Abstract	Almost every aspect of life has been disrupted due to the erupting of COVID-19 pandemic; education is arguably one of the most effected fields. The shift towards online education had become the focus of many studies to examine the students' perceived learning outcomes as well as their satisfaction in virtual learning settings. This study investigates the effect of the abrupt switch to online teaching on the written production of the curriculum and instruction postgraduate students' research writing for the academic year 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The sample comprises 53 PhD and Post-Graduate students in the department of curriculum and instructions in the faculty of educational Sciences at Mut'ah University in Jordan. The data were collected using a close-ended questionnaire which elicits responses on a five-point Likert Scale. A thorough examination of the instrument's reliability and validity was conducted. Results showed that students and universities administrations have been quickly adapted themselves to the new changes, with perceptible positive attitudes among the PhD and Post-Graduate students regarding the virtual activities applied in teaching and learning writing. This study provides a source for university instructors, syllabus designer and policy makers on the importance of integrating online learning in as part on the universities conventional.
