Across higher education, scholars of teaching and learning are increasingly called upon to work with courage—asking difficult questions, experimenting with new pedagogies, and challenging assumptions about how learning happens. Our 2026 Symposium theme recognizes SoTL as a space where inquiry, reflection, and community come together to support meaningful change in teaching and learning. This theme encourages participants to explore how SoTL can function as a powerful act of intentional practice, intervention, and influence. Through systematic inquiry into teaching and learning, SoTL scholars examine how educational environments shape what is possible for students and educators alike. The 2026 SoTL Symposium invites us to consider how SoTL can act as both an intellectual response to turbulent times and a form of scholarly resistance and reform—generating knowledge that challenges assumptions, opening new possibilities for learning, and strengthening the role of higher education as a space for curiosity, creativity, and critical thought. Proposals are encouraged from students, faculty, staff, administrators, and community partners committed to advancing scholarly inquiry into teaching and learning. We welcome submissions that demonstrate collaborative approaches across disciplines, institutions, and communities, particularly those that engage students as partners in inquiry. While submissions across all areas of SoTL are invited, preference will be given to proposals that resonate with the symposium theme. We invite presentations in any of the four following formats: If you are ready to disseminate your research, or parts thereof, consider an oral presentation. Whether a single presenter or a research team, you will have access to a mid-sized room with row seating for attendees, and a visual projection system. (maximum 30 mins presentation + 10 mins for discussion). In this popular roundtable discussion format, presenters will be seated at a table to have conversations and share their projects in an informal, low-tech format. This is especially suitable for work-in-progress, calls for collaboration, or those newer to SoTL. Multiple roundtables will run simultaneously in a larger room, and you’ll have the opportunity to engage with three small audiences during the session. The poster session is a long-standing and popular tradition of the SoTL Symposium. Presenters are invited to go public with their ideas during an evening event with refreshments and hors d'oeuvres. What do you want to share? And how do you wish to engage with attendees at the event? Interactive and creative posters are encouraged but not required (think: stickies, QR codes, opening flaps). Most important is that you have ideas to share and you’re looking for direct feedback through conversation. There are a limited number of pre-conference workshops offered. Submit a proposal if you are interested in offering one of these 3-hour sessions. Pre-conference workshop proposals should be active in design. We invite proposals that match one of the Conference tracks (see below) from individuals or teams of scholars. Scholarship is at the center of all successful proposals. We do not accept faculty development workshops at this symposium. Rather, we follow Peter Felten’s (2013) Principles of Good SoTL Practice in seeking abstracts that demonstrate the following elements: The following is required for all submission formats: At least three experienced SoTL practitioners will anonymously review all proposals for relevance, fit to conference track, quality, and (when appropriate) audience engagement. While they review the session description, they will consider the following questions and criteria: Felten, P. (2013).
