A COMPARISON BETWEEN TEACHER DEVELOPMENT FACE TO FACE AND ONLINE

Abstract

Anotation: In this article explores the differences between face-to-face (FTF) and
online teacher development (OTD) modes of delivery. It examines the benefits and
drawbacks of both modes, citing examples where these apply. The authors argue that
while each mode has its strengths and weaknesses, combining both modes can lead to
a more effective professional development experience. The article concludes that a
combination of face-to-face and online teacher development can offer teachers
increased access to learning opportunities, flexibility, and support from collaborative
networks.
