This study looks at who and how often faculty use Zoom, Teams, and WebEx. Google Meet and other communications technologies. The study is designed to help answer questions such as: how much interaction between faculty members now takes place online rather than in person? How important is the use of communications technologies in the classroom post pandemic? How often are such technologies, and which ones, used in interfacing with students in critical non-classroom settings such as meeting with faculty during office hours or career or college advisory functions? The report gives specific data on the incidence and frequency of monthly use for each program and enables readers to track the type of faculty who are using each program. Discover the age, academic field, and type of educational institution of the most likely WebEx user in higher education vs. the same data for Zoom, Teams or Google Meet.
Just a few of this 115-page reports many findings are:
- 52.1% of faculty sampled report having used Microsoft Teams.
- Asian-origin faculty have much lower rates of out-of-class interaction with students vis a-vis videoconferencing than do Black, White or Latino faculty with their students.
- Among respondents earning more than $150,000 per year, 64.76% reported much more use of videoconferencing than pre-pandemic, while among those earning less than $50,000 per year, only 40.63% reported much more use.
Data in the report is broken out by a broad range of personal and institutional variables including age, gender, work title, academic field, personal income level, type of higher education institution, and other useful variables.
