Collaboration Among Professionals, Students, Families, and Communities: Effective Teaming for Student Learning

Stephen B. Richards (University of Dayton, USA),Catherine Lawless Frank (University of Dayton, USA),Mary-Kate Sableski,Jackie M. Arnold (University of Dayton, USA)

Collaboration Among Professionals, Students, Families, and Communities provides a foundation for understanding concepts of collaborative learning along with strategies for the application of collaborative skills in teaching. The book moves logically from issues of macro-collaboration (district and school) to micro-collaboration (individual student focus and co-teaching) in K-12 environments before concluding with strategies for family and community collaboration. Significant emphasis is placed on knowledge, skills, and teaching models for pre-service and in-service teachers in general education, special education, and of diverse students including English Learners.
