“…Several studies have explored teacher readiness characteristics that can be associated with the implementation of online teaching and learning (for an overview see Phan & Dang, 2017). However, these studies have focused only on individual educator characteristics and higher education (e.g., Martin et al, 2019).…”

In a very short time, secondary school education across the globe transitioned to online learning and teaching, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. This study aims at identifying teacher profiles in secondary education to better understand perceptions of both individual and institutional readiness to transition to online teaching. To do this, the current study grouped teachers on the basis of their TPACK self-efficacy beliefs, online presence and perceived institutional support for online teaching. To date, data have been collected from teachers (N = 222) from 20 countries. The data were submitted to latent profile analysis to identify readiness profiles. The added value of the current study lies in the combined view of individual and institutional readiness and the uniqueness of the dataset. It provides a large-scale international perspective and a wide range of possible experiences. Findings inform how education institutions can personalise and support transitions to online teaching.

“…First, a national study of the perceptions of online teaching among liberal arts faculty across the U.S. would contribute broader insight into the perceptions of this population. A study on liberal arts faculty members' readiness to teach online that focuses on perceptions of ability and confidence would also be a useful extension of research (Martin et al, 2019). Second, the survey instrument used in this study could be altered for closer alignment to the dimensions of the DTPB.…”

This mixed-methods study examined faculty perceptions of online teaching at a mid-sized liberal arts university in order to understand faculty acceptance and participation in online teaching at the university. Seventy-nine participants responded to a survey that collected qualitative and quantitative data. Content analysis examined faculty perceptions of online teaching and identified six themes. An examination of 21 quantitative factors identified 17 factors reported by more than 50% of respondents to influence their decision to teach or not teach online. Study participants perceived online learning as attractive to students but they wanted any online courses carefully regulated, in part because online learning was seen as contrary to their teaching values. Participants were influenced by personal preferences but also the desire for robust faculty resources, and more effective technology and infrastructure. Implications and directions for future research were discussed.

“…Kisanga and Ireson ( 2016 ) developed and validated TeLRA scale for assessing e-learning attitude of the teachers which was based on four factors. Martin et al ( 2019 ) developed faculty readiness instrument considering faculty attitude towards importance of online and their ability to teach online confidently. However, after examining different available tools of assessing attitude towards technology, it has been observed that very few are reliable in context to Indian conditions.…”
