Chapter 12 serves as a conclusion chapter for the entire text. This chapter reiterates the importance of acquisition and learning and, in particular, the importance of balancing acquisition and learning for online teacher training. This chapter also focuses on identifying future trends in online teacher training and potential directions for institutions, accreditation committees, and higher education in general to pursue. In addition, this chapter further argues for the flexibility of an online teacher training program utilizing acquisition and learning to present the argument that this concept is within reach for all universities that should want to further the training of their online instructors.


Chapter 9 extends the information in chapter 8 to consider the effect of combining acquisition and learning and then applying them to a teacher training program. This chapter defines an appropriate balance of acquisition and learning that should be applied to online teacher training in order to give potential instructors the most effective and comprehensive training program to be fully prepared to teach online. Ideally, as this chapter demonstrates, this training should occur before an instructor has the opportunity to teach online, but can be implemented at any time. This chapter provides the set up and organization for chapter 10, when the program suggestions are given in their entirety.

This text has defined acquisition and learning and identified their role in educational processes. In chapter 10, these terms are applied specifically to online teacher training. Using the information garnered throughout chapters 1 – 9, this chapter provides suggestions regarding potential course offerings for a formalized training program in online pedagogy. In order to be most comprehensive, this chapter begins with the concept of a graduate-level degree program in online pedagogy. Any and all aspects of the potential courses can be modified based on institution, discipline, time or budget constraints, or a different level training program such as a certificate program, which will be discussed in chapter 11.
