Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This qualitative research study was conducted in a middle class, suburban school district. The purpose of this study was to identify co-teacher perceptions of the co-teaching model. This study was designed to elicit perceptions of general and special education teachers in co-teaching partnerships concerning the impact of student performance, which models of co-teaching improve student performance, and the essential factors needed for co-teaching. Instruments used for data collection included a Likert-scale survey, semi-structured interview questions, and benchmark assessments. There were 23 participants that volunteered to complete both the pre and post surveys and 12 co-teachers that completed semi-structured interview questions. The results from this study indicated the majority of co-teachers believed both general and special education students have benefited from the co-teaching model. Co-teachers also identified the necessary factors that must be in place for co-teaching models they use on a regular basis and which models they believed improved student performance.
Book Synopsis Teacher and Student Perceptions of the Effectiveness of Co-teaching Models by : Randa G. Keeley

This book was released on 2014 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Co-teaching is an accepted teaching model for inclusive classrooms. This study employed a quantitative approach to ascertain the perceptions of both students and teachers of the five most commonly used co-teaching models (i.e., One Teach/One Assist, Station Teaching, Alternative Teaching, Parallel Teaching, and Team Teaching). Additionally, using an analysis of variance (ANOVA) with repeated measures for statistical analysis, this study compared student responses to teacher responses to ascertain the presence of both main effects and interactions. It was found that differences in student and teacher perceptions regarding the five co-teaching models existed in specific categories and that student and teacher perceptions of the different co-teaching models were largely contradictory in specific areas.
Book Synopsis Early Career Teachers' Perceptions of Their Preparation for and InitialExperiences in Co-Taught Classrooms by : Cynthia Thrasher Shamberger
Download or read book Early Career Teachers' Perceptions of Their Preparation for and InitialExperiences in Co-Taught Classrooms written by Cynthia Thrasher Shamberger and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many general education and special education teachers report being unprepared for the challenges of serving students with disabilities in the general education classroom (Kloo & Zigmond, 2008; Rea & Connell, 2005) and lacking skills necessary for co-teaching and collaborating within the school community (Grant & Gillette, 2006; Little & Theiker, 2009). The purpose of this study was to survey general and special education teachers (n=149), who were recent graduates of one teacher education program in the southeastern Unites States, on their perceptions of the effectiveness of their teacher education program in preparing them to co-teach. Variables included area of certification, years of experience, co-teaching experience and personal demographics along with descriptions of the extent that co-teaching was perceived to have been discussed, modeled, observed, and coached during the teacher education program and later practiced in classroom settings. Most participants were female, taught at the elementary level, held a bachelor's degree, and had three or less years of teaching experience. Results indicated many graduates had some orientation to co-teaching and perceived the teacher education program as relatively effective in preparing them to co-teach. However, data suggest variation in the amount of exposure to co-teaching preparation, field experiences, and subsequent skill attainment for co-teaching across the program. Additionally, implementation of co-teaching practices varied among participants, as did experiences and satisfaction with the co-teaching model. These findings may inform the teacher education program in future decision making to benefit future teacher candidates by providing enhanced course content and field experiences that focus more directly on acquisition of co-teaching knowledge and skills.

Book Synopsis Teachers' Perceptions of the Impact of Collaboration on the Effectiveness of Co-teaching by : Angela M. Hughes
Download or read book Teachers' Perceptions of the Impact of Collaboration on the Effectiveness of Co-teaching written by Angela M. Hughes and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions of regular education teachers and special education teachers related to the impact of collaboration on the effectiveness of co-teaching. Participants included K-8 regular education teachers and special education teachers employed by one school district in southeastern Pennsylvania. Thirty-four teacher participants, 19 regular education teachers and 15 special education teachers, participated in a researcher designed online survey consisting of demographic questions, 37 Likert questions and four open-ended questions. Seven participants answered researcher designed interview questions. Both regular education teachers and special education teachers acknowledged student success in the co-taught classroom that provided an environment where all student needs could be met through individualization and differentiation. Regular education teachers and special education teachers concurred that there was a need for common planning time and professional development opportunities; however, the findings indicated that there were inconsistencies with designated common planning time and a lack of professional development activities. Both participant groups also indicated a need for program evaluation related to co-teaching. Regular education teachers' perceptions largely aligned with the special education teachers'; however, some discrepancies were identified regarding training opportunities, as well as the lack of clarity between the expectations of regular education teachers and special education teachers.
Book Synopsis Teachers' Perceptions of the Benefits and Challenges of Co-teaching Relationships by : Melanie Holland
Download or read book Teachers' Perceptions of the Benefits and Challenges of Co-teaching Relationships written by Melanie Holland and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study sought to identify the benefits and challenges of co-teaching as reported by middle-school special education and general education teachers. In addition, this study aimed to determine the roles of both the special educator and the general educator within the co -teaching relationship and how those roles were decided. The research was performed in a suburban middle school with 7 English language arts teachers consisting of 3 special educators and 4 general educators. Data were collected using an anonymous survey and individual interviews. The research showed that the benefits included more behavioral support in the classroom, increased support for struggling students (regardless of special-education designation), and the collaboration and sharing of teaching strategies. The challenges that emerged from the research included lack of common planning time, inconsistent co-teacher pairings, differentiating for a large range and number of students with individualized education programs (IEPs), and undefined co-teacher roles in the classroom. Overall, the teachers considered co-teaching to be a valuable method of including special education students in the general education classroom. Future research would be useful in determining the best strategy for providing the co-teaching environment while also providing a common planning time for co-teachers as well as district-provided professional development to enhance their relationship. Keywords: co-teaching, inclusion, special education, differentiation, co-teaching roles.
Book Synopsis Teachers' Perceptions of Co-teaching by : Tyler Marshall Long
Download or read book Teachers' Perceptions of Co-teaching written by Tyler Marshall Long and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Co-teaching has been developed as an instructional approach to support students with disabilities in general education classrooms. Co-teaching as an instructional method has been found to be one effective solution for how schools can effectively provide an individualized education for students with disabilities, within the least restrictive environment, in order for them to meet the standards of No Child Left Behind. This study was conducted to examine the academic and social benefits of co-teaching for students with special needs. The researcher examined what teachers perceive co-teaching to be and how those teachers are implementing the model based on their personal beliefs. Participants in this study included four teachers, two general education and two special education teachers, with an average of 11.25 years of total teaching experience. Data was collected from surveys, observations, and a review of attendance records and discipline referrals. WESTEST results were also examined to see if the effectiveness of the co-teaching method concerning student achievement in the content areas of reading and math. This study found that from an academic standpoint, special needs students can successfully retain content material from participating in the co-taught classroom, particularly in the subjects of math and reading. Socially, the researcher found that the attendance and behavior of special needs students did improve as well. Based on this studies results, co-teaching appears to be an effective instructional option for meeting the social and academic needs of students with disabilities.
Book Synopsis Co-teaching in Inclusion Classrooms by : Margaret Erin Keene
Download or read book Co-teaching in Inclusion Classrooms written by Margaret Erin Keene and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was an investigation of co-teaching and inclusion practices at the secondary level. In the explanatory sequential mixed-methods study, regular education co-teachers as well as special education co-teachers offered insights by their participation in a survey and focus groups. This study investigated co-teacher perceptions of inclusion and how their perceptions of inclusion and co-teaching influenced the extent of teacher use of elements of Dr. Friend’s co-teaching models. The study also investigated and identified the needs of co-teachers. -- Co-teaching is defined as “two or more professionals delivering substantive instruction to a diverse, or blended, group of students in a single space” (Cook & Friend, 1995, p. 1). The development and implementation of co-teaching came as a response to the 1990 revision of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and the requirement that students be educated in the Least Restrictive Environment (Shoulders & Krei, 2016). Co-teaching has allowed students with disabilities the opportunity to be supported by an additional teacher as they are educated in regular education classrooms alongside their typically developing peers (Hang & Rabren, 2009). If teacher attitudes and perceptions in the area of inclusion and co-teaching can be identified and articulated and those perceptions can be brought to the attention of principals and district personnel, the learning and instruction of all students in inclusion classrooms may be impacted. -- This study found that both regular and special education co-teachers had a favorable view of co-teaching and inclusion. They agreed that it is effective, and co-teaching provided more instructional intensity than teaching alone. This study also found that while One Teach/One Assist was the most used co-teaching model, Team Teaching was identified as the most ideal model for effective co-teaching. In addition, co-teachers cited content knowledge of co-teachers, compatibility of co-teachers, common planning, positive perspectives of inclusion, and training as needs for successful co-teaching.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this qualitative case study was to investigate the training and implementation of co-taught classrooms at secondary schools in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Studies have advocated the use of this special education intervention at the elementary levels; however, little research has demonstrated its effectiveness at the secondary levels. The research design chosen for this case study was qualitative (Creswell, 2015). The rationale for using this design was that it offers the ability to evaluate co-teaching practices as it relates to classroom environment and perceptions of co-teachers on the secondary level. Qualitative data was collected through Likert scale statements, open-ended questions posed in a survey, and interview questions conducted by an independent researcher (Creswell, 2015). The primary purpose of exploring the implementation of co-teaching methods at the secondary levels was to determine the inclusive models and strategies teachers use, and to evaluate the co-teaching practices as it relates to classroom environment and the perceptions of co-teaching relationships of secondary educators. A discussion regarding these findings and limitations will follow the presentation of the data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this qualitative case study was to identify the perceptions of regular education teachers and special education teachers regarding both co-teaching in inclusion classes and the professional development opportunities considered important for effective co-teaching. Data were collected from 19 regular education teachers and 16 special education teachers in one school district through the use of surveys, open-ended questions, and observations of six co-teacher dyads. The results demonstrated that although regular education teachers and special education teachers were generally satisfied with the co-teaching experience, co-teaching guidelines and additional professional development opportunities would be beneficial.
