across all disciplines. These initiatives include digitallytransforming the faculty development program [1], rebuilding existing resources such as thelearning management system [2] and the university makerspace [3], and harnessing existingsocial networks [4]. Rather than documenting similar institutional initiatives for instructionaldevelopment, in this paper we investigated the process and the results of instructionaldevelopment among faculty members after a couple of years of involuntary changes in teachingand learning during the pandemic.Specifically, this study examined the following three aspects of instructional development amongfaculty members of a Canadian engineering school: (a) changes in teaching practices; (b) theevolving views
way the program was structured. Thedifficulty of navigating all of the pitfalls that can present themselves when attempting to weave aprogram like this across six different colleges and schools cannot be understated, but the benefitsof it outweigh the trouble. This program is a true space for camaraderie and support and canserve as a model for other universities looking to implement a similar program.Acknowledgements We would like to thank the University of Texas at Austin’s Office of the Vice Presidentand Provost for inviting us to interview fellows in their program.References[1] Main, Joyce B., Yanbing Wang, and Li Tan.
