Translating the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Principles into Specific Practices to Help Business Communication Students Innovate

Joshua M. Parcha Pennsylvania State University

Abstract

Business communication students should be taught how to innovate because the ability to do so is an important skill for business success. Despite knowing that business communication students need to learn how to innovate, instructors are not always equipped with the proper tools to teach students how to innovate based on sound principles. This article provides one such tool by translating the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) principles into specific practices designed to help students innovate. By understanding these practices, instructors will be well-equipped to foster student innovation in their own classrooms based on SoTL principles.
