Teaching for Results: Best Practices in Integrating Co-Teaching and Differentiated Instruction

Autor Matthew J. Jennings
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 aug 2012
Collaborative teaching has the potential to improve the performance of both students and teachers. However, this method is not regularly capitalized in many schools because teachers who are assigned to co-teach often lack task-specific knowledge and skills to better prepare them. Fortunately these skills can be learned. In addition to establishing a solid foundation of teamwork skills, Teaching for Results will explain how to use the structure of co-teaching to practically and effectively implement differentiated instruction in their classrooms. This essential guide will demonstrate to readers how to use best practices in differentiated instruction in order to effectively co-manage, co-assess, co-plan, and co-instruct a diverse group of learners in any general education classroom.

Recenzii

Teaching for Results: Best Practices in Integrating Co-Teaching and Differentiated Instruction is an excellent treatise on co-teaching [because it] lays out an approach to understanding and applying co-teaching in a manner that is practical, logical, and sensible.Moving from a well-founded theory of practice (co-teaching) to actual guidance for practice, Jennings provides practical explanations of key concepts-content validity, inter-rater reliability, and intra-rater reliability-as applied in a co-teaching situation, as well as practical, ready-to-use tools, such as an IEP summary sheet, a list of potential classroom routines, and a unit planning template. Teaching for Results is orderly, easy-to-follow, and offers a logical flow as it connects pre-implementation steps, assessment, planning, and instruction for co-teaching classrooms. By introducing chapters and key concepts with vignettes, the book comes alive by making logical connections between the theory of practice and actual practice. In conclusion.I highly recommend Dr. Jennings's book for any teacher or principal who is engaged in a co-teaching environment and for those who are even contemplating implementing co-teaching down the road.
Dr. Matthew Jennings has written a very practical and insightful book on collaborative teaching. School administrators interested in the intricacies and benefits of co-teaching, and individual teachers who want to improve their co-teaching techniques and effectiveness, can look to Teaching for Results as a primary resource. Dr. Jennings provides a clear explanation of how to develop an effective co-teaching partnership, create a collaborative classroom, and deliver instruction as a team in a way that leverages the knowledge, skills, and talents of the teachers and improves the quality of education for all studentsin the classroom. Furthermore, he lays out strategies for administrators to help develop more effective collaborative teaching within a school or district. As a school district superintendent, Dr. Jennings understands what administrators and teachers need to know in order to implement a successful practice. Teaching for Results is packed with useful guidance and is written in an engaging, understandable style. It is a must-read for any educator looking to engage in a collaborative teaching environment!
