Faculty Survey Report for Remote Teaching

In June 2020 the Office of the VPAL prepared a Report on Faculty Survey Responses for Remote Teaching. This report summarizes responses from more than 700 faculty members from across Harvard’s schools and divisions on their experiences, successes, and challenges teaching online during the second half of the Spring 2020 semester (“Remote Spring”). The surveys were administered at weekly intervals during Remote Spring. Seven Harvard Schools participated in the surveys (FAS, SEAS, HBS, HKS, HDS, GSD, and DCE). Some Schools participated in all surveys, others at discrete points in time. Faculty were asked to share their responses on a range of questions including: teaching tips, requests for resources, aspects of residential teaching that they missed most, aspects of remote teaching that they viewed as surprising or positive, and several others.

The report is available to Harvard faculty and instructors.
