Enhancing Collaboration, Enriching Student Outcomes

This course is designed for general and special education teachers who currently, or plan to, engage in collaboration. The focus of the class will include: the continuum of service delivery options for meeting student needs, refining the planning process to ensure effective service delivery, matching appropriate service delivery methods to student needs, the consultative process, academic engagement, effective differentiated instruction, planning and scheduling.

This class is designed for teacher teams and will include opportunities for teaming. Administrator attendance is welcome, as administrative support helps to facilitate successful collaboration. Teams are expected to bring curricular materials to plan a lesson or unit based on the instructional needs of their learners. If participants have access to current district/student data (ITBS/ITEDs, IEP goal data, classroom data), please bring these materials as well.
