Result of two surveys among the "teachers" at the Faculty of Engineering from 30.09.2021 and 07.10.2021

Survey among all "teachers" of the faculty of the engineering in the WS 21/22 (63 participants, last updated 07.10.2021)

How do you feel about giving lectures to a room with students sitting 1.5 meters apart (e.g. in HS 026 this would be 27 people) without masks and 3G (not 2G) tested?

If they wear masks, it's fine with me.

I would prefer 2G.

1.5 metres with masks would be preferable to me.

How do you feel about giving lectures to a room filled to 75% of its capacity (e.g. in HS 026 this would be 150 people) with masks and 3G (not 2G) tested?

Seats in all lecture rooms should be marked for both models accordingly before the lecture periode begins, i.e., 1.50m distance and 75% capacity.;;1;;Seats in all lecture rooms should be marked for both models accordingly before the lecture periode begins, i.e., 1.50m distance and 75% capacity.

1. Implies complicated hybrid mode in my case having about 100 attendees. 2. How do I organise the turns, maybe more than 27 people want to meet me in the lecture hall?";1;;;If I have to check each time 3G I'll have to start 1/2 hour earlier. And I have to do it each time because I'm not allowed to keep track of the attendees 3G status. Why is there not an automaton provided that does this for us - for the students an for me. Walking by waving your smartphone showing the QR-Code or just by NFC... come on, we are Faculty of Engineering and it's no longer stone age!

I never thought I would miss students. But here we are.

Wearing masks during the lectures seems very uncomfortable for me, I would avoid that.

Wearing masks during a whole lecture (1.5 hours) would be a hard thing to do for students whom should be concentrating as much as they can. But since in person/offline lectures are really important specially for newcomers, then I would do it.

This is just crazy.

2G would make this a "Fine with me".

If it would have to switch to online again because of a higher incidence rate in the future, this can be a hassle. In current circumstances, I prefer online classes.;;;1;If it would have to switch to online again because of a higher incidence rate in the future, this can be a hassle.

Survey among the professors of computer science (15 participants, last updated 30.09.2021)

How do you feel about giving lectures to a room with students sitting 1.5 meters apart (e.g. in HS 026 this would be 27 people) without masks and 3G (not 2G) tested?

I am not yet sure whether restricting access to somewhat more than 10% of the students is worth the effort.

I could possibly change my mind. Moreover, the online lecture is then the main event and the quality of the main event will (most probably) suffer from the hybrid format.

Only if I am forced by the University.

But kind of inefficient to only have 27 people in such a large room.

I would still only be comfortable doing it in case of 2G.

It's not worth the effort, if the number of people in the room is significantly less than 25% of the participants of the lecture.

How do you feel about giving lectures to a room filled to 75% of its capacity (e.g. in HS 026 this would be 150 people) with masks and 3G (not 2G) tested?

Actually I cannot answer the question yet. It depends on how the university performs 3G checks. If the checks are "only for some lectures and/or only a sample of all participants", because our university cannot afford more, I would expect that the probability for checks tends to zero. In that case I would not take the risk by myself.

I don't think students would enjoy taking lectures wearing their masks; I believe most would learn better in an online setting.

I don't want to have to police them wearing masks, since there are bound to be cases of people taking off their masks, and be it only for a legitimate reason such as taking a drink and then forgetting.

Really only if I am forced by the University.

This is much more efficient. Requires that I need not care about checking certificates.

I'm assuming that someone else does the 3G checking.

I will not do that.

I will not ask my tutors to do that either.
