Dear colleague,

Hope this email finds you in good health. We, as educators in higher education, are being compelled to make a quick transition to online mode of instruction under unprecedented circumstances. Given the significance of the transition, it is important to understand our perception of online teaching, and if we feel that we have sufficient training and resources to teach online effectively. We are conducting a research study to explore these issues. Your participation in our study on the following link will be greatly appreciated:
