教與學的學術研究（Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, SoTL）是近年來西方學術界新興的研究趨勢，鼓勵高等教育機構的教師不僅探究本身學科專業領域的知識，也應針對教學過程進行研究，瞭解教師如何教學以促進學生有效學習的知能，最後將教與學的研究結果公開化、分享給學術社群。正逢「教與學的學術研究」概念興起之際，教育部也自民國94 年起推出「獎勵大學教學卓越計畫」，開始重視提升高等教育教學品質，以平衡高等教育機構教學與研究的重要性。基此，本文運用文獻分析法，首先探討教與學的學術研究之意涵；其次，說明教與學的學術研究之影響因素與模式；繼而探討教與學的學術研究目前所面對之挑戰；最後，提出其對我國高等教育的啟示。期能藉此提升教學在高等教育機構中的地位，同時也將教與學的學術研究作為教師專業發展的新取徑和開闢教師另一個研究領域。 Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) is the emerging research trend in west academia recently. SoTL encourages faculty in higher education institutions not only to inquire discipline-based knowledge, but also to undertake research into teaching process. So teachers know how to teach to promote students’effective learning, and then disseminate the results about teaching and learning in scholarly community. While the conception of SoTL has been developing, Ministry of Education in Taiwan has initiated “Teaching and Learning for Excellence Project” since 2005, and has begun to raise teaching quality in higher education in order to balance the importance of teaching and research. Using document analysis, this paper firstly analyzes the meanings of SoTL; secondly, it explores the impact factors and models of SoTL; thirdly, it inquires the challenges in SoTL; and finally, it provides the implications of SoTL for higher education. The author hopes that it can raise the status of teaching in higher education institutions, and can become a new approach of faculty professional development and another research domain for faculty.
