U.S. teachers' perceptions of online professional development

Description:
Despite the growing interest in online platforms as venues for professional learning, little is known about how teachers interpret their online PD experiences, how they do and do not utilize what they learn, and what kinds of experiences they do and do not prefer. Research investigating these questions could provide insight into and guidance for providing PD in online environments, which is especially important given the current movement toward online learning environments. Therefore, we considered the following research questions: 1. What are teachers' reflections on their experiences with online PD? 2. What are teachers' perceptions of different approaches to online PD? 3. How are teachers' reflections on their experiences related to their perceptions of different approaches to online PD?
