The effects of the COVID 19 pandemic led Cuban Higher Education to take emerging measures to continue the teaching-learning process. Consequently, the undergraduate courses had to rethink the curricular designs according to the existing possibilities. The change to the distance learning modality constituted an enormous challenge for university education, with an emphasis on engineering education where students must acquire a set of skills, abilities and attitudes that allow them to fulfill their social responsibilities in the exercise of the profession. The Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the Universidad Central "Marta Abreu" de Las Villas takes on the challenge and begins to design courses on the Moodle platform and redesign the existing ones according to the new study modality, which led to the need to seek a common structure for those designs so that students would quickly become familiar with them. In this paper, the experiences in the design of virtual classrooms for engineering education are presented and the teaching results obtained by the students and their satisfaction with the contents received in two distance-taught course are discussed.
