The interest in and demand for online terminal degress across
disciplines by professionals wishing to conduct research and
fulfill doctoral degree requirements at a distance is only
increasing. But what these programs look like, how they are
implemented, and how they might be evaluated are the questions that
challenge administrators and pedagogues alike. This book presents a
model for a doctoral program that bridges theory, research, and
practice and is offered completely or largely online. In their
described program model, Kumar and Dawson enable researching
professionals to build an online communtiy of inquiry, engage in
critical discourse within and across disciplines, learn from and
with experts and peers, and generate new knowledge. Their program
design is grounded in the theoretical and research foundations of
online, adult, and doctoral education, curriculum design and
community-building, implementation and evaluation. The authors, who
draw on their experience of implementing a similar program at the
University of Florida, not only share data collected from students
and faculty members but also reflect on lessons learned working on
the program in diverse educational contexts. An important guide for
program leaders who wish to develop and sustain an online
professional doctorate, An Online Doctorate for Researching
Professionals will also be a valuable resource for higher education
professionals seeking to include e-learning components in existing
on-campus doctoral programs.
