Description\Summary
This book seeks to answer the following questions: What are the defining elements of scholarship of teaching and its possibilities?

In addition, authors Mary Taylor Huber and Pat Hutchings introduce a new concept that expands on teh scholarship of teaching and learning-the teaching commons.
