Summary
"Collaboration and co-teaching are concepts that have long been central to inclusive education. More recently, evidence-based and high-leverage practices (EBPs and HLPs) have gained recognition as highly effective tools to improve student learning and behavior in both general and special education classrooms. High-leverage practices are the fundamentals of teaching. These practices should be used constantly and are critical to helping students learn important content. HLPs are also central to supporting students' social and emotional development. They are used across subject areas, grade levels, and contexts. They are "high-leverage" not only because they matter to student learning, but also because they are basic for advancing skill in teaching. Examples include explaining core content; posing questions about content; leading whole class discussions of content; setting up and managing small-group work; and composing, selecting, and adapting quizzes, tests, and other methods of assessing student learning. In this reader-friendly text, two of the nation's top experts in co-teaching provide a unique guide to implementing EBPs and HLPs through collaborative teaming practices. Melissa Jenkins and Wendy Murawski position collaboration as the bridge by which both HLPs and EBPs can be more effectively utilized for the success of all students in the classroom. Filled with strategies, practical examples, reflection questions, and tools like decision-making flow charts, their easy-to-use handbook belongs on the desk of every teacher working in an inclusive environment"--
