First, literature research and investigation research was conducted to develope teachers inservice program on co-teaching. Second, experimental research was executed to validate the effect of the program. In the experimental research, 10 subjects were employed including 5 general education teachers and 5 special education teachers for 5 weeks. During this period, they had online lessons on co-teaching and interactions with program manager and inter-subjects on the web. After the web-based teachers inservice program on co-teaching was applied to teachers, the program was validated on suitability and application effectiveness. The suitability of the program was examined by learners`` satisfaction with web-based learning. The application effectiveness of the program was investigated by comparing subjects`` pre and post-test on knowledge domain, understanding domain and contents analysis on web-based learning activities materials. The conclusions drawn from the results and discussion were as follows. First, the contents of web-based teachers inservice program on co-teaching was developed through contents analysis, purpose establishment, contents selection and organization. The web-based teachers inservice program on co-teaching was developed through analysis, design, production, evaluation and revision of web-based teaching·learning system design model. The web-based teachers inservice program on co-teaching was consisted of 5 domains such as understanding about special education, understanding about inclusion, understanding about co-teaching, co-teaching practice, adaptation and social ability improvement of students with disabilities. Second, in evaluation of suitability of the program, the participated learners were satisfied with web-based teachers inservice program on co-teaching. From these results it was suggested that contents construction, teaching·learning activities and production area such as information design, interaction design, motivation design, evaluation design and convenience for learners should be considered in development of web-based instruction program. In evaluation of application effectiveness of the program, general and special education teachers`` knowledge about co-teaching and inclusion was improved very much. Teachers`` understanding about co-teaching, co-teachers`` cooperation, all students and co-teaching implementation was changed from negative or neutral to positive attitude. From these results it was suggested that knowledge and understanding about co-teaching and inclusion can be improved by teachers inservice education and that the web-based teachers inservice program on co-teaching was conductive to promote co-teaching competence of general and special education teachers. Finally, this study showed that the web-based teachers inservice education is useful not only to solve problems of the present teachers inservice education such as lack of system, opportunity for inservice education and difficulty on attendance education but also to contribute improvement of teachers`` professionalism for qualitative education.
