Abstract
This study on barriers to online staff development for classroom teachers was conducted as part
of the planning activities of a delivery models project designed to develop guidelines for
implementing large-scale online staff development programs. The study involved engaging 54
general and special educators in several professional roles from nine states in a series of focus
groups to identify the barriers to online staff development. An instrument was designed to rank
order the barriers in terms of perceived significance. Twenty-two barriers were identified. This
project was in follow-up to the Online Academy (H029K73002) funded by the Office of Special
Education Programs in the U.S. Department of Education (OSEP/USDOE).
