Abstract

This paper describes the preparation and implementation of professional and graduate programs by the College of Education (COE) at the University of Hawai`i at Manoa for teachers on the neighboring islands of Hawai`i. The phenomenal growth in online and blended programs in the College and the recent change in course management system at the University has created added stress for busy faculty. The investment in providing quality professional development has been fruitful. The Online Master’s in Educational Technology is one of ten online programs offered by the COE. The program of study duplicates the campus-based program but a flexible schedule accommodates the unique needs of neighbor island students. Several observations are shared about the OTEC program that may provide insight to those interested in designing an online program.
