Abstract (2. Language):
This qualitative study aims to explore teachers’ opinions on traditional professional
development (PD) courses and their experiences from an online course. 10 teachers
from a private school participated in an online professional development (PD) course.
After completing the course, they evaluated their PD experience. A focus group
discussion and individual interviews were performed to collect data. The teachers
determined the problems in traditional PD courses and online PD courses. They
generally emphasized the lack of practice in both traditional and online PD courses.
Further, abundance of theoretical concepts and context independent examples are
determined as other problems. They proposed that PD programs should be developed
together by both academician and expert teacher.
