We congratulate the recipient of the 2017 SoTL Award, Jody Langdon, Ph.D., associate professor in the School of Health and Kinesiology. The award recognizes faculty for the quality, quantity, impact, and application of their contributions to the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning. Dr. Langdon began her SoTL research at Georgia Southern as a SoTL Fellow in 2013 investigating the effects of the Flipped Classroom Model on perceptions of course experience, motivation, course performance, and basic need satisfaction. Since her experience as a fellow, she has continued researching in the SoTL field, leading to one publication and four conference presentations. Her most recent research focuses on metacognition and its ability to enhance student learning. Additional research is now being conducted on autonomy supportive teaching among undergraduate instructors. Dr. Langdon also serves on the Georgia Southern SoTL leadership team and has been a mentor to numerous emerging SoTL scholars. She will co-present her research at the SoTL conference at the end of the month.
