OCUFA Report on COVID-19 Pandemic
24 November 2020 • CMCFA Equity Officer
The ongoing pandemic has caused disruptions in how university faculty carry out their professional duties. This fall, OCUFA commissioned a survey to gather the experiences of faculty members across the province to evaluate the impact of adjustments (like moving course delivery online) on the experience and quality of university education in the province. Unsurprisingly, the results reveal a perception of decline in education quality, and a marked increase in stress and difficulty adjusting on the part of faculty members.
The press release from OCUFA is available here and a more detailed report of the findings (available only in English) can be found here
Please note that the survey recently circulated at RMC is a separate effort, and results from that effort will be released in due course.
