Abstract
Using the lens of the virtual workplace model, the current convergent mixed methods study examined how COVID-19 self-isolation affected both online and land-based faculty’s (working online due to COVID) workspace and work process. A total of 20 online and 6 land-based faculty completed email interviews and responded to Likert-type questions. Results indicated that online faculty were more satisfied with their home workplace but that both groups felt more negative about their online work, as they felt a loss of freedom and independence due to the isolation. As an increasing number of individuals work from home, understanding the experience is essential. (28 minutes)
