The development of widespread internet combined with advancements in telecommunications and video technology meant that, for the first time, work, socialization and also instruction could continue, if slightly altered, to adjust to a ‘remote’ rather than ‘in person’ format. This quantitative study used a faculty survey to examine the move both to remote instruction and back from remote instruction. This study relied on data collected in several institutions of Higher Education as well as K – 12 schools to answer the following research questions: 1. Did COVID-19 have an impact on the use of technology? 2. Did COVID-19 have an impact on teaching methods? 3. Are the differences on the impact of COVID-19 dependent on a person’s characteristics? The results indicated that both the use of technology as well as instructional methods changed very little during the pandemic. As found in other research, the negative impact of the pandemic was more pronounced for females instructors.116 pagesengIN COPYRIGHT- This Rights Statement can be used for an Item that is in copyright.
