The Emerging Scholars Fund
ISSOTL’s goal is to “foster inquiry and disseminate findings about what improves and articulates post-secondary learning and teaching.” We recognize the importance of engaging emerging scholars who are interested in the scholarship of teaching and learning. We are dedicated to supporting this new talent and encouraging the engagement of students through sharing of ideas, networking, and learning at the annual ISSOTL conference.
The Emerging Scholars Fund facilitates this engagement by inviting members to apply for a conference fee waiver to attend the ISSOTL conference. Successful applicants will share in the ISSOTL discourse by actively participating in the conference activities. This includes attending the Student Welcome event at the start of the conference, the poster session and reception, and the conference closing session. Upon culmination of the conference, recipients will provide a brief reflection on their conference experience, in video or audio format, or in writing, which may be published on the ISSOTL website. Subject to accepting the ESF conditions, successful applicants will receive ISSOTL Conference Fees plus have their ISSOTL Membership Fees paid for 2 years.
The call for 2023 applications is now open. Learn more and apply here.
