Hi Paul,
Welcome to SCoPE and good to "see" you again! I'm still getting my mind around the idea of scholarship in teaching and learning, and this book seems to be the perfect place to start - thanks Cheryl.

Russell,
Your definition focusses on improving practice - feedback, and dissemination. Am I mistaken in thinking that scholarship would primarily be identifying, through research, what is good teaching and learning?

Sylvia,
This chapter sounds fun and practical. I'd be happy to help out with authoring. How are you thinking it will be organized?

[Bruce, I have moved your notes from the Greatest Insights wiki to this new topic as it is an important contribution for improving and defining SCoPE and future seminars. I encourage others to comment also. Vivian]
"BJ: 11/18__ Several items of interest have been brought forth. Not how to design or why ... but whether or not the ID and the SME get along. As important as this is I am still not sure it is relevant to the actual design process. The communication process is essential for ID/SME, ID/Facilitator, ID/Student and each is different and should be discussed separately.
IMHO the topic indicated a discussion on those things we use to effectively present content in a learning environment. I went back and reviewed the missives posted and found few relating to theory, strategy, tools, etc. These are the things we use to design and what I was expecting.
I guess I have heard the topics presented here too many times on too many forums, discussions and lists not to have heard each argument at least a dozen times.
Is it possible this is a symptom of problems within the practice of Instructional Design indicating that as IDs we are clueless? We perform a very important function but can not pass along or discuss the hows and whys? "

The Dance seminar has come to a close. Thanks to everyone who participated over the past three weeks. I've learned a great deal from each of you and I value the links to the rich resources that you've shared. I haven't have time to go over all of the resources, so I've made a note to go back and file them into my personal library.
The seminar discussion will be archived and will remain available for anyone to view. Also, feel free to share your most inspiring insights on the dance wiki at: http://scope.lidc.sfu.ca/mod/wiki/view.php?id=169
Finally, the next SCoPE seminar about the WebCT/Blackboard merger starts today at: http://scope.lidc.sfu.ca/mod/forum/view.php?f=48. I expect it will be a lively discussion!
