Teacher Education Online: A Practical Guide for Instruction addresses the need for guidance on teaching high quality online courses in teacher education programs. In the past few years, an increasing number of courses are being offered in the virtual classroom and university faculty must be prepared to support student learning online. The book walks the reader through incorporating engaging, effective, and evidence-based instructional practices into their online teacher education courses. Through presentation of research and practical examples, the authors guide readers through the development and implementation of high quality online coursework for preservice and inservice teachers. Each chapter includes a case study for readers to practice implementing strategies described in the book, as well as space for readers to create plans for incorporating those strategies into their own courses.
