTL is the winds that fill the sails of traditional academic hierarchies (e.g., full versus assistant professor, director of XYZ institute, number of publications) seemed to carry less weight at the ISSOTL conference. I felt the collegiality and a mutual ethos of learning waft through ISSOTL17.
