Further exploration into both the literature and our own experiences revealed that the state ofSoTL within a particular institution seems to rely less on its categorization as a, for example, college, university, or technical institute, and more on the intricate web offactors that constitute the institution’s context. While other researchers have put forth this call to consider institutional context to determine support for SoTL practices and processes, a detailed process or tool for doing sowas not apparent. Adopting Bolman and Deal’s (2008) framework for organizational structure, and combining this with data-gathering processes popularized by Smith’s (2005) institutional ethnography, as well as a series of guiding questions, our tool represents an initial step in systematically representing SoTL-enabling and impeding artifacts commonly found in post-secondary institutions. Assuming SoTL leaders modify this tool based on their own entry points, a call is put forward to the Canadian post-secondary SoTL community to field-test the tool in order to facilitate reflection upon how a variety offactors encourage and impede SoTL advancement at our unique institutions, the interconnections between these factors and how we might use these to solve the pedagogical problems we face.  \nAprès avoir mené une discussion collaborative et examiné la documentation publiée, un petit grouped’éducateurs de collèges de trois provinces canadiennes, qui jouent des rôles aux niveaux micro, meso et macro dans leurs établissements respectifs, ont identifié le besoin de développer un outil qui prend en considération le contexte institutionnel à la fois pour déterminer l’état de l’avancement des connaissances en enseignement et en apprentissage (ACEA) et pour se préparer à sa croissance.
