Jisc have just published a new report into academic teaching staff experience over the last 2 years in the UK. This extensive survey shows that 82% of teaching took place wholly online – most of it delivered by staff from home. While just over half of teaching staff who took part agreed that they had received support, not all felt they had received appropriate guidance, support or time to explore new practices. The report goes on to describe their experience in quite some detail and includes a significant amount of useful guidance and recommendations that can probably be applied in universities everywhere who struggle with the continued support of teaching staff in their move to online teaching. Read the full report here.
