Webinar on Professional Developmet for Blended and Online Learning
Nancy Dana and I recently led a webinar hosted by the Michigan Virtual Learning Research Institute in which we provided a synopsis of research related to professional development and mentoring in K–12 brick-and-mortar environments and used this knowledge as a springboard to engage participants in a discussion about design and research implications for the professional development and mentoring for K-12 online teachers.
This webinar was based, in part, on our recent chapters in the Handbook of Research on K-12 Online and Blended Learning:
