This case study highlights three processes in conducting a Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) research on comparative curricular and professional experiential outcomes in an online curriculum development course. In the original study, I compared the results of expected learning outcomes, as defined in a curriculum course syllabus, with the expressed experiential outcomes, in the context of students' educational leadership practice, at the end of the course. My focus in this case study is to narrate: (1) the ethical considerations I engaged to conduct a SoTL study in which my students were the participants; (2) the experiential processes I used in the development of the Consent Agreement for the online study; (3) the relevance and use of Concordance-Discordance Analysis using Somers' D statistic, in a mixed-method comparative SoTL study.
