BACKGROUND: Teaching online and cross-discipline teaching are new experiences for many instructors. AIM: Our aim was to solicit the experiences of a group of College of Education faculty about teaching medical professionals in an online master's degree in education program. METHOD: We used a focus group approach (eight instructors) to explore and gain a deeper understanding about teaching medical professionals by instructors who are in cross disciplines (e.g., nonmedical backgrounds). RESULTS: The data were analyzed using a qualitative thematic analysis approach. Six themes emerged from the instructors' comments about online teaching to medical professionals compared with other students they have taught in a classroom setting. CONCLUSION: This study has implications for online teachers and for those who are planning cross-discipline teaching programs.
