Abstract

The 2017 Mauksch Address invites readers to consider how the field of sociology might benefit from greater inclusion of the science of learning into its pedagogy. Results from a survey of 92 teaching and learning experts in sociology reveal the degree to which the discipline's understanding of teaching and learning is informed by the science of learning. The address suggests strategies for increased student success. [This Mauksch address was presented at the 2017 American Sociological Association Annual Meeting in Montreal, Canada.]
