Teaching and Learning for Social Justice and Equity in Higher Education

This book is the third in a four volume series that focuses on research-based teaching and learning practices that promote social justice and equity in higher education. In this volume, we focus on the application of the scholarship of teaching and learning in higher education outside of the classroom to maximize the effectiveness of student affairs programming. Specifically, authors focus on the application of SoTL in higher education outside of the classroom (e.g., faculty development, leadership, student involvement, student affairs) in ways that promote greater equity and inclusion in higher education. Each chapter includes a description of how higher education may traditionally marginalize students from underrepresented groups, outlines a research-based plan to improve student experiences, and provides a program or activity plan to implement the recommendations from each chapter.

Applies the foundational work of the first two volumes in this set in the co-curricular context Provides examples of best practices in teaching and learning to student affairs practices and programs Presents an inclusive classroom framework directed towards increasing faculty awareness
