Abstract
- Postdoctoral scholars are important members of the research community who make substantial contributions to research productivity. Three postdoctoral scholars at a Teaching and Learning Institute in Canada engaged in collaborative self-study to explore our initial experiences as postdoctoral scholars in the emerging fields of academic development and SoTL. This self-study reveals some of the challenges of integrating into the academic development world within the liminal space in which postdoctoral scholars generally exist. While postdoctoral scholars offer significant opportunities to increase research in teaching and learning, their roles in academic development and SoTL require further conceptualizing to ensure their success.
