Starting with practicing SoTL, she describes using SoTL to make a difference, for example, by using it to inform curricula. She also describes how to be strategic in one’s SoTL agenda by aligning with institutional and disciplinary priorities, as well as by scaffolding research funding. All strategies are illustrated with examples from her own practice. Taken together, the strategies provide an “inclusive roadmap” to inspire new scholars’ next and future steps in a SoTL journey.
