Abstract

This chapter reflects on a practitioner's journey in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) and explores the transformative role of the SoTL in advancing actuarial education across Asia. Drawing on over years of teaching experience, I share insights into how I have integrated technology and global perspectives into the curriculum. The narrative highlights my strategic use of GitHub Classroom to foster international collaboration and enhance student engagement through practical, real-world applications. By illustrating specific SoTL projects and their impacts on both my professional growth and student success, this chapter underscores the potential of SoTL not only to adapt actuarial education to meet regional demands but also to elevate it into a practice that is globally competent and culturally responsive. The insights presented aim to contribute to the ongoing dialogue on the importance of SoTL in navigating the complexities of higher education in Asia.
