Summary: | This research paper examines how engineering instructors initially experienced a forced change from in-person teaching to emergency remote teaching by collecting instructors' self-reported successes and challenges. Participants included engineering instructors from an R1 institution who completed weekly online surveys during the last seven weeks of the Spring 2020 semester. An inductive thematic analysis of the instructors' responses to two open-ended items was completed from which the three most frequently cited themes from each of the successes and the challenges are presented and discussed. Understanding the most common successes and challenges experienced by instructors during emergency remote instruction lays the foundation for designing supportive strategies for future instructional change initiatives in engineering education. |
