Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the purposes, influences and problems of using internet for professional development of the tertiary level EFL teachers in Bangladesh. Using internet for academic and professional resources can improve EFL teachers’ expertise to a great extent. Therefore, increasing its effective uses and removing its barrier are just the need of time. The study finds that, although tertiary level EFL teachers are aware of benefits of internet and using internet for their professional development, they are facing a number of problems, like poor internet speed, high cost, lack of institutional support, workload, lack of technological skill and lack of proper training. Based on the findings this paper will also recommend some possible solutions of these problems.
