What challenges do you face in creating or supporting SoTL research design?

Why might we need a tool to support SoTL research design?

  • Perceived “lack of knowledge about SoTL" is a barrier (KSU survey)
  • Fear of “novice-stry” (Tremonte, 2011)
  • SoTL is under-supported at many schools (Cruz, Steiner, & Cruz, under review)
  • Not giving enough thought to aspects like positionality (Haigh & Withell, 2020)

History of Hopscotch 4-SoTL

Hopscotch is a conceptual model and web-tool used by researchers around the world in interactive labs and online to help researchers create well-informed research designs.

  • 2014: created for graduate students
  • 2018: expanded to mixed-method and quantitative
  • 2021: Hopscotch 4-SoTL

  • Hopscotch 4-SoTL can be used to:
    • Study the steps of a well-informed research design
    • Generate qualitative, quantitative or mixed-methods research designs
    • Generate visual and textual representations of your research design as a whole, and as specific elements
Let's take a look!
