Outstanding Remote Teaching
During the 2020 spring semester, more than 2,400 instructors rapidly converted approximately 4,500 course sections to online formats. TLOS knew we were not aware of all of the creative and innovative work that took place during the shift to emergency remote teaching. In order to recognize these contributions, we asked faculty members and students to tell us about instructors who deserved accolades for their outstanding efforts. We received more than 189 responses recognizing the 158 individual instructors listed below. Thank you for the contributions of these instructors to Virginia Tech's teaching mission, given in the spirit of Ut Prosim (That I May Serve).
