Abstract	The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) is a new discipline, with seeds sown by educational theorists of the early twentieth century and blossoming in the 1990s. As an inherently interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary field focusing on higher education, SoTL interrogates a range of subjects, encompasses a variety of genres, and uses a swath of methodologies. What is lacking in the literature and its application, however, is sustained engagement with the great pedagogical thinkers of the past. Using the methods of textual analysis, this article explores the pedagogical advice of Augustine of Hippo in his "De catechizandis rudibus," categorizing Augustine's major themes in alignment with four key topics of SoTL: instructor disposition, learning environment, presentation of material, and knowing students. These convergences suggest that ancient thinkers are vastly underused sources of pedagogical knowledge and a possible entry point for educational developers working with faculty unfamiliar with or resistant to SoTL.
