Submissions are invited for the inaugural meetings of the ISA’s ‘Sociological Teaching’ thematic group, which aims to bring together international sociologists who have an active research interest in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, specialize in teaching sociology, and/or incorporate sociological insights into their teaching practices. This thematic group also facilitates transnational discussions and exchange of both research findings and specific teaching practices, and encourages research, publication, and teaching collaboration in the interest of advancing sociological teaching and learning internationally. Possible session topics include and extend beyond theoretical and empirical work on the following:

  • Empirical investigation of teaching and learning practices (e.g. experiential learning, community-based learning, etc.)
  • Theoretical discussions and reflections on teaching and learning
  • Pedagogical innovations
  • Teaching using open resources
  • Digitization
  • Creating the virtual sociology classroom
  • Interdisciplinary approaches to teaching sociology
