This chapter examines the importance of scholarship to learning and teaching in Criminology, specifically as it informs classroom practices pertaining to skills enhancement, experiential learning, online modes, adaptability to real-world developments and interdisciplinary approaches. The importance of dialogue is made evident whereby the role of the student as an active learner is emphasised and teachers seek to empower students to take responsibility for their own learning. A central aspect of student-centred and dialogue-based approaches is that teachers are adaptable, not only in terms of real-world developments, but also in relation to the learner audience. Scholarship of teaching and learning to Criminology is the foundation for effective practices that enhance student learning outcomes.
