Abstract

ABSTRACT This is a work of applied action research to examine the collaborative teaching efforts between general education teachers and special education teachers at Centurion Elementary School. This research includes the involvement of stakeholders and the researcher as a collaborative group with the intent to increase collaborative teaching in the general education classroom, where students with special needs and their peers without disabilities are educated. The methods used are professional development in the area of cooperative teaching, classroom observations, the development of an observation checklist, and teacher-group discussions. A program evaluation is included.
