This edited volume examines co-teaching and integrated service delivery for English learners (ELs). Through research and documentary accounts, it explores the collaborative instructional cycle--co-planning, co-instruction, co-assessment, and reflection practices--of co-taught programs for ELs. This volume presents current, classroom-based,…

While computer science is widely recognized as crucial for all U.S. high school students, challenges persist for teachers' pedagogical, content, and culturally responsive-sustaining education. In this paper, we explore how a co-teaching model with an experienced CS instructor shaped three novice CS teachers' knowledge while implementing Advanced…

Purpose: This research investigated whether structuring an inquiry-oriented professional learning network to include school-based co-teaching partners would amplify educators' success in taking up and adapting evidence-based understandings and practices as meaningful in their contexts. Our research questions were: (1) What conditions did educators…

Despite field experiences being especially valuable for physical education teacher education programs, the concerns and issues that are often faced by teacher candidates can make for less-than-ideal experiences. Variability in the quality and satisfaction of field placements have led programs to seek ways to maximize their quality mentors while…

A doctoral research study using the Delphi method of gathering expert opinions and agreement covering the material and organization of training sessions of cooperating teachers. Researchers sent surveys in 3 separate rounds requesting input and/or agreement on topics experts suggest to include in training modules for cooperating teachers. In round…

An interdisciplinary team-teaching session was introduced to high school students who participated in the Oakland University William Beaumont Future Physician Summer Enrichment Program. The rising prevalence of adolescent obesity necessitates innovative educational strategies that effectively engage high school students in understanding the…

Co-teaching as a service delivery model requires a special education teacher and a general education teacher to efficiently and effectively collaborate in the same classroom, providing support to students with disabilities in the general education setting. With the vast changes and demands of the educator and the student population in today's…

This study explores the large-scale involvement of Chinese enterprises in teaching-focused university-industry collaboration (TFUIC), drawing upon the theoretical perspective of resource dependency. Based upon content analysis of Ministry of Education-selected exemplary cases and semi-structured interviews with corporate insiders, the study not…

While prior research has illustrated the strengths of collaborative teaching between sociology and English, less has examined the potential of cross-listed courses, instead largely focusing on how to bring writing instruction into the sociology classroom. Similarly, other work has explored the possible uses of literary examples "within"…

Emerging research shows teachers and architects perceive higher numbers of affordances for learning in innovative learning environments (ILEs) than in traditional classrooms. Yet, offering ILEs alone will not bring about significant changes to teacher practices nor students' learning experiences. Supporting teachers to perceive and utilise spaces…

Co-teaching has been proposed as a meaningful method in addressing the challenges that can accompany classroom diversity. In the present study teachers' attitudes were investigated regarding co-teaching and the inclusion of students with disabilities in general classes. A total of 104 early childhood educators responded to a questionnaire (51.9%…

Much scholarship available on team-teaching focuses on K-12 programming, with limited examples in post-secondary education. Adding to the growing research on college-level team-taught courses, this reflection describes how interdisciplinary team-teaching can offer not only a pedagogically innovative experience for students but also highlight the…

Many schools have employed inclusion practices as an instructional framework, meaning general and special educators are expected to coteach students with disabilities in the general education classroom. The research problem at the local study district was that inclusion as an instructional framework challenged the roles of general and special…

Higher education institutions had to quickly adapt to teaching and learning during COVID-19. Border closure meant students were stuck offshore and had to learn from afar. This meant a revolutionary change had to be quickly introduced by the teaching team. As for the students, this meant, experiencing teaching and learning in a new way. In this…

In 2016, researchers from two educator preparation programs (EPPs) in two differing states (southeast and west) chose to examine the intervention of co-teaching during student teaching that had been in place for 3 years in each of their locals. The researchers wanted to (a) identify and articulate the co-teaching model within the context of each…
